All non smart hand guns which are 99.9% of the market.
If you'd look at the legislation (and not just the chicken-little-the-sky-is-falling right-wing echo-chamber fodder), you'd see that all guns are to be retrofitted with smart-gun tech...and the entire cost would be borne not by the owners, but entirely by the manufacturers.
Which means that NO, your claim in your OP is NOT accurate. All guns could continue to be sold...and they'd all be smart guns.
Because
1. They do not work.
At one time air bags didn't work. At one time seat belts didn't work. At one time automatic parallel-parking didn't work.
2.Such a law would rob people of choice, if they are so much better why not let them stand up to competition.
Because safety measures are never popular enough until they are required by law. Statistics clearly showed that most people wouldn't wear seat belts until they were required to do so by law...but now the great majority do (in mandatory seat-belt states)...and those seat belts save a lot of lives.
3.Criminals do not obey the law
So by the same token, we shouldn't have speed limits for cars...because criminals don't obey the laws anyway, right? And we shouldn't have immigration laws...because criminals don't obey the laws anyway, right?
4. Still 600 million other firearms to use.
And every legally-owned firearm would be required to be retrofitted with the smart-gun tech. And a lot of too-curious kids will live longer as a direct result.
Well the reliability of the is just that pure fiction, and so is the idea of people paying 1,800 for a 22LR pistol that takes up to 2 seconds to be able to fire.
And the poor reliability of smart-tech is in your mind only. My iPhone 6 has fingerprint recognition...and it works every time in less than a second.
Then you should be eager for yet more research showing the same thing, huh? Let's do it!
Yeah because the goverment can be trusted never to reduce our Liberty and advance their control...Right?
You've never really lived outside America, have you? I recommend it - it's a real eye-opener, and you learn things that you can't learn from your computer screen or idiot box. One of the things you learn is just how corrupt our government is NOT, in comparison to other nations. You learn how strongly our rights are upheld by the government in comparison to other nations. Anyone who goes crying that America's a tyranny...has never lived in a tyranny or anything close to it.
Have fun reading the study, but you will not.
Actually, I generally do check out links to references - but not videos - they're not worth my time.
I checked the study itself...and in the findings of the study, again and again, in every single finding it says, "insufficient evidence to determine effectiveness" of whatever the study was looking at. Why is there insufficient evidence? Because there's so very few studies on the issue. Not only that, but if you'll read
the other side of the story when it comes to the study, you find out that the gun-rights people seized upon the highest estimates of self-defense usage...and ignored the lowest estimates and also ignored the fact that ALL of the figures presented concerning guns used in self-defense are in dispute.
This is what happens when one side insists on having a myopic view of an issue, and refuses to even allow proper and professional study of that issue...and completely ignores the success that ALL the other first-world democracies have had with gun control.
