Kinda like "onstar" in your gm vehicle. But, can it also give you directions to Billy Bobs Burger Barn? My choice, NEVER EVER even think about buying a stupid "smart" gun.

Why would a decent, law abiding citizen have anything to worry about with this feature? </sarc>

Mine already have kill switches. Not remote ones tho. Except as needed.

Well, if the do-it-yourself 3D gun-printing industry needed any incentives, I guess having big name manufacturers moving toward kill switch implementation would do it.

Gun enthusiasts knew that this would be the norm years ago when “smart” gun technology was first proposed.

I probably shouldn’t have noticed that this was invented in Germany.

I thought a firearm WAS a remote kill switch. /s

This is for your safety and for the children. It’s the OnStar version for firearms.

I thought about this a long time ago. Now seeing it patented, I’m tempted to try to think of all the other evil things that a gun-grabbing tyrant might want to do, patent them, and then refuse to license them to anyone.

If this worthless piece of trash is mandated, I’d bet there will be plans on the Internet to convert it to a real firearm before it even hits the stores. I consider the cost of disabling the SmartGun feature to be part of the cost of buying one of these - and only if no real firearms can legally be sold.

Gosh, what a surprise. “You can keep and bear arms, sure, but you can’t shoot them without permission.” There are, as of 2009, some 310 million firearms in the United States. There are certain prohibitionists who think if they get the right laws passed they’ll all be turned in. They’ll be used before that happens.

And of course it will be a severly punished federal felony to tamper with or render obsolete the technology.
