Gun Talk Ping List...

[deoetdoctrinae]

My “dumb” pistol (it only does what I tell it to) has never caused any problems, so I guess I’ll stay with it. ;)

[soycd]

No thanks. Too many points of failure. When you need your weapon to function, failure is not an option.

[dirtboy]

First ‘smart’ pistol hits shelves in California.

And for the most part I imagine it will stay on the shelves, other than having a couple of liberals buy them to try and make a pointless point.

[Yosemitest]

They'll get the owner killed. when they fail to work.
Leave them on the shelf at the store.

HOGWASH!!

"Smart" gun for stupid people.

No thanks.

[RepRivFarm]

The only way someone would be dumb enough to buy one of these is if they were mandated by law......and therefore the only choice for a new gun purchase.

How is government gonna get the millions of hand guns already out there? If they are grandfathered in, then my gun collection is gonna quintuple in value.......at the very least.

If they are required to be turned in.....well.....good luck with that! Lol.

The pistol sells for $1,399 and the watch retails for another $399 — more than double the cost of .40-caliber Glock handgun, according to the article. The company is betting that demand for the technology will increase as consumers seek guns modified for safety.

At $1,800 for a pistol, I'd say that is a very poor bet.

As many believe they are the only ones that should have access to lethal force Law Enforcement should be the first to carry this new technology.

We do want those who protect us to have safe pistols right?

Which department/agency will be the first to step up?

[Yo-Yo]

I have absolutely no problem offering this technology to those who want it and are willing to pay for it.

What I absolutely and fervently object to is mandating this technolgy on new guns, which is the direction Kalifornia is going.

Speaking of Kalifornia, all newly introduced handguns in that state must comply with the new Microstamping law. Does this firearm have Microstamping integrated into its firing pin and chamber?

[mindburglar]

James Bond had a watch that shot a bullet. I want one of them. Who needs a gun that tells time?

[relictele]

I hope it stays as lonely as Yoko Ono at a swingers’ convention.

[NewHampshireDuo]

This should be an easy one for hackers.

The gun might be smart but anyone that has one for more than plinking is stupid.

[Flintlock]

Call me when ALL the police have them—and they have proven to work PERFECTLY for-—say-—five years or so.

Wii tawded...

Since 1976, there has been the “Magna-trigger”, which was a finger ring, on the inside of which was a unique pattern of magnets that matched a set on the inside of the pistol grip.

While it works, sort of, most gun users put it in the category a “harassment” device, like trigger locks and microstamping, advocated by gun controllers, as just one of many other ways to make guns less useful, and to criminalize gun owners for not obeying all the rules.

The acid test for such things is if individuals think they want and need them, they can buy them. But almost immediately, the gun controllers demand that they be forced on those who don’t want them.

The pistol sells for $1,399 and the watch retails for another $399 — more than double the cost of .40-caliber Glock handgun, according to the article.

An RIA FS .45 retails for about $400.

Going to be one hell of a great year for the black market.

lets see... your house is getting broken into ...

you go to get your “smart gun”

but wait! liberals have made you put it in a cabinet!

ok, so you open the cabinet

but wait! liberals have made you put a trigger lock on it!

ok, so you unlock the trigger lock

but wait! liberals have forced you to store the ammo in a different location!

ok, so you go to that other location (which might also have to be locked) and get the ammo

but wait! your gun is one of the “smart guns” liberals have forced on you, so you also have to find the wrist band.

but wait! the batteries are dead in one or both!

gun wont work.

but wait! it doesn’t matter because, your dead

First off it’s a .22 and if G_D himself made it $1800.00 is a little high on price. Ruger SR-22 $359.00 with treaded barrel and a extra mag and it goes bang every time you pull the trigger. Keep it simple stupid and you will live longer.
