Due to a delay in the ordering of parts, it was decided that more research into the laser used for the firing device was needed. The laser that was going to be ordered needed a driver circuit built for it so instead of having to create this, it was decided that another laser would be ordered instead.
The laser that is now being ordered is the Laser Module - Red with TTL Control from proto-pic.co.uk. It is a basic laser card module with circuitry built in so that it can be turned on/off with a TTL signal, making it much easier to use with an Arduino.

Below is the schematic for the laser.
