Title: Just saw this on ebay. Would this gun actually work? and how well?

Also does any one have a guide on how to do this if it actually works.

Ya, that will work. It will essentially be the same as hooking up T2 guns. 1up figured that one out hacking a Microsoft Sidewinder Controller. You can probably also use an Apac or something similar. Getting the rumble to work will be the really difficult part, though. 1up also figured that out, but he used actual T2 guns, so I imagine it is different. I know I have seen someone that made a circuit for one of those guns that did just that, but I can't find it on here. Keep searching the boards, it is here somewhere.

So it is. I didn't even notice that somehow. Anyhow, it will still be a trick to get the force feedback to work.
