It's Steel Gunner 1 with the 22's gun (with the round thing on the back). By the way, they work great in terms of range, I was able to reach across all screen without issues with both guns, I tested all 4 corners, all worked out. Maybe this are better than the Taito ones?
I guess the solenoids still work, there's a cylinder at the tip of the gun that goes in and out when I fire which is lose. If I hold it slightly, it will keep working but if I let it go it stops. Like I said, I was told there's a metal piece that holds that part of the gun which is either gone or worn out and I should be able to fix it. I'm not sure how much of that is true, but seems that way to me and I'm hopeful it can be repaired, what do you think?
As for the Generation X cab, that guy is not selling it, he's just willing to let it go for the price he's asking, so he has no incentive at all to lower the price (already asked, offered to pay in cash right there, he didn't even flinch, price is set on stone). I've seen this cabs being sold for up to 2k around here, so his price is actually not that bad, but not a bargain either.
At this point I think I will pass on the Gunblade (unless the guy accepts something like 100$ delivered, the cab is in really great shape). Room is not the issue but the time I have to work on this machines is, and I hate having non-working cabs for months or even years sitting around.
