Wow. Just...wow.

 

[JWarren]

I'm speechless.


Actually, I'm not.

Indoctrination anyone? Oh, I DARE someone to use one of these with my kid.

Would gloved defeat that expedient? Would CPS take person's kids away for torturing them?

 

[WoofersInc]

Unbelievable.. Whats next? Why not just put anti-talk collars around their necks similar to the anti-bark collars dogs have. Children are supposed to be seen and not heard after all. Yeah. This is so much better than parents taking responsibility to teach their kids today:banghead:

OK.... I admit it. I was planning on that.

Joking aside....

I am wondering... what would the company's liability be if a kid who had this deviced used on him DID do something to get hurt or hurt others?

There is a paradox in the product, I think--the people most likely to find it appealing and therefore most likely to buy it are probably the people most likely to NOT own firearms....

I hope.

[Claude Clay]

that is patently absurd

 

[Regolith]

Wouldn't that be considered child abuse?

 

[Valkman]

They will probably be required in CA by next year!

Horrible idea.

Next: Electrically charged silverware to modify eating behavior...

It might actually work for Rosie O'Donut...

 

[FieroCDSP]

that is patentally absurd

Which is exactly why it's going to berequired from manufacturers in the next weapons ban.

 

[cobrian45]

Huh. Glock grip anyone? Silly device. This might tie into the thread about an electric shock causing a AD/ND. IMHO, I think that regardless of how much electric shock you think it would take to set off a round in a gun, it's just not smart to intentionally run a charge through a device intented to house minor explosive devices. Physics is a funny thing.

 

[Gingerbreadman]

I think that we should get together and patent as many ideas like this as possible, then not allow anyone to make or use them......

 

[LegalAlien]

Will obviously not work on any composite frame firearm . . . . .. worthless patent IMHO

 

[BlazingAngel01]

I could see someone file a lawsuit on this it a company does it.

 

[Autolycus]

You all realize that this is meant to keep unwanted hands from touching your guns right?

Here's an idea.... don't leave the laying on the kitchen table. I know... its a novel idea, and not near as cool as jacking a home guest up with electricity.


Seriously, who buys this? Like posted above... likely an anti-gun family. But how does that work? The kid has never seen a gun in the home... then he sees this laying on the coffee table and grabs it. After a brief bout with Shock Therapy, his eyes refocus.

Sounds a LOT like:

"It puts the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again."

[Old Fuff]

What with old age and such, the Old Fuff has a short memory span - like 10 seconds...

If he armed a pistol in this way he'd likely forget what he'd done...

And then...

Also he can think of better ways to deal with youngsters. But I agree that it will be proposed in California, Maryland, N.J., N.Y. Chigago ...

 

[Autolycus]

It could also be that someone is going through your belongings?

If you do not like it, then do not purchase it.

 

[illinisnare]

I like number 16 on the diagram. 'automatic' handgun.

Anyone ever use the shock pens that run on 2AA batteries? The pen thieves steer clear of my desk now at work.

But, for handguns, they should be stored safely and out of the reach of children.

 

[JWarren]

It could also be that someone is going through your belongings?

Goes back to not leaving it on the coffee table. The people I invite in my home don't go through my underwear drawer.

If they aren't invited in... well, that's not a problem. We are a Castle Doctrine state. Our crooks are stupid, but not that stupid.


Seriously, if a guest is handling your firearms unsupervised then you are being neglectful. Using this as a deterent is likely to get you shot if you DID have an intruder.

And it seems to be a sadist way to deal with guests-- which I am not altogether opposed to, but I would prefer a more direct method of telling people if I don't like them.

If you do not like it, then do not purchase it.

That's my plan. I just feel sorry for those in states who listen to "experts" with unproven ideas (and a book to sell) and then legislate according to it.

[Superlite27]

This is brilliant!

The argument that guns are bad is so illogical that anti-gunners have had to actually create a gun that causes injury BY ITSELF because they know that real guns don't.

This is a good thing! We know actual gun owners would never purchase something like this, so this just leaves anti-gunners. The first and only (non)firearm an anti-gunner might purchase is one that will shock the crap out of its owner!

Wow! I couldn't have planned a better method of torture for anti-gunners, and here they will be doing it to themselves!

Hmmmmmm.........KARMA!

 

[Floppy_D]

Any malfunctioning railgun already has this feature installed.

 

[Eric F]

Hey guys look for the good in every situation...............I say buy a bunch of these and sprinkle them around your comunities "hot spots" and let the fun begin. I for one will bring the pop corn!
