In 2013 I remember hearing about these modified rifles that supposedly give the shooter a 1,000 yd range with an 80%+ first shot success rate. I thought that is was just another stupid invention that would fall apart in a year or two. After all, who wants a rifle that takes no skill to shoot? That's the fun of shooting isn't it? Well, not too long ago they stopped taking orders and I thought that they were going out of business. Well, they came back shortly after and are doing quite well, from what I've heard. I find this highly unsettling. If people are actually buying this, what does that mean for the future of the traditional (non-electronic) rifle? The army is once again testing Tracking Point's optics as said here:

If the army accepts these things as standard, I worry that the popularity of these things will skyrocket. What do you guys think? Do "precision guided" rifles beat normal rifles?
