I've been wondering what is Remington thinking with this Electronic, called the Electon-X Rifle. Is it a legal maneuver or a polictical maneuver? Surely they don't think this thing will really sell......or do they?
Its elecronically fired using a computer board and a 9volt battery in the stock, requires a special key to turn it on, and uses special ammo that can only be fired from this type gun. All these great features for only $1900.00........I'd better run down to my gun dealer and put a deposit down so I'll be sure to get one!!
I really think Remington will make a few, try to sell them and can't find any takers, then their lawyers can say " Well we tried to market a smart gun but the public would not buy it". It might help in the court room, but what worries me is a few more anti-gun nuts get elected and they say, well folks would'nt buy your "smart gun"? Well we elitist politicians can fix that......now that you have proven you(gun manufactures) have the technology to make "smart guns", we'll just make it a law that "smart guns" is the only type of firearm you may manufacture.
I think Remington is testing dangerous water, and in the long run we all may suffer.
