In reply to JimB. It was clarified that the facial recognition technology is for feature extraction to match against your supplied photo ID. The moment that anyone suspected that the scans were being kept instead of being discarded the company's reputation would be destroyed and they would go bankrupt. The concept is excellent as, yes, you can run out of ammo at inconvenient times and theft of shelved stock is real.

I think myself to be a typical shooter and the only time I am out of ammo might be when I purchase a new caliber gun from an Individual otherwise, I will have and keep a supply that 20 to 50 more rounds would not be of a great value to me. The only way I could see it as a value is if there is a protracted gunfight outside the store that has the machine and I have expended my EDC mag capacity and my second mag. I live in a small town in Arkansas where the grocery store sells firearms, ammo, hunting licenses, fishing poles, bait and supplies along with Dewalt and Stanley tools plus I can get a pizza, great deli sandwich and all my medications. Pretty much the best store on the planet and they are open till 10:00pm nightly. Others might joke but I’m pretty sure that Jason Aldeen’s “Try That in a Small Town” song was written specifically about the town I proudly live in.

Scanning IDs and using facial recognition…because you know, building a gun registry is against federal law, but helping the feds build/upgrade a facial recognition database of ammo buyers is perfectly fine.

Plenty of local stores where I am sell groceries and happen to have ammo on the shelves too.
Maybe I should consider myself lucky that I don’t get why the concept is a thing.
Though the morning local news did report this like it was something. I’m guessing that means the people who produce and write the news at the big city station have never actually set foot outside that city save to visit another city.

This story has certainly been making the rounds (har har, see wut I just did thar) on multiple sites recently.

But I’ll never use one. Only a fool would pay with anything that deliberately crosses our anti-liberty Guv’s radar.

Does the need really exist? I would think the hunter etc would be prepared and not be so careless as to wait until the last minute to purchase ammo.
Not a bad idea, by any means. These machines may be of value on a shooting range or police academy.
