The "Mark" nomenclature did not become standardized until the postwar period. Some wartime documents refer to "Mark I" and "Mark II" as different gun-type weapons, or "Mark II" and "Mark III" as referring to non-lens implosion concepts that were pursued until the spring of 1945 (with "Mark IV" being the lensed Fat Man design). Eventually the "Mark I" was used exclusively for Little Boy, and "Mark III" for Fat Man. See e.g., Hewlett & Anderson 1962, pp. 251–252, Hansen 1995a, p. 65, and discussion of nonlens program in Hoddeson et al. 1993, pp. 300, 312 Hewlett, Richard G.; Anderson, Oscar E. (1962).

The critical mass of any given nuclear system is not simply a matter of mass — it is a more complex function of the mass, its geometry, and properties like neutron reflection, among other things. As an illustrative example, the "bare sphere" critical mass of 70%-enriched uranium is 87.2 kilograms (192 lb), but with a 5 centimetres (2.0 in) beryllium neutron reflector, it drops to 36.5 kilograms (80 lb), and with a 10 centimetres (3.9 in) beryllium reflector, it drops to 23.7 kilograms (52 lb). Glaser, Alexander (2006). "On the Proliferation Potential of Uranium Fuel for Research Reactors at Various Enrichment Levels". Science and Global Security. 14: 1–24. doi:10.1080/08929880600620542. So while the 38.53 kilograms (84.9 lb), 80%-enriched, cylindrical "projectile" was an insufficient amount of enriched uranium to be a "bare sphere" critical mass, inside of a neutron-reflecting system it could potentially be dangerously close to criticality even prior to weapon assembly, or just prior to full assembly. After weapon assembly, the 64.2 kilograms (142 lb) 80%-enriched material, in a solid cylinder and encased in a neutron-reflecting tungsten tamper, would have composed more than one critical mass.

The "Mark" nomenclature did not become standardized until the postwar period. Some wartime documents refer to "Mark I" and "Mark II" as different gun-type weapons, or "Mark II" and "Mark III" as referring to non-lens implosion concepts that were pursued until the spring of 1945 (with "Mark IV" being the lensed Fat Man design). Eventually the "Mark I" was used exclusively for Little Boy, and "Mark III" for Fat Man. See e.g., Hewlett & Anderson 1962, pp. 251–252, Hansen 1995a, p. 65, and discussion of nonlens program in Hoddeson et al. 1993, pp. 300, 312 Hewlett, Richard G.; Anderson, Oscar E. (1962).
