ORIGINAL: mnottertail Yeah, the watch didnt look that magic, looked like any of the cheap ass jap movement watches out there to be had from every foreign retailer like Walmart, and I seriously doubt you go around eye-fucking watches all day to check their brand. I bet if it does pervade your concious, it doesnt even go as deep as its gold, its black, its silver, its gold and silver...........thats stretching incredulity there, beyond any inherent elasticity. Criminals are attentive to things that impact their trade, things the rest of us rarely notice (for an example, see here). Another point to be made is that an ammunition failure can be cleared. You might still survive, with luck. The failure of a "smart" system to release use of the weapon is Game Over. I'm not against smart weapons in principle, but the ones I've seen are nowhere near "smart" enough. What if my hands are too dirty for it to get a good enough fingerprint match? What if the only available weapon is keyed to my wife because it's her gun? What if... yeah, no. K. What if you are wearing gloves
