Would 'shock test gun' be suitable for this. Don't seem to be able to find the manufacturer's reference.

Sorry for taking so long to get back to you on this. Sent rom different computer.
Don't know who the manufacturer is.
Punctuation or lack of not of my doing.
Thank you Claude for ref.
chris collister Dec 16, 2012:
Coming immediately after "dielectric meter" you would expect these to be electrical shocks. However, this is followed by 3 items (sadly without punctuation) including a force sensor, so these COULD be mechanical impacts. If we knew who manufactured the PTL G22-50, that might give some valuable clues.

Selected

ESD test gun / Transient test gun / impact resistance test gun

It looks from your list of equipment as if this might be something to do with eletcrical test equipment, in which case I'd say it is likely to be an ESD and/or transient test gun.

However, if this were indeed mechanical, then it could be an 'impact resistance' test gun.

It would help a great deal to know what your overall context is, what sort of equipment is being tested, and if there is any mention at all of what type of testing may be involved?
