I want no silicon diodes coming between the trigger and the primer ever no way
Agreed, but there are a number of ways that the firing of the weapon could be done conventionally, but the mechanism inhibited from operating by means of a remote system, which is what this patent does. They describe using biometric sensors (like a fingerprint) and other ways to enable the gun to operate, but nothing of the details about how the inhibiting function would be integrated with the actual firearm. Most likely it would require an electrical actuator like a solenoid or motor that would lock up the trigger, or something like that.
A wholly bad idea, but this patent cites much prior art, since there’s nothing new about the basic concept.
