prevent an accident." I believe its common sense to not leave a loaded or unloaded weapon lying

around. Gun control is another big issue in America; there are pros and cons of this, both sides

have very strong points, so the big question is does gun technology actually help with the control

issue.

New technology in firearms has advanced a lot since the firearm was invented. From

internal chambers, spiral barrels, to the advances that have happened in the past few years such

as fingerprint identification, and computerized memorization grip. Statistics show that the new

there to help prevent deadly accidents. Only the firearm user is the only one who can actually

prevent these accidents

Gun control in America is a big important issue, statistics shows that people who own a
