And, this technology might work well with phaser beams and sci-fi shit like that, but could you imagine the cost involved to retrofit this technology on an old-school Mosin or simple wheel-gun?
Dude they already got a plan/bill in the U.S. Senate (the cost? no problem, the government will pay for the retrofit... your tax dollars at work):
http://redalertpolitics.com/2014/02/20/sen-markey-introduces-bill-for-personalized-handguns/Some highlights... or lowlights:
Called the “Handgun Trigger Safety Act,” [Of course! For the children!] Markey unveiled the bill in Boston, Mass., on Wednesday [Feb. 12, 2014] before a crowd of local elected officials, gun control activists and members of the clergy. The legislation requires all new guns to be equipped with “personalized” technology to ensure that only the owner can operate it.
...
The Massachusetts Democrat’s bill would require all handguns manufactured in the United States two years from the law’s enactment to be personalized. Additionally,
businesses or individuals selling a handgun would be required by law to retrofit the firearm with personalization technology three years from the enactment date. The cost of retrofitting the guns would be covered by a fund overseen by the Department of Justice.
“This is the type of gun legislation that everyone — regardless of political party or affiliation — should be able to support,” Markey said.

Yeah, right. Is this guy even more delusional and/or ignorant than the average elected official or what? I'd be surprised if anyone on this forum can read the whole article without having elevated blood pressure or laughing hysterically... unfortunately for me, I'm the elevated blood pressure type.
