i can get my hands on some old Big Buck Hunter light guns and i was wondering if it was possible to hook them up to my pc and use it through MAME.
Any advice WILL be helpfull,

Short answer, No.

Future looking answer: maybe but not yet, or (same product) yes but $$$ and not tested here.

$199 seems expensive at first... BUT if it supports TWO guns and also has a stereo amplifier and 24 switch inputs then that adds to the value of it..  From what I remember the arcade light guns are little more than a photocell and a switch.. so you could probably hack a molex connector on a console lightgun to work with this interface.  I think it'd be work $200 to have a solution that finally JUST worked! 

BTW, what did you mean by (same product) ?  Those two products aren't the same at all.. maybe I misunderstood you..

They look the same to me ... both are optical gun boards produced by Nanotech.

FWIW, I am thinking that, once I clean up some of my projects, that I will break my self-imposed ban on buying stuff related to davidrfoley -- this looks to be to good to pass up and would turn my JAMMA gun cab into a nice multi-gun cab.

oops.. that was before I read the entire thread.. I only got as far as the ULGI being mentioned.
