I unfortunately can't speak to anything in the UK, but I have some expertise on the matter in the US, and "gun" strikes me as remarkably imprecise and unprofessional. Certainly used casually, and also in the context of "He's got a gun!" or "Drop the gun!" but if two professionals were discussing the topic in a technical context, it sounds wrong to me.

But those Brits can be wacky, so I'm just kibitzing here.
