1. A method executed by a firearm system, comprising: determining, with electronics in a handgun, events that include tracking a continuous path between different points of aim of the handgun as the handgun moves between the different points of aim while at a location, determining a compass direction of the different points of aim, and determining a duration of time that the handgun is pointed at the compass direction;wirelessly transmitting, from the handgun and to a remote computer, event data that includes the continuous path between the different points of aim of the handgun as the handgun moves between the different points of aim while at the location, the compass direction of the different points of aim, and the duration of time that the handgun is pointed at the compass direction;reconstructing, at the remote computer and from the event data, the events that include the continuous path between the different points of aim of the handgun as the handgun moves between the different points of aim while at the location, the compass direction of the different points of aim, and the duration of time that the handgun is pointed at the compass direction; anddisplaying, at the remote computer, a reconstruction of the events that includes showing an image of the location, an image of the handgun, the continuous path between the different points of aim of the handgun on the image of the location, the compass direction of the different points of aim, and the duration of time that the handgun is pointed at the compass direction. 2. The method of claim 1, further comprising: displaying, at the remote computer, the continuous path as one or more lines on a display of the remote computer such that the lines copy movement of the handgun as the handgun moved between the different points of aim. 3. The method of claim 1, further comprising: displaying, at the remote computer and on the image of the location and on the continuous path between the different points of aim of the handgun, locations where the handgun fired while the handgun was at the location. 4. The method of claim 1, further comprising: displaying, at the remote computer and on the image of the location and on the continuous path between the different points of aim of the handgun, locations where the handgun was aimed when a user of the handgun placed a finger on the trigger of the handgun while the handgun was at the location. 5. The method of claim 1, further comprising: displaying, at the remote computer and on the image of the location and on the continuous path between the different points of aim of the handgun, a time of day when the handgun was pointed at the different points of aim. 6. The method of claim 1, further comprising: activating the electronics in the handgun to track the continuous path between the different points of aim of the handgun when a user grips the handgun; anddeactivating the electronics in the handgun to track the continuous path between the different points of aim of the handgun when the user releases the handgun. 7. The method of claim 1, further comprising: building, at the remote computer and from the event data, a three-dimensional model that shows different locations where a user holding the handgun was located while at the location and that shows both an angle of elevation and a direction of where the handgun was pointed at each of the different locations where the user holding the handgun was located. 8. A firearm system, comprising: a handgun with a body that houses electronics that track a continuous pathway between different points of aim of the handgun as the handgun moves between the different points of aim at a location; anda computer that receives data from the handgun and includes an event tracker that builds an image of the pathway between the different points of aim of the handgun and displays the image of the pathway over an image of the location, wherein the electronics in the handgun include a compass that determines a direction of a point of aim of the handgun, and a clock that determines a duration of time that the handgun is pointed at each compass direction. 9. The firearm system of claim 8, wherein the electronics in the handgun include a gyroscope and an accelerometer that determine an angle of inclination for the direction of the point of aim of the handgun. 10. The firearm system of claim 8, wherein the electronics include sensors that record an event each time the point of aim of the handgun moves along an X-axis while the handgun is being held by a user, each time the point of aim of the handgun moves along a Y-axis while the handgun is being held by the user, and each time the point of aim of the handgun moves along a Z-axis while the handgun is being held by the user. 11. The firearm system of claim 8, wherein the electronics further include: a sensor that determines a height of the handgun from ground; anda transmitter in the handgun that transmits the height and the compass direction to the computer. 12. The firearm system of claim 8, wherein the event tracker builds and displays the image that includes both the different points of aim of the handgun and a point of impact of a bullet fired from the handgun. 13. The firearm system of claim 8, wherein the computer further includes a predictor that predicts, based on a previous points of aim, a predicted path of where a user of the handgun will point the handgun at a future time, and a display of the computer displays the predicted path of where the user of handgun will point the handgun at the future time. 14. The firearm system of claim 8, wherein the electronics in the handgun include a three-axis gyroscope, a three-axis accelerometer, and an electronic compass that computes direction based on a Hall effect. 15. A method executed by a firearm system, comprising: determining, with electronics in a handgun, event data that includes different points of impact of a bullet if the bullet were fired from the handgun as the handgun moves in a hand of a user while at a location, height of the handgun from ground, and a compass direction of a point of aim of the handgun;wirelessly transmitting, from the handgun and to a remote computer, the event data;building, at the remote computer and based on the event data, an image of the location that includes a continuous pathway that extends between the different points of impact of the bullet if the bullet were fired from the handgun as the handgun moves in the hand of the user while at the location, the height of the handgun from ground, and the compass direction of the point of aim of the handgun; anddisplaying, at the remote computer, the image of the location that includes the continuous pathway that extends between the different points of impact of the bullet if the bullet were fired from the handgun as the handgun moves while at the location, the height of the handgun from ground, and the compass direction of the point of aim of the handgun. 16. The method of claim 15, further comprising: building, at the remote computer and based on the event data, the image of the location to include an impact location on an object that shows where the bullet fired from the handgun struck the object; anddisplaying, at the remote computer, the image of the location that includes the impact location on the object that shows where the bullet fired from the handgun struck the object. 17. The method of claim 15, further comprising: displaying, at the remote computer, the continuous pathway to include a location where the handgun was pointed when the user of the handgun placed a finger on a trigger of the handgun and a location where the handgun was pointed when the user of the handgun removed the finger from the trigger of the handgun. 18. The method of claim 15, further comprising: calculating, at the remote computer and based on the event data, a trajectory path of the bullet if the bullet were fired from the handgun while the handgun is directed at a point of aim; andre-calculating, at the remote computer and each time the handgun moves to a different point of aim, another trajectory path of the bullet if the bullet were fired from the handgun while the handgun is directed at the different point of aim. 19. The method of claim 15, further comprising: predicting, at the remote computer and based on the event data, a path that shows where the user of the handgun will point the handgun at a future time; anddisplaying, at the remote computer, the path that shows where the user of the handgun will point the handgun at the future time. 20. The method of claim 15, further comprising: displaying, at the remote computer, images in space of a path where the user moved the handgun in the space.
