Title: Holster for Guncon
Post by: Paul Olson on March 03, 2010, 08:17:58 pm

I bought a couple of Guncons to house the aimtraks, and these guns are a lot bigger than I thought they would be. It is great for me since I have big hands, but the happ holsters I bought for the project are way too small. Does anyone know of a holster that will fit these guns?

Can you not make one?

I had the same problem with the LCD Topguns, no holster would fit.

So I used velcro.

Paul...

+1 on what ark said...you can make one...

Kman_Sweden did his cab and he used old CD cases to make his holsters...just an idea...

I plan to have a gun setup for my modular panel that is like area 51, so I am looking for holsters from an actual game that will fit these guns. I don't have any way to bend metal to make them right.

I have both guncon 2's and a pair of Area51 holsters as you linked.  Those holsters are WAY too small for the NAMCO branded guncon which is what Paul is asking about AFAIK.

The Guncon1 is largely modeled after Namco's arcade gun, so something Happ makes should fit the Namco arcade gun and thusly the Guncon 1.

I bought that model of Happ holsters, and they are way too small:

Edit: I just looked at the Happ link again, and they might fit in the middle one. I will have to keep an eye out on eBay; No way I am spending $60 for 2 holsters. If any one happens to have a pair of those, want to sell them? :)
