I feel like I just fell into "The Cavern of Incredible Coincidences" !

Anyway, I think it's a great book. Heck, I have a SPAS 12, and I didn't
know what the hook was for until I read the book! It has great
descriptions of various firearms, but perhaps ironically, I think the
gaming side of it is a bit thin. It mainly works for systems that have
little or no firearms capability in themselves, and it mainly
concentrates on group size at various distances. I play GURPS and I
missed such things as how bad is the recoil, how fast the gun is to
bring into action etc. Hmmm... I think this is getting a bit out of the
charter, so I'll let it be.

Good book anyway, with lots of technical and trivia info.
