Apparently Chiappa will be adding RFID chips to the firearms "in the next few months" according to a press release. Even though guns already have serial numbers to uniquely identify them, RFIDs open up a number of new capabilities, not all positive. RFIDs work fine for inventory control, but they don't turn off after purchase, allowing someone to be able to identify your firearm without your even being aware of it and even if you are carrying concealed.
I wander if other manufacturers are heading in this direction? Now where's my tin foil...
