A method for initiating a responsive action based on an operational status event of a firearm is provided. The method can include receiving, by an event detection module, acceleration and rotation input signals from an inertial measurement unit configured on the firearm. An occurrence of an operational status event based on the acceleration and rotation input signals are identified by the event detection module. A tipping signal is generated by the event detection module based on the identified operational status event. The tipping signal is received at a responsive infrastructure. The responsive infrastructure performs a responsive action based on the tipping signal.
