[QUOTE="Babagounj, post: 2988399, member: 12952"] Darn it, there goes another bright liberal anti-gun idea. [URL="http://www.breitbart.com/2nd-amendment/2017/07/26/man-defeats-top-smart-gun-tech-15-worth-magnets/"]Man Defeats Top 'Smart Gun' Tech with $15 Worth of Magnets - Breitbart[/URL] [SIZE=5][B]Despite decades of the reports that smart guns are based on theoretical technology that does not work in reality, leftists have gravitated to the German manufactured Armatix IP1 as the smart gun of the future.[/B][/SIZE] Problem #1: A hacker at a Colorado shooting range just showed how to completely sidestep the gun’s lock mechanism via the use of $15 of magnets. Problem #2: The same hacker showed how to the lock the gun—when it is supposed to be in fire mode—so that the gun’s owner cannot use it in self-defense. The Armatix IP1 ( The price [URL='http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2014/05/04/much-touted-smart-gun-only-chambered-in-22-lr-costs-1-800/']ranges[/URL] from $1,500 to $1,800 for an Armatix IP1 chambered in .22 long rifle. ) is designed to work when in close proximity with a watch that emits a certain radio frequency. When not close to the watch, the gun is designed to lock, which theoretically prevents it from being used by unauthorized persons. But the Daily Mail [URL='http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-4728218/Hacker-gets-smart-GUN-just-15-magnets.html']reports[/URL] that a hacker, who goes by the pseudonym Plore, bought $15 of magnets off [URL='https://www.amazon.com/']Amazon.com[/URL] and was easily able to bypass the gun’s locking mechanism.
