Dang it, NetZapper! I just hacked into Dianne Feinstein's PC, and she has cut and pasted your post on having built in GPS and a firing authorization center into a new bill! :barf:

Given the simplicity of what a gun does -- slam a pin into a bullet from a mechanical device -- of course this could be defeated. I'm sure they'll write up laws making it a federal felony to do so, but again this will only affect the law abiding.

I do hope they never make this technology a requirement for firearms, but honestly I would love to see it as an option. And I would FORCE LEO's to carry it, since as has been stated they are the most likely to be killed by their own weapons.

Although the smart guns could be defeated with some work, they would defeat the guy who wants to snatch a gun and immediately turn it around and pull the trigger.
