Yes, but at $100 a pop, yikes!

I also hear that the new "pistol" style is even smaller than the old ones.  More those of us with "normal" to "large" sized hands, it may not be comfortable.

meh... these guns are obsolete.   Guncon2 is here to stay and is constantly improving.

I ordered an Act Labs gun about 3 months ago, got an email today from them telling me that it is finally being shipped and should arrive in a week, hopefully.  You have to get specific guns depending on your usage.  a VGA gun will not work on an LCD monitor.  I asked if they had plans to make them for Hi Definition TVs. The response was that they are looking into it.
