A smart round of ammunition includes a casing, a primer disposed at a bottom portion of the casing, a projectile mounted at a top portion of the casing and a propellant disposed within an interior portion of the casing between the projectile and primer. The primer includes a piezo generator transducing a mechanical force received at a firing pin portion of the primer into a stored charge, a switch coupling and decoupling a spark gap between the stored charge and the propellant, and a wireless sensor activating the switch responsive to a digital signal received from a component external to the casing. The activation permits a discharge of the stored charge into the spark gap and therefore detonates the propellant.

The invention belongs to a weapon namely to the automatic weapons without ammunition. Particularly it belongs to the weapons using the energy of the explosion mixture gas, flammable liquid or other mixture in the combustion chamber as a mover of bullets. A weapon without ammunition, arranged according to the bullpup scheme, contains: the barrel; the receiver in the form of a cylinder rolling in a rectangular box; the trigger mechanism; the piston for supplying combustible mixture to the combustion chamber and for cooking the compressed air in the mixing tube. This piston is connected by a rod with the piston gas tube; the cylinder full of compressed gas, flammable liquid or other mixture; the drum with several chambers of internal combustion in the form of elongated cylinders. When moving to the trunk a drum is pushed by the nozzle of the lower chamber in the rear part of the bullet and toilet it in the trunk from the top of the camera. This occurs by the rotation around its own axis and longitudinal movement along this axis; the ignition mechanism consisting of a piezoelectric element and the spark; the secondary ignition system consists of a battery and a capacitor; the venting mechanism with the gas tube and piston, in which the gases are directed toward the muzzle; the return mechanism; the multi-function ammunition cartridge of extended capacity, feeding the bullets into the machine vertically. There is a function of the butt, and when you transfer the spare magazines on the body of the soldier there is a function of armor plates.

A circuit board that is added to a slide of an semiautomatic handgun for the purpose of counting fired rounds and providing a low ammunition round count signal, as well as a slide lock warning signal, indicating an out of ammunition condition. The circuit board is preferably saddle shaped with downwardly depending wings where warning lights can be located. The board is positioned between front and rear gun sights, below the aiming line of sight, with the saddle shape allowing placement of LEDs that can be seen behind the rear gun sight. In one embodiment, circuitry on the circuit board faces the slide so that the normal underside of the circuit board faces upwardly but below portions of gun sights that establish aiming.
