The Greener hammer gun and the NID were thrown in to show what "a bit more manly" guns were like. Weight is in pounds and decimals (not ounces), balance is inches in front of the (front) trigger, MOI@CG is the unmounted swing effort, MOI@Butt is the mounted swing effort, gage is the usual numbers, barrel length is in inches, LOP is length of pull and is in inches, and HWR, half weight radius, is a measure of the gun's compactness (smaller numbers are more compact).
Hugh L. could do a good job of sensing the swing and placing the guns in rank order.
Questions?
