Title: Arcade 1UP Terminator 2 guns on a Midway T2 arcade?
Post by: 3DPiper on November 08, 2023, 08:15:59 pm

Can you use Arcade 1UP Terminator 2 guns on a Midway T2 arcade?
I know the innards will not be the same, but is the size/shape of the Arcade 1UP close enough?
I was modeling my own to 3D Print, but if the Arcade 1UPs can be modified it may be easier to start with their shell.

Not a chance. The A1up ones are tiny.  They are not really the same either.  The arcade guns are really just a "joysticks" with a gun mounted on top of them and moving the gun repositions the underlying "joystick".  It's not even a light gun game.

Thanks for the info!
My main interest was if they were the same size..
If they aren't then no way, I'll just finish modeling the one I have and 3D Print a new one
