Organic Jerk:
If it's of consistent quality and stability at the distance, that sounds great...

How often have you seen cheap in this hobby?
I don't care what the exact product is, I wanna be able to use guns with my cab.

To me value is much more important.... and Andy hasn't disappointed me yet.

Personally I use a 36in TV, 5 feet seems comfortable. My rig is hell to get guns to work on though (guncon even hates my CRT, rolling x, I believe to my TVs auto upscaling))

This is why when I build a cab it's going to JUST have a PS2 inside of it, controllers wired up to the panel but wire PlayStation game ports to the front area where a coin mech would normally be where you can simply plug in DualShocks, Guncons, or any other specialty PS2 controller.  (USB ports and composite video jacks for guncons as well on the front.

Just trying to figure out if you can 'seperate' the optical drive from the system and relocate itso as to have a drive tray on the front too.

Bam.  Connect gun.  Insert disk.  Save Astigos Island from Zagoria.  No fuss, no muss.

You have other options available to you on the PS2 rather then relocating the DVD drive. Mainly based on the HDDLoader systems. Just do some research, you can get your PS2 rigged up for pretty much free.
Its based on running off a hard drive rather then a optical drive.
Since it doesn't apply to this site too much I'd rather avoid talking about it on here but send me a PM if you are intrested and I'll give you my email address, and at least point you in the right direction

i had a 26" tv with a playstation 2 gun cabinet setup a while back and i stood about 3 to 4 feet back.  my current cabinet has a 19" LCD monitor, so no light guns for me. 

i am contemplating trying to set up a ps2 gun cabinet again though... although if there was a good gun option for cabinets with LCD monitors, i wouldn't have to do that
