#4 Smart Pistol Hits California Shelves

Let's see:

Weapon $1,400
Activation Bracelet $400
Taxes, Background Check Fees, etc $100-$200

For almost $2,000 you can get into a 10 shot 22LR

The perfect weapon for a person who owns a Tesla and has his house covered with Solyndra solar panels.

#8 Yardarm, a California start-up, uses a smartphone app to notify gun owners if their weapon is moved and allows them to remotely disable their firearms.

Call me a paranoid gun-nut but something tells me the market for guns with GPS tracking devices that can be remotely disabled will be quite limited. Just sayin.
