Ken, The gun model is derived from extensive research by Mike King and others (David Pommerenke) to derive a pulse that reflects an ESD event from a human with an intervening metal object.
I have copied Mike for his input. Dr Pommerenke is on the EMC blog.

It seems it ought to be a human body model, but it isn't.
