Summary:
A report on various different versions of a 'smart gun,' a computerized handgun which only its owner can fire, focusing on the reasons why the weapon has not been put into production. Proponents claim that the development and marketing of a 'smart gun' could save lives, while members of the gun control movement say that a total ban is the only way to stop violent assaults with handguns.
