It's the same basic muscle movements, lol. There's no reason to think Luke would be massively weaker than Vader, yet be able to match him and push him back when they clashed.

Not sure what "one shotting" would entail, but Luke at this point has developed his precognition to the point where he can direct focused blaster fire, so yeah, he's obviously not going to have trouble with Han Solo if he takes his gloves off. I think this becomes a lot more one-sided if we look through Luke's feats in the EU from around this time, when he is already capable of moving at blurring speeds and performing other crazy maneuvers.
And as you said, by Dark Empire he just crushes Han's face in with a finger.

Well obviously Luke as of ROTJ wouldn't have any trouble with Han either, but I was meaning one shotting as in like one hit with a fist would take Han out of the fight.
Which I don't think is likely given Han's durability.

Piloting is one of his great talents, but if you've read some Han material, he's a pretty great Hand to Hand fighter too.

In the films he isn't exceptional at all. He's a guy who can beat up some randoms sure but I wouldn't even give him odds against Kelvin Kirk.

Well of course obvious film wise he doesn't have any particular hand to hand showings, except for 1 that was mostly off screen.
EU wise though, Han is a fantastic H2H combatant.

This thread is old, but I wanted to bring up this one point. Anakin did use the force during their fight, not even just augmentation, he straight up force pushed him during the fight.

Yeah, later on. During the actual hand-to-hand exchange, Anakin wasn't using Force augmentation because if he was, Clovis would've been a dead pulp on the floor.
And why bump this thread for such a miniscule point, Jmangoham?

Luke crushes him with ease, total non-fight.

Shadows of the Empire (basically just after ANH) Luke defeated Guri who was stated to be superior to anyone in H2H combat sans force users. Tbf, he did get his ass kicked before calling upon the force, but Han has no chance against Luke. If not augmented, Han is larger, calloused, and presumably more experienced.
