One idea involves the use of radio frequency tags that would allow officers to pinpoint where other cops are in the city, Browne said.

Not that this could ever fall into the hands of the bad guys... LOL.

What did one gun say to the other gun.....? Sup?

Where's Commissioner Gordon when you need him? Just fire up the Bat Signal and be done with it!

Lost or stolen guns will be in demand by the bad guy. You could code this hypothetical signal uniquely to each gun and shut the signal down when the gun was reported stolen.

But two officers draw on a guy with a gun - and the “friendly” signal goes off as they signal each other - do they hesitate?

Or Edwards’s gun would have said “friendly” and the officers would have known friendly was the partner next to them and not realized it was Edwards’s signal.

I can hear them now....

Look out mo fo. I blow you (blankity blankity) head right off your (mudder frogging) shoulders. Wo is you bro!

Maybe they can use RFIDs that will surely be cloned to nearly every gun the gang-bangers own.

I can't wait until the next gang war and an NYPD dispatcher thinks Precinct A and Precinct B are having a civil war.

I’m sure automatic communication between hand-held loaded firearms won’t have any downside. /sarc
