You know, I see an Unintended Consequence of the passing of any Smart Gun law even if the technology was flawless....and Liberals would cringe at this effect.

Since many folks will share a "utility" firearm, say .22 plinkers or 20GA rabbit guns and perhaps anything not use as an individual's daily carry gun, there would be an increased need for these firearms...and some part of that need would become increased demand.

This would mean increased sales/income for gun manufactures and an increase in the number of firearms possessed by citizens.

I can see a industry spokesperson making a statement something like this: 

"While the Firearms Industry opposes any Smart Gun legislation because the unreliability of the technology would create unreliable firearms and endanger those who's lives depend upon their firearm, the industry would financially benefit by the passage of such a law because it would require additional purchases of shared firearms and any accessories required for their use, maintenance and storage."

Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
—Patrick Henry

"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters."
— Daniel Webster
