Zusammenfassung:	A device for firing a small or medium caliber firearm includes a rangefinder, an infrared detector supplying an electrical signal, an electronic triggering assembly for controlling firing, and an electrical energy source. The triggering assembly is associated with percussion firing, using an electromagnet connected to the firing pin of the weapon. Firing of the firearm is activated by the detection of the heat signature of a target with the infrared detector.
