Thrown (Sling) includes bolas
Thrown (Small) catch all for knives, ninja stars, darts, rocks, etc.

I'd pretty much just use Throwing (DX/A) and allow specialization by type (which IIRC, converts it to DX/E).
Seems reasonable.

Guns (Long Arm) This would include 2 handed crossbows and liquid projectors.
Guns (Pistol) 1 handed crossbows too.
Guns (LAW)

I'd make them:
Guns (pistol caliber SMG, pistols, handbow, flare gun)
Guns (long arm)
Guns (heavy: bipods, tripods, vehicle mounted firearms, unguided rockets)
Guns (unguided artillery such as cannons, mortars, catapults, scorpio)
... with fairly generous defaults/techniques between other Gun specialties.
For a total of 7.
