Surprising Support Among Americans For Purchasing Smart Guns (jhsph.edu)

Lucas123 writes: A new survey from Johns Hopkins revealed that 59% percent of Americans, if they were to buy a new handgun, are willing to purchase a smart gun. More surprisingly, the web-based survey of almost 4,000 people found that four in 10 gun owners and 56% of political conservatives would buy a smart gun. "The results of this study show that there is potentially a large commercial market for smart gun technology," said Julia Wolfson. "This has been one of the biggest arguments against smart guns, that people just don't want them. This research shows otherwise."

I'll think about it when the police and secret service are forced to use nothing but these so-called "smart" guns. You can bet your ass that they'll be exempted from any such requirement.
