Abstract: A firearm control system for a firearm authorized for use by a person having a validated identity comprises a firearm having a frame, barrel, firing mechanism and trigger. An interlock system is provided for enabling and disabling operation of the firearm, the interlock system being disposed on the frame and including a communications/control module, a trigger module operatively connected to the communication/control module, and operatively connected to the trigger to sense attempted operation of the trigger by a user and send signals to the communications/control module, and a firing mechanism module operatively connected to the communication/control module, and to the firing mechanism to enable or disable operation of the firing mechanism. The interlock system operates to enable and disable operation of the firearm based on signals sent to, and received from, the communications/control module.
