you might take a look at the first equation for tangent of the angle. Is it 8.1 or 81.1?
My stuff is not completely right either, as used a component of barrel length rather than sight radius.
Thanks for the nice presentation and pictorial; lot more than I did.

Opps! I did the calculation with 8.1 but mis-typed 81.1 on the figure. 81.1 inches would make a mighty long pistol barrel! The math as shown is correct with 8.1". I have corrected the image. Thanks for catching that!
