The problem with RFID is that you become a walking billboard something
akin to carrying a cell phone every where you go announcing your

This is the sweetheart of the smart gun set

http://www.armatix.us/iW1-active-RFI...80.0.html?&L=7

the German-made Armatix iP1 gun requires the user to wear a
radio-controlled wris****ch, which uses microchips to communicate with
the firearm via a PIN code. But, as soon as the gun loses contact with
the watch—i.e. knocked out of the shooter's hand—it will automatically
deactivate itself, according to the company's website.

Armatix's Smart System also acts as a sort-of LoJack for the gun,
which can be tracked online if lost or stolen. For practice, turn on
the optional Target Control setting, and the weapon will function only
when pointed at a "permitted" target.

Not much of a home defense gun huh?

The accompanying waterproof watch, meanwhile, showcases the watch and
weapon's charge levels, offers time-controlled weapon deactivation,
and comes with interchangeable straps, as well as enough power to
handle 5,000 rounds or a minimum one year of standby. It also tells
the local time.

According to the International Business Times, the iP1 set is on sale
in California for about $1,800—$1,399 for the gun, and another $399
for the watch.
The .22 LR caliber Armatix iP1 pistol comes with a 10-round magazine,
various operating modes, and boasts an operating distance of up to 10
inches.



The technology will advance, if not here then overseas.

Homicide via gun, rate per 100,000 residents

USA 4.2

Germany 0.8

At some point the citizens of this country will have had enough of
murder by gun.
