The 2P gun on my Lucky and Wild has about a 2-second delay if you move it quickly across the screen before the crosshairs appear. It registers in the test mode calibration just fine. I tried taking it apart last night but was having difficulty getting into the section that the gun is mounted to. If you open the control panel up, all you have there is a "mate n lock" connector that goes into the harness. I disconnected all of those connectors and cleaned them with alcohol and reconnected them, no change.
Any ideas or tips? Or do you just have to get another gun when these start to fail? They are NAMCO guns FYI.
Thanks!

I'd say the potentiometers in the gun are worn out, but I don't know why it wouldn't do the same thing in test mode.
Google a repair manual or parts lis to see how to get the guns apart.
Can you easily swap the connectors on the guns to see if the gun has the same problem if used for P1?

That's a good question actually. I'm guessing it's the gun but I will see if this swap can be done to confirm.
