"Even more chillingly for those who see personal weapons as a guarantee of freedom from government oppression, FN speak of the Black Box as a "weapon manager", hinting that feds, military superiors etc. might even be able to disable a gun remotely."
Now they would know where you shot, what you shot, where it is, and where it has been. Anyone know where to get lead lined PVC pipe?
This is scary. If you gave that to troops they would run a high risk of being captured or destroyed by enemy forces if it sets off any kind of remote signal. Even if it has an electric pulse of any kind I would think there is a sensor that looks for it. And if they put that in a civilian market rifle couldn't you just remove it?
