Pretty fun idea, but like others have mentioned… with the benefits come more complications. I can think of better ways to secure a gun.

lmao hack it that’s great and so true xD
and yes, a fingerprinting gun that connects to a database of gun users wirelessly with all of their info. Without it gun remains locked….. I suppose you could hack it using some kind of frequency or wireless hack that targets the gun itself……………………… HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

There’s a corporate video by the manufacturer of this gun on youtube. It demonstrates how the gun goes off when it shouldn’t. Just search for armatix smart gun.
The video is authentic, it can also be watched on the manufacturers german website, but the Yutue version is commented in english.

The beautiful thing about firearms is they are relatively simple machines. This idea just complicates it and like other gadgets will be prone to failure. I accept no failure in a tool that may save my life.

Besides how long will it be before someone figures out how to hack this device?

Good until they steal your watch, especially if they kill you and take your gun. They should just embed a chip in peoples hands, or make them biometric so they are only work with one user.

This dumb idea and others like it just goes round and round. It continues to impress the hell out of people who don’t know sh#t about guns.

A few inches from the gun you say? You are a few inches from the bad guy who just wrestled the gun away from you or grabbed it from your holster. Bang.

A few inches from the gun you say? Your left hand is more than a few inches from your right hand. So, it’s not just an authorized person; it’s an authorized hand that can fire the gun.

And on and on…
