A backstrap module configured to receive components and circuitry of a firearm capable of generating a firing signal from a firing apparatus for firing a non-impact ammunition cartridge along a firing axis includes a housing having an exterior surface which serves as a handgrip of the firearm, the operator's hand encircling the housing during a firing of the firearm. The backtrap module further comprises a circuitboard arrangement including a rigid circuitboard portion and a flexible circuitboard portion, the circuitboard arrangement being accommodated within the housing and configured to conform to the contours of the housing.

1. A backstrap module configured to receive components and circuitry of a firearm capable of generating a firing signal from a firing apparatus for firing a non-impact ammunition cartridge along a firing axis, said backstrap module comprising:a housing having an exterior surface which serves as a handgrip of said firearm, wherein an operator's hand would encircle said housing during a firing of said firearm; a circuitboard arrangement comprising a rigid circuitboard portion and a flexible circuitboard portion, said circuitboard arrangement being accommodated within said housing and configured to conform to the contours of said housing; a grounding terminal oriented to maintain abutment with a ground contact of a slide assembly of said firearm when said slide assembly is in a firing position; and said grounding terminal breaking abutment with said slide assembly when said slide assembly is moved in a rearward direction, thereby ensuring electrical discontinuity of said firing apparatus and prohibiting possible generation of said firing signal.
