I couldn’t buy something for a place called lode star.
Doesn’t NYS have a mandate to adopt this once it’s viable or is that just the mi prostrating BS? Tech in a weapon isn’t good if it is required for its function. The pin pad is useless and biometrics if not expensive can be spotty. So why would I want this as a failure point and a cost addition? The grip looks very clunky to me. No thanks.
Reported to be a $1,000 for a fun that would be about half that without the tech to fail.

Imagine, if you will, a world where at that particular moment, everything is battery or electric operated, you are connected, everything is going along smoothly, and then, all of a sudden, the lights go out due to a high altitude EMP or cyberattack...

Did anyone else notice that it appears to be Glock based? How long before someone buys one just to make a video of putting a switch in it?

IN the end I think if it comes to us reg folks to have them , then police should have them too, so no one can use a police gun in a crime....and see how fast they revoke that?!!! or it proves the technology is not always accurate!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think too much more than pulling a trigger is a liability in the long run. Im sure it cannot or wont be 100% reliable or proven. we;ve said that time and time agian...but someday we know someones gonna do it and then they are gonna push for this in the civilian market........but again...I think ALL have to use it them too........

NY will (probably) say it's the only handgun you are authorized to purchase (after all the licensing shit), and everyone will bitch and comply.

No.

Never happen. Police are a special class of citizen.

Imagine a world where the government feared the people, instead of the reverse.
