We show that weak-interaction gauge-theory renormalization corrections are negligible, and that explicit model dependences are small for the ratio GAMMA (..pi.. ..-->.. e..nu.. or e..nu gamma..)/GAMMA (..pi.. ..-->.. ..mu nu.. or ..mu nu gamma..). We use the postulate that this continues to hold for other pseudoscalar mesons to justify examining these radiative corrections for K/sup -/p ..-->.. K-bar/sup 0/n, K/sup -/p ..-->.. K-bar/sup 0/..delta../sup 0/, and
