The government made comcast, dumbass.
We could have hundreds of small ISP's and real competition instead, if it wasnt for "Big Government" lovers like yourself.
Mag safeties suck hard, and least the ones Ive worked on. Just recently took one out of a gun, to vastly improve its cycling and accuracy, also made it far easier to dissasemble and clean, and less dangerous to handle.
Complexity is a huge negative in firearms.
If you don't understand the strength of feeling against these tools of oppression, please consider
There are pre-existing laws on the books mandating this technology once it is commercially available. So it will get unwillingly shoved down someone's throat. How would you feel if there was a law mandating that you must use a BB if RIM develops a new one, and outlaws other phones ?
This technology will radically increase the failure rate of the devices. There is a reason why firearms have no electronics in them, and why their basic design has not changed in over 100 years, and that is reliability. It is literally life and death, so fractions of a fracton of a percent count.
Do you see the police and military clamoring for this technology ? If this stuff is so good, don't you think they would be champing at the bit to get ahold of it ?
What you see may be a small startup with an exciting new technology. What they see is a opportunistic vulture looking to abuse a law to get goventment granted monopoly and deliver a fake product.
