The problem with RFID is that you become a walking

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.

How would this bull**** scheme stop ONE murder by gun? If it
is my gun, I have the secret decoder ring and if I stole the
gun I would just jumper the "smart chip" out.


Oh, I don't know that the smartgun is *the* answer, but I do
know that at some point gun violence will cause a tipping point
and draconian anti-gun measures will pass and be enforced. Bet
on it.


Maybe the government will realize the war on drugs is a failure,
and use some other method to put drug dealers out of business.
Or maybe those liberals love black on black killing.


The first sentence in your post is fine. The second is the usual
rec.boats right-wing racist bull****.

Bull****. Most of the shootings in America are black on black, drug
related shootings!


Of course. See the O'Reilly post.
