I think it has little do with reducing gun crime but rather making it less prone to accidents. If your gun is essentially a useless hunk of metal until you have it in your own hand then that's quite a nice safety mechanism to have.
I rather liked the palm-print gun in the latest James Bond. That won't deter psychos who own the guns outright from using them, but it would deter anyone who doesn't own the gun from picking it up and using it.
