A human transported weapon is comprised of a barrel, computational logic, selection logic, targeting location logic, positioning logic, and, trigger activation logic. The barrel fires munitions therefrom. The computational logic, identifies targets within range of an area of sighting of the human transported weapon as available target. The selection logic determines a selected target from the available targets, responsive to computational logic. The targeting location logic determines a target location of the selected target at a firing time. The positioning logic, positions the aim of the human transported weapon, responsive to computational logic, so that the munitions will strike the selected target when fired at the firing time. The trigger activation logic provides a trigger signal to activate firing of the munitions at the firing time. In one embodiment, the trigger signal is responsive to a user input. In one embodiment, there are a plurality of types of said targets, such as comprised of human, non-human, animal, friend, and foe. The selection logic identifies one said type of target as a selected type, and, one of the available targets of the selected type is chosen to be the selected target.
