A wireless firearm system is disclosed. The wireless firearm system includes a device computer processor operable to execute a set of computer-readable instructions. Attached to the device computer process is a device memory operable to store the set of computer-readable instructions. The device memory is operable to receive a first set of firearm values from a first firearm transmitter, receive a firing sequence command, and determine a second set of firearm values based at least in part on the firing sequence command. The device memory can determine the first set of firearm values is less than the second set of firearm values and communicate the firing sequence command to a firearm memory.

An electronic firing rifle assembly includes a salvo rifle operable through electrical means to efficiently discharge a salvo of projectiles. The assembly includes a firearm receiver body that provides housing for internal action components. The firearm receiver body has an inner surface defined by cam slots. The assembly also includes a barrel subassembly having a barrel and a plurality of barrel guide cams extending radially within the cam slots formed in the firearm receiver body. The assembly also includes a reciprocating bolt defined by has an ammunition placement zone for retaining ammunition, such as a tround. A leaf spring ejects the ammunition after discharge of projectiles. The bolt is defined by a cam track that allows the bolt to rotatably and longitudinally reciprocate along a bolt translation path in a helical path. Data pertaining to the location and direction of projectile discharge is transmitted for identifying discharge locations and tracking.

An optical firearm trigger is disclosed, revealing means and methods of initiating discharge of a firearm without the use of a mechanical trigger. In this manner the grip of the firearm will not change due to the mechanical loading required to pull the trigger further alleviating the hold, or squeeze, on the firearm during discharge. It further relates to firearm safety as it provides methods and means to prevent reflexive, unintentional trigger pull by the shooter. No personalization or additional security is incorporated in the firearm by this disclosure.

A separate-loading firearm uses a battery-powered electric resistance heating element to ignite a propellant charge. Both ignition reliability and ballistic reproducibility are enhanced when a first portion of the propellant charge is consistently and firmly packed into a cavity formed in a rear surface of a bullet. This first portion may be sealed in the cavity by a membrane. A second portion of the propellant charge is packed within a firing chamber so that it abuts both the heating element and the first portion of the propellant charge.

A separate-loading firearm, which may be configured as a muzzle-loading pepperbox pistol, uses a battery-powered electric resistance heating element to ignite a propellant. A relatively long current pulse, which may be of controllable duration, is used to ignite the propellant and a much shorter pulse may be used to test the integrity of the heater. Detection of the firearm's recoil may be used to terminate the relatively long firing pulse, which can increase the service life of the heating element and reduce the current drain from the battery.
