Reasons against smart guns - smart appliances don't work well, never have, never will. I prefer things simple, mechanical and working instead of praying that some Dilbert style company developed an usable software.

I live in a country that has very restrictive gun ownership regime - and yet every person knows instinctively about the gun safety rules:

1. Always assume loaded, unless proven otherwise 2. Don't point it at something you don't want to kill.

I am sure that people will appreciate when their gun starts firmware update or resets during a boar charging at you situation.
