The present disclosure provides systems and techniques for managing an energy store at a gun. The gun may include an energy store management system for securing an energy store, such as a battery pack, within a cavity of the gun. The energy store management system may include a dense brace located at a lower end of the cavity, a compressible brace located at an upper end of the cavity, a lid, a gasket at the upper end of the cavity, and a hinge mechanism configured to close the lid such that the lid forms a seal with the gasket. The interior surface of the cavity may be tapered such that the frictional load between the surface of the energy store and the surface of the cavity is higher at the lower end of the cavity than at the upper end of the cavity.

Systems for managing an energy store at a gun

The present disclosure provides systems and techniques for a fire control mechanism that is implementable in a gun. The fire control mechanism is operable to cause projectiles to be fired by the gun. The gun may include a trigger, a barrel defining a bore axis, a firing component, and an actuator configured to i) obstruct the firing component while in a default position and ii) be displaced in a direction that is substantially perpendicular to the bore axis in response to movement of the trigger, where displacement in the direction that is substantially perpendicular to the bore axis causes the firing component to be released and results in the gun firing a projectile. The gun may include an energy store located below the barrel when the gun is in an upright position, and the actuator may be displaced based on the energy store.
