The targeting beam is still obviously what actually marks the target, it functions in the same way as having a laser sight on a real gun assists aiming, but yeah the actual means of firing are still ultimately elusive. The "mental control" theory is the only way to account for Greyback though so I guess it works well enough. It doesn't really matter in the end because... well... movies.

I know in the AVP games you (if playing as a predator) saw them doing something with the wrist computer when shooting but the movies definitely don't support this as the means of firing.
