NBL Pistol Grip Tool for Under water Training of Astronauts

A document discusses a lightweight, functional mockup of the Pistol Grip Tool for use during underwater astronaut training. Previous training tools have caused shoulder injuries. This new version is more than 50 percent lighter [in water, weight is 2.4 lb (≈1.1 kg)], and can operate for a six-hour training session after 30 minutes of prep for submersion.
