Such devices would have to remain charged to work, and would have to be as hardy and weather-proof as the weapon itself.
Finally, when the electronics malfunction (and they will), the manufacturer can be held liable for the results. The current law shielding weapons manufacturers states that the company cannot be sued when their product is used in a criminal manner, IIRC. Failure to function is still valid under tort.
Thank you. But doesn’t it seem redundant to establish a tort claim or law that agrees with common sense? A gun has no brain, no nervous system, and no feelings either way. It is a tool. It serves a purpose that is defined by it’s use only by the user. To have to save harmless companies that make them when the first recorded use was in the 14th century and they were all over Europe in 1380, over 100 years before Columbus got here, to stop people from trying to cheat people, is disheartening. This is anti-liberal law making. We’ve got an infestation of them in this country. Sure is a waste of time and money.
