Abstract
Systems, methods, and apparatus including an autonomous ballistic arming mechanism that may be used in well systems. A first well tool may include an initiating device, and a ballistic barrier housing the initiating device. The ballistic barrier may be configured to mechanically move when the first well tool is engaged with a second well tool to position the initiating device for ballistically arming the first well tool. The first well tool may be a first perforating gun system, the second well tool may be a second perforating gun system, and the initiating device may be a detonator. The ballistic barrier may mechanically move to align the initiating device with a detonating cord of the second well tool for ballistically arming the first well tool.
