If people want them, and they end up on the market, that's fine with me. Just don't mandate them.

No.

 

[Gonzobird]

I would love to see what type of signal is coming from that watch and how easy it is to duplicate and control.

 

[Podmonkey]

Propaganda bullshit. The author needs to be strangled with their intestines.

 

[redtail]

Lies

 

[togmaster]

No they are not.

 

[That_FNG]

No we are the fuck not. Stop gas lighting.

 

[carpediem]

I call bullshit.....

 

[ManrisFrack]

Fuck that. Didn't they just mandate kill switches for cars - in one of the 'relief from the pain caused by governments' COVID response' bills no less?

Oh and then there's Canada and cutting off people from their electronically stored money because these bad, bad people had the gall to protest violations of their rights.

Again, FUCK THAT!

 

[Blimey]

Seems a dubious poll result. In time the tech on this could get good enough to have some use cases. As it is there are some who might benefit from being armed but cannot risk it (e.g. prison transport or something if there is a large risk of being disarmed).

I imagine long term (way long term) it could be evolved such that a camera on the gun would prevent it from shooting certain people. Somebody like putin might utilize that so that his own guards don't shoot him, for example.

I can absolutely see this becoming a very popular option for “our newly adopted brethren “ in the gun community during the plandemic. And amongst those who are on the fence about purchasing their first firearm. That is a very large amount of people as we’ve seen in the last 2 years , who will be all in on this, whether they/we admit it or not. The younger crowd of newbies will be all about the “tech” involved in it with absolutely no comprehension of what could go wrong

 

[2WheelGnnr]

as the article stated....I like the "old Fashioned Dumb ones"
"48% who expressed interest in old-fashioned dumb ones."
when I put my booger hook on the bang switch I want it to go bang!!!!!!

Gizmodo must have hired Jen Psaki and Shanon Watts to do their research. You can tell because of the strong stench of bullshit and horseshit mixed with rotten tuna fish.

We all know how trouble free smartphones are, RIGHT?

Or jam.

Let the cops try them our for a while first.

: A demo model of the Armatix iP1 is a .22 caliber smart gun that has a safety interlock is shown is at Engage Armaments May 1, 2014 in Rockville, MD

look at the date on that article
Indecision?
Keep the gun and the Casio watch

 

[ManrisFrack]

Speaking of the Armatix iP1 featured prominently at the top of that propaganda piece...

 

[Cooolone]

They polled 55% of supposed firearm owners and only did so in deep Democratic bastions...

Flawed bullshit poll...

And a failed & unproven technology as of yet! Magnets bypassed the RFID tech and batteries kill all...

 

[Dr. Evil]

Probably the same FUDD'S that don't think I should own an "assault weapon." I find it ironic the dumb ones want the Smart ones.

If someone called you on the phone and asked you if you owned guns what would you say? I know my answer would be no leave me alone. So I’m guessing only those that are fairly liberal answered yes to owning guns or this is completely fabricated.

This says a lot. Just 5% of gun owners surveyed by the American Journal of Preventative Medicine in 2019 said they would be very likely to purchase a smart gun. Dilute that down to “somewhat likely” and the figure hops up to just 13%.
I know they say prices dropped, but I’m in to guns and I couldn’t tell you what the prices are today or what they were in 2019.

 

[Apeman]

Or jam.

The cops guns will come with tech that can determine the skin color of the person the cop is pointing at, and then not allow it to fire unless it's white.

 

[dsdmmat]

Only if they mandate the government use them.

 

[Apeman]

Only if they mandate the government use them.

Yeah like the top tier health care plans they get for free while we pay up the ass for our shitty care

 

[Celt]

Propaganda to try to convince others that this is a good idea. It's a stupid as hell idea.

Most people experienced with a gun are comfortable firing/trying other guns, but don't try to blow smoke up my ass telling me 55% of Gun Owners want the technology. ANYTIME someone presents percentages you'd damn well better do some critical thinking about the question and the way it was posed especially with agenda driven Media. Personally I'm waiting for the Disintegration Ray Gun that vaporizes targets leaving nothing but dust....THOSE will be "warmed up to" very quickly.

 

[Phazer]

No.

Ditto.

 

[Shadow2]

55% of the liberal gun owners they asked.

 

[Acer-m14]

i didn't get a call for this poll .. not a NRA member i guess is why ...
