cool tech, but 17,000? holy

Las Vegas (CBS LAS VEGAS) – A new Wi-Fi enabled “smart gun” uses a computerized scope to compensate for human error and ensure that the rifle and an amateur marksman can pick off any target up to 3,600 feet away.

Featuring a precision guided laser and an electronic rifle sight that can display targets on an iPad, the new “TrackingPoint” rifle promises to “turn every shooter into a sniper.”

According to their website, TrackingPoint says they build “Precision Guided Firearms,” or “PGFs.”

The PGF from TrackingPoint is a heavily modified hunting rifle that features “a modified trigger mechanism with variable weighting, the computerized digital tracking scope, and hand-loaded match grade rounds,” Ars Technica reports.
