More parts, more places to fail. So why bother? Because it's not about your safety

Exactly as planned
Why not use fingerprint to unlock gun?
At what point is there that piece of shit facial recognition gun. It defeats the point of a gun.
I cannot think of anything dumber than a facial I.D gun. Stupid. On what planet. Except for automated security systems with machine gun turrets.
Fingerprint guns have been around since Judge Dredd.
I was sure they came out before this press. I was also sure they used far more tech than conventional guns, not energy weapons, projectiles, but charged. It has been a concept for almost half a century. They have been out for a while, but the problem with them is they don't have much use, because hand held charged weapons haven't got any real range yet. Putting any recognition into normal guns, not running on batteries, just puts up the price tag and turns the gun into a useless toy. Unlocking your gun. What's up doc? The damn thing won't work, bang bang, got shot dead. Seriously stupid. Unless it already integrated it into its mechanics as an energy weapon.
No
If it has:
It's a TOY, not something to stake your life on.
Also true!
Not if it's firing the lasers, or charged projectiles, and these have a much better range, stopping power, than normal guns. And it also has replacement charge packs.
But yea at what point is there that gun, topic?
Imagine relying on it. Outgunned.
It needs to charge the gun, like a phone. Damn damn damn missed missed. Waits an hour to fire it again. Damn damn, shoot me already.
Idiots make this shit because idiots think it's innovative. They can sell sand to the camel. No idiot. The gun advanced before you made it even worse. Make a new gun firing something else or you're outgunned by everything else as you shit there trying to work out why the gun doesn't fire. Can you even strip that gun down? Camera broken. You invalidated the warranty.
