So when you need the gun to protect yourself or loved ones it won't work.
Gun hacking will be next and then AI determining if the threat is real.

Then the gun will report to the FBI that the gun was fired three times in two seconds and they need to dispatch agents.

If people WANT to buy it, fine.
Mandate it for everyone, nope.
Require it for all government and police and military. All of the Biden regime’s henchman guards.

Every time you shoot, it pauses and asks “Do you really need to fire another shot?” Put a new magazine in and have to re-verify again....

And if the battery dies, you die.
They have already had this 20 years ago and the key problem still exists.

If a $1,200 Smartphone has intermittent problems with facial recognition and fingerprint scans, and a measurable delay in access, what chance does a firearm have for 100% instantaneous recognition in an emergency situation? A store clerk pulling a gun from behind the counter has no time to line up the gun for “facial recognition”.

People are buying locks for their homes that open from a smartphone. The bolts and hardware are subpar by all accounts, but people have no problem tacking them on. Idiot Demos and swamp RINOs are going to go all in on this tech.
When the secret service and major PDs like NYPD, LAPD, Chicago PD all replace their service weapons with these, I might consider it. Never happen, but I’ll consider it.

When I read the headline I thought the gun applied facial recognition to the target. Shoot only at certain people or a designated target and not at others.

Facial recognitionβ¦
Stare into the end of the muzzle, smile and wait for the flash.

The local gun talk radio show host said antiques like his 1911 Colt would be ruined by sawing inside to comply with new biometric item placement.
So now government can shut off your electric car, make your cashless bank account go to zero, shut your home locks and windows, refuse your access to groceries, make your TV go blank and shut off your phone. And lock down your weapons.
“It’s a free country, go ahead.” Last heard a few years ago and mystifying to people soon.

“thought the gun applied facial recognition to the target. Shoot only at certain people or a designated target and not at others.”
Chinese facial recognition software plus such a gun could make living in the DC area very hazardous.
