First "smart" pistol hits shelves in PRCalifornia

[Little-Acorn]

Now, when you wake up to find an intruder in your room, you can grab your gun, aim it at him... and nothing will happen, because you took off your watch and put it on the nightstand, as you do every night before going to sleep.

I can hardly wait to get one. I'll feel so much safer than with the old Beretta.

First ‘smart’ pistol hits shelves in California

The first so-called “smart gun” has hit the shelves at U.S. retail outlets, including one of the biggest firearms stores in California, according to the Washington Post. The Smart System iP1, a .22-caliber pistol made by the German gun-maker Armatix GmbH, can only function with an accompanying wristwatch, which is sold separately.

When the RFID-equipped watch is activated by a PIN number and placed near the gun — like when a shooter grips the handle — it sends a signal to unlock the gun and a light on the back of the weapon turns green, according to the report. Otherwise, the firearm stays locked and the light on the back remains red, it stated.

How many people have you shot?

I would never own one unless given to me, then the RFD part would be superglued to the grip.

Won't be long before there is legislation proposed to make this ridiculous design mandatory. Along with breathalizers in all vehicles.

We are fucked but good, friends. The progressive utopia is running full steam.
