What is a Smart Gun and is it good technology for current Gun Owners ?



                   

 

( Above are two types of Smart Guns )

 A Smart Gun only lets the owner of that Gun to pull the trigger. How exactly a weapon accomplishes that doesn't matter, so long as some form of authentication is required.  Simply stated it is a Gun that won’t work unless a unique chip, ring on your finger, sensor, or card is within close proximity (10 inches roughly ). Without it the firearm is useless and will not work for anyone.   This technology includes proximity sensors, biometric finger printing, magnets, radio-frequency identification (RFID) and microchips.  The technology varies depending on the company.  There are presently about 9 companies who have received financial backing to develop the Smart Gun or i-Gun as it is called in some circles.only the ownerThe term "smart gun" is trademarked by the company Mossberg, though it's generally understood to refer to any firearm that is designed to allow 

These companies are the following:

iGun Technology Corp, Safe Gun Technology, Kai Kloepfer, New Jersey Institute of Technology, Armatix, TriggerSmart, Metal Storm, Smart Tech Challenges Foundation, Magloc, Magna-Trigger,

 Should modern day Gun owners be afraid of this technology ?  Is this the beginning steps of Government controlled Firearms where “Big Brother” can shut down your firearm with the simple click of a button or is this technology we should embrace ?.  Public,  Government and Firearm Manufacturers all have differing views ….

What is the Hearing Protection Act of  2017




 
If you want a gun silencer, you need to follow the same steps people have been taking since 1934: Pay a $200 tax, fill out an application and get some patience. It currently takes about eight months to get approval.
The tax hasn't been raised since it was implemented as part of the National Firearms Act of 1934. According to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, the tax was "considered quite severe and adequate to carry out Congress' purpose to discourage or eliminate transactions" of silencers and firearms subject to the act. 
Some members of Congress want to do away with that process and make it easier for people to get silencers. 
Members in both houses have introduced bills called the Hearing Protection Act of 2017. 
Under the act, silencers — also known as suppressors — would no longer be subject to the checks laid out by the National Firearms Act. Instead, they would be subject to an National Instant Criminal Background Check.
While silencers don't actually silence shots, they do muffle them.

What are Gun Trusts 

By Mary Randolph, J.D.

Gun Trusts,”  are specifically designed to hold ownership of firearms. Usually, these trusts are used for firearms that are subject to strict federal and state regulations, but they may include other kinds of weapons as well. Gun trusts can make it easier to handle firearms after the owner’s death—and may prevent surviving family members from inadvertently violating the law.

Commonly, gun trusts are used for weapons that are regulated by two federal laws: the National Firearms Act of 1934 (NFA) and a revision of that law, Title II of the Gun Control Act of 1968.   These weapons are often called NFA or Title II firearms. NFA weapons include machine guns, silencers, short-barreled rifles, and short-barreled shotguns (including sawed-off shotguns), grenades, and others.

Other federal laws also affect NFA weapons. For example, since 1986 it has been illegal to manufacture machine guns, and only those manufactured before that date may be legally purchased. (Firearm Owners Protection Act.) State laws may further restrict NFA firearms as well.

Benefits of a Gun Trust

A gun trust can avoid some of the federal transfer requirements and accomplish other goals as well:
Allow more than one person to possess and use the weapons held in trust. If you name more than one person as trustee, each trustee will have the right to possess or use the trust firearms.  
Keep the gun in the trust even after the current owner’s death, avoiding the usual transfer requirements. If you create a trust and transfer firearms to it, you can arrange for the trust to stay in existence even after your death. The trustees and beneficiaries of the trust would have whatever rights you grant them in the terms of the trust. Because the firearm stays in the trust at your death, the transfer procedure is avoided. That means your inheritors don’t have to pay $200 transfer tax, file an ATF transfer form, receive permission from the local chief law enforcement officer (CLEO), and get fingerprinted and photographed.
Help the executor. The executor of your estate—the person who is responsible for gathering your assets, paying your debts, and distributing what’s left—may not be familiar with the rules about ownership and possession of NFA and other weapons. An executor could violate criminal laws by transferring a weapon without going through the proper procedure, taking or sending it to a state where it is prohibited, or giving it to a person who is legally prohibited from owning it. (The Gun Control Act makes it unlawful for certain persons to possess firearms. The law prohibits anyone who was ever convicted of a felony or of misdemeanor domestic violence, is prohibited by a restraining order from harassing an intimate partner, uses a controlled substance unlawfully, or is an illegal alien, to name just some of the restrictions.) When firearms are in a trust, the executor is not involved; the trustee is in charge. You can name a trustee who is well-versed in state and federal gun laws.
Avoid probate. Because the firearms are held by a trust, they do not need to go through probate at your death.
Avoid possible future restrictions on gun transfers. Although no such legislation has been proposed, some gun advocates fear that someday it will be illegal to leave certain firearms to inheritors or transfer them during life. They hope that holding the guns in trust will let them get around any limitations if they are enacted.

Making a Gun Trust

A gun trust is quite different from the common revocable living trust,  which is used, like a will, to leave your assets at death. A simple living trust allows survivors to transfer trust assets without going through probate court, which saves time and money after your death. It generally terminates shortly after your death, when the trust assets have been distributed to the people who inherit them. Many people make simple living trusts on their own, with the help of a good plain-English book or online service.
 
A gun trust, on the other hand, may have multiple trustees, be intended to last for more than one generation, and must take into account state and federal weapons laws. If you want to leave guns in trust, consult a lawyer who has lots of experience with the state and federal laws that govern who can legally use and possess weapons and how they must be transferred.
