Safe gun technology

The government must sponsor an urgent competition through DARPA to develop modern gun electronic triggers and electronic ammunition for general public and sports use that utilize GPS technology to ensure the weapons only operate outdoors. Traditional percussion weapons and ammunition sales will then be restricted to permitted authorized users.

Why is this important?

Gun technology has not changed in 100 years. The gun trigger and firing mechanisms in personal weapons are essentially the same as invented in the 1900's.

Today we need safer weapons that utilize modern computer technology. The government needs to sponsor a technology competition to develop them. The answer is to utilize GPS navigation technology so that general issue weapons will only work in open spaces using electronic trigger systems and electronic rounds. If the gun cannot sense GPS information, the electronic trigger will not operate and the electronic rounds will not fire.

This will allow sale of weapons and electronic rounds to sports people and general users without restriction. Persons wanting to purchase weapons that work indoors will need to pass rigorous background checks. Similarly persons wanting to purchase old percussion ammunitions will need special permits and those munitions will not be available for general retail sale.

This will allow people in public places indoors to be protected automatically while allowing legitmate gun sports to continue in line with peoples constitutional rights.
