The Factories don't fight the trend..they'd love it if they could sell you a smartgun. The ones that don't hold the patents to the tech fight it, because they would be destroyed. To them I say -tough titties-. We don't let people who can't manufacture a car that doesn't spontaneously burst into flame sell their shitty jalopies either. If we decide to mandate smart guns as part of the compromise between having guns and the need to establish a baseline expectation of safety in our society..then smartguns it will be...and somebody will make a -killing- off of all the new guns people would buy. Perhaps we could use a portion of the proceeds..as we do for conservation, to fund the effort to reduce the amount of dumb guns. Or..if it were a conversion, we could subsidize some portion of the cost of conversion when possible. Bring in two old guns, get a voucher for one conversion for a third.
But sure, no matter what we do or what laws we pass some criminal asshole will find a way to circumvent the whole thing and do some fun crime or another with it. That's the portion of crime that you can't prevent without significant loss to fundamental liberty.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
