Abstract
A perforating gun includes an orienting device retained in a carrier and a charge tube rotatably connected to the orienting device. The orienting device misaligns a center axis of the charge tube with a different second axis such that gravity can cause the charge tube to rotate about the different second axis. The charge tube does not rotate about the center axis of the charge tube while the charge tube rotates about the different second axis.
