Near? No, the tech doesn’t even exist yet. Eventually (like 100 years), it won’t even be mandated, there just won’t be anything else.
They’re gunna hafta collect the 400,000,000 firearms in private hands first and I don’t see that happenin’. A least not without some degree of violence. So no.
“kill switch”
Yup.
(on my Mosin, the kill switch is known as a ‘trigger’.)
This assumes that technology will just proceed along at the same pace no matter what happens - I’m not saying politicians and Mad Scientist guys like Fauxi will not try forcing it on us at some point, of course, but if their current “gun control” measures work we won’t have ANY type of firearm available, chipped or not. We’ll be hunting squirrels and pigeons with slingshots - for survival, not sport - if the globalists have their way.
The “great reset” will have one beneficial aspect: A lot of that over-computerized, microchipped “smart” crap will go away.
Even without watching the video, I can envision in the near future guns that are “situation aware” starting with only working for the person whose fingerprints or other bio signature is imprinted into it. The next phase would be discerning whether the target is a person or not.
That should terrify anyone with a brain.
So we will have a smart gun that can recognize people.
Next will be a method of instructing the smart gun that yesterday’s bad guys are not protected and the gun will not fire when aimed at them......Do you see where this is going?
Conservatives bad.
Libs good.
A gun would be of zero help when dealing with a Jekyll and Hyde, and there are many of them.
What is a smart gun? Does it stream Dirty Harry movies?
And not very smart.
“are protected”
Yeah, but how do you train them to not fire for leftards? Have the gun run a Turing test first?
How about some smart politicians that can read the Constitution. If politicians can violate the Constitution then “we the people” can violate political laws.
I carry what and where I want.
"Concealed" means concealed!
Because they want 100% control over you and your possessions.
Seems the trend in DNA research is to engineer smart pathogens targeting specific races. Amongst totalitarians, ‘smart’ has a specific meaning.
“Because they want 100% control over you and your possessions”
What possessions?

On 21 November 2021, a Ford Escape SUV plowed into a Christmas Parade on the streets of Waukesha Wisconsin with 6 deaths and multiple injured. This is/was the description of the event from many on the LEFT which highlights a tendency of blaming the device from members of that spectrum.
Obvious question here. Could a 'SMART' car (much larger & more capacious for 'intelligence') been able to prevent or reduce the carnage from the driver, Darrell Brooks Jr.? Under what circumstances would "auto intelligence" take control away from a nut behind the wheel?
FYI: Mr Darrell Brooks Jr. is scheduled for the preliminary court hearing today in Waukesha County. At this appearance, the list of charges should be read out against him, including the previously filed 6 charges of 1st degree intentional homicide.
This is problematic for a number of reasons:
Gloves. It is not always going to be a warm sunny afternoon at the range when you want to fire your weapon. Something as simply as wearing a pair of gloves would render such an encumbered firearm useless.
Multiple users - suppose I want my immediate family members to be able to fire the weapon if needed? Ok, this could be solved with a lot of memory - scan everyone's palms, fingerprints, both left and right. Suppose I am incapacitated and a bystander wants to pick up my weapon and defend me and himself/herself? Oops, no-can do.
Less than perfect grip. Suppose I am injured, or firing around an obstacle I'm using for cover. I may not be able to get the perfect grip that unlocks the tech.
Suppose the sensors get dirty, bloody, wet, scratched/damaged? The weapon is now useless. There is no "time out while I clean my grips..."
Just read an AP story about a lawsuit against the company that sold the bullets in “the gun that was held by Alec Baldwin that killed a camera operator”...so maybe we need smart bullets, too.
So true.
