That is why we have had training in the use of household and other items for defense and well as just hands and feet. Never rely on just one type of defense because you never know what, when or where an attack will take place. You can only train and be prepared for it. It doesn't matter you age except you are old enough to understand how to use the training.
I think one of the greatest advancements in guns is the composite materials which now making them lighter and more capable of handling an integrated circuitry system. But for home defense nothing beats a shotgun or even a 223 cal rifle.
This has been in their bills that no one takes time to read before passing them.
Smart gun technology: Markey’s office quickly pointed out that another piece of legislation he and Maloney introduced that went nowhere in Congress, a bill that within five years would require all new handguns to be equipped with technology that allows only authorized users to operate it, actually made some headway in Obama’s executive actions. Obama has directed the federal government to research ways to implement smart gun technology which included GPS tracking
A bill introduced in 2011 in Massachusetts, to study the feasibility of installing GPS on firearms is likely to be re-introduced this session, according to the sponsor's staff. Legislation has also been introduced in Chicago.
While GPS works anywhere there is a line of sight with four or more transmitting satellites, there are locations such as the interior of large buildings where GPS signals cannot be received. This could interfere with the tracking of a GPS-equipped firearm. While other technologies could be used to determine the firearm's location, there may be locations where they also do not work.
While the GPS equipment that is currently being marketed cannot be readily removed from the firearm, a person could thwart it by failing to recharge the battery.
