The TrackingPoint AR Smart Rifle is powerful and deadly—even in the “wrong” hands. Geared toward sport hunters, this Precision Guided Firearm is a closed-loop system, not just a high-tech scope. The system includes a custom rifle manufactured by Surgeon, a Networked Tracking Scope by TrackingPoint, and a guided trigger, all of which work in tandem to ensure a more accurate shot from as much as 500 yards away.
