Last week, we lambasted reports of a new “smart gun” that Reuters raved about in a glowing “exclusive.” Reuters reporter Daniel Trotta wrote that the third-generation prototype fired “without issue” during a live-fire demonstration for investors and the media.
Now though, additional footage of the event has since surfaced that shows the LodeStar Works gun couldn’t manage to fire two rounds without an issue during one of the exercises.
Whoops.
Maybe Daniel Trotta apparently misremembered what happened at the event when he wrote this in the original story:
A range officer fired the weapon, a third-generation prototype, in its different settings without issue.
