The Safe Shoot device was showcased at last month’s SHOT Show in Las Vegas as a simple way to prevent hunting accidents, but the Israeli company — operating out of Los Angeles — has hopes to expand usage among law enforcement.
“We hope to someday get involved in Homeland Security, police, SWAT teams that sort of thing,” said Rick Rogers, a Safe Shoot representative at the company’s booth during the trade show.
The concept has been in the works since around 2013 with the intention “to eliminate friendly fire accidents when people are out in the field with firearms,” Rogers said, but added that the company wanted it to first introduce it to the North American hunting market.
Rogers explained the simplicity of the Safe Shoot system. A sensor attaches to a weapon and blinks green or red depending on the target. If the target is wearing a reciprocating device, it signals to the marksman when it’s unsafe to pull the trigger.
