shmokes:
I've I've got a couple of TV ones that have never been used (hooked one up to test it) for the same reason. It's taken me over a year to get my cab done, I'm so damn busy all the time (and I'm secretly building it at work since I don't have work space at my apartment so I can only work on it durring the weekend). This almost makes me wonder how much I really want light-gun support. If these things top $250 apiece I'm selling them. Of course, mine are the TV ones and apparently the demand isn't quite as high for them yet.

portwojc:
I know >:( I was one of those bidding on the thing and gave up around the $85 mark. I couldn't believe it went for that much money. It's the highest one I've seen so far and I've been watching and trying to get one for a couples months now.

I just wish I was smarter in the past and bought one when Act Labs had them in stock. Or even when they had the refurbs.

Why Atc Labs doesn't wake up and make more is beyond me. If they're worried they could just take pre-orders until they had enough for a run of them. I know I'd sign up for a couple.

Wouldn't it be funny if "ActLabs" is the seller of these guns via Ebay ......... that would explain why they are not in a hurry to start production again....they would take a hugh profit loss ... hehe

A company called http://www.erealgames.com/ make a lightgun based on a camera mounted on top of your camera. This has potentially HUGE advantages over all the above guns, as they do not mess with the video of the system at all - no white-blanking of the screen on every shot.
It is not avaiable for the PC although a guy from the company posted on these boards saying they were looking into making a PC version.

Minwah emailed these folks and got this reply:
'Thanks for your interest in our RGT G1 light gun.

We are developing a PC version. Hopefully, we will have a PC version in May
at E3.'

So if we're lucky we'll see a release this year. There's quite a bit of discussion about this option here:

I've just wrapped mine in cotton wool and won't be using it again!! If the prices for them are this high in the US what will they be like in the UK?
Ridiculous situation isn't it when you can pick up a Playstation lightgun for about
