Guncon2 on latest Groovymame?
Zebra:
I run a Windows CRT emu wingun set-up outputting RGBS to an arcade monitor. Sync for the gun is taken from the S line.
I don't think there is anything special about my set-up although I do use an Extron interface. I don't have issues with the Namco Guncon 2 on real light gun games. You can see in the video I posted how light gun games flash white in mame and how it works ok with the Namco guns for other people too.
I've only seen positional issues where the monitor brightness and contrast are set too low for light guns. This happens on the PS2 as well. I have seen more issues related to low light at the screen edge with 3rd party guns though. I found switching out the lens on 3rd party guns for the better quality Namco lenses helps a little (although nothing seems to help their accuracy).

Wingun itself flashes the screen, you can even see in the video you posted that for each shot it flashes twice, one from wingun and second from mame.
Logically, it doesn't make sense for the gun to work with the flash from mame since mame outputs the image after processing the input. It's not just about the flash but also its timing.

I have an scart like this:
It's working.

A friend has lent me a Namco Guncon2 so I can do some tests. So if I understood correctly there are 64-bit drivers some of you are already using?

These are the drivers: http://www.hkems.com/files/0807/TopGun_win7_64_beta.zip
It's important that the gun is 3rd party.
