The gun was launched on April 13th and less than a month later, only 2% of preorders were left. The latest edition of the gun will officially be on the market in 2024, and the &#8220;Founders Edition&#8221; has already sold out and will ship later this year.<\/p>\n<h3>Revolutionary Technology<\/h3>\n<p>The smart gun allows owners to add authorized users via its Smart Dock, but it was designed to lock &#8220;the moment it leaves your hand&#8221; to prevent misuse. The technology can recognize its user even if they are wearing a mask or gloves, or have dirty fingers. The gun is currently only available as a 9mm Luger with 10 or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/colorado-companys-smart-gun-nearly-sold-out-in-preorders\/\" title=\"CO company's 'smart gun' almost sold out in preorders.\">15 round double-stack magazines<\/a>. Its material is mostly made of stainless steel, which puts the gun&#8217;s weight at just under two and a half pounds.<\/p>\n<h3>Background and Inspiration<\/h3>\n<p>Biofire Technologies founder and CEO Kai Kloepfer began experimenting with the technology 11 years ago in response to the Aurora Theater shooting, where three people were wounded and 12 were killed.
