A start-up gun company unveiled a highly accurate "smart rifle" at the Consumer Electronic Show this week.
TrackingPoint presented at the show its new 500 Series AR Smart Rifle, which is just one of the company's line of "Precision Guided Fire Arms."
CNBC reports:
This technology turns even a neophyte into a marksman, at least within a 500-yard range. The user simply "tags" the target, and the gun and ammo do the rest, all for a mere $9,950—the starting price for the new series.
In fact, the system is so accurate that a user will have up to five times the accuracy of an experienced shooter, said Oren Schauble, the company's marketing director.
The gun can track a target moving at up to 10 mph and allows for rapid engagement, meaning a person can shoot multiple targets quickly.
According to TrackingPoint, the company's unique rifles are meant to "dramatically enhance the hunting and shooting sports experience while delivering a powerful tactical advantage to military and law enforcement organizations."
