Ok. But what I want to see is this gun how accurate in Joystick Mode? Very much game allow to play P1 mouse and P2 game pad. In that case, ACTLabs troubleshooter doesn't need if the gun usable via joystick/game pad.

So here is the deal with mouse and joystick mode. Both have the same accuracy and both function in absolute mode which is the only way an absolute pointing device can function. Many joystick games function in relative mode, meaning if you had a joystick with the pointer starting at the center of the screen, then pushed left and then released it would not return to the center again. Only games that return to the center of the screen will work correctly in absolute joystick mode. Mame supports this, but many PC gun games do not.  PC gun games still work best in mouse mode. I hope my explanation makes sense.
Donkbaca:
makes sense to me.  Its the same reason 2 lightguns don't work in Model 2
GreatLamer:
Thanks for the explanation. I didn't know that. So this joy option isn't a big deal as seen.

OK, I finally did it.  I bought two aimtraks.  And also the Yobo guns based on the positive notes on this thread about force feedback.  Thanks Donkbaca.  Hopefully they'll come out good.  I also bought "vinyl dye" to paint them black with blue and red buttons.  Vinyl die is supposed to chemically bond with the plastic so it won't flake off with use.  We'll see...
