Smallest guns for spaceships

Post by rattlesnake »

Post the smallest gun for various spaceships such as glider, lightweight spaceship, loafer, etc.
Smallness is by bounding box.
If bounding box is equal the smallness is by population.
Glider: Gosper glider gun
LWSS: p24 LWSS gun
MWSS: P46 gliderless MWSS gun
HWSS: p45 gliderless HWSS gun
See "Game of Life discovery".
I have discovered SKOP for 105, 115, 188, 476, 492 and gun_ and guntrue_ for 226, 339, 752.
