Weapon Talents in The Division are unlockable passive attributes on Weapons which are activated once you have a high enough value in one of the 3 Stats of Firearms, Stamina or Electronics. You can view the Weapon Talents of a particular weapon by viewing it in the overview screen. The rarer the weapon, the more talents. High End Weapons can feature up to 3 talents (exception: Tenebrae can hold 4).
Paying attention to the Talents available will help you decide which Gear to equip to boost your Stats. To maximize your Weapon Talents, you will have to pay attention to all 3 of the primary stats when deciding what gear to equip. This is a list of the different Weapon Talents you will encounter in the game.

Trained: Critical Hits increase signature skill resources by 0.10% (Value @ item lv 182) Looks like muscular arm.

Marksman rifles can get coolheaded talent. I crafted a high end mk17 and it has it as the built in talent that doesn't require you to get the "stats" to use it. That's my personal experience that I can confirm with pictures if need be. However I have also heard high end pistols can get the same talent though I haven't seen that myself yet.
