Exactly my thought as well. I think the idea is on the right track and it has its merits, but overall this "locking" system will be expensive and have minimal benefits other than not allowing the gun to fire if stolen or handled by someone who is not in range of the wrist band.
The SAFEST way to store a gun in your home is in a bolted down number coded or key lock safe with your unloaded gun and magazine separate from the ammunition.
I think this "new" type of weapon lock system will lead to laziness because "no one can fire it even if its loaded, right?"
...just a thought.
Except that if there is a burglar, having a gun isn't going to do much good if it takes two minutes to even get it ready. Different families have different levels of success, though. My family always had the guns out in the open, on a mantle or rack. we were just told we weren't supposed to touch them, and were smart enough to leave them alone. It's mostly the idiots and crazies that wind up shooting their kids, or shooting their new neighbor for getting into a shed on their own property. I'm mostly not sure if this new system will help reduce casualties by the idiots and crazies.
