ID Sniper Rifle Fires GPS Tracking Chip Into Unwitting Humans

Paul Miller writes over on Engadget:
It sounds too good to be true, and our source link thinks that very well might be the case, but screw physics: we want one of these. The ID Sniper Rifle from Empire North of Denmark apparently fires a GPS-microchip into an unsuspecting human target "without causing any internal damage."More here.
Supposedly the target won't even know they've been tagged, since the shot stings about as much as a mosquito bite. It's unclear how a GPS transmitting module can be large enough to be tracked from a distance from inside a human body while failing to even hurt enough to notice, but we want to believe. In addition to firing such a gentle projectile, the rifle also zooms in on and captures a picture of the fired-upon target.
Empire North is currently courting law enforcement agencies with the gun.
