It's a molex connector but you can ignore that thing completely. Cut it off as soon as you get the gun. Switching power supplies normally have screw terminals so you just strip the wire and screw each wire to the appropriate voltage. Of course, you could try and find the male version of that connector, but they are usually expensive, and the guns will need to be permanently mounted anyway.
The wires should all be safely tucked inside your cabinet, so they won't be exposed. If you are talking about the gears under the gun those are typically coved with a metal box in the arcades, but a wooden or even plastic box could be fashioned quite easily.

Thanks for the details. I don't have space for a cabinet so I was thinking about just setting something up with one of these guns and the power supply. I'll have a thought about how I could protect both (the power supply and the gun gears) as I won't be able to purchase it atm, bad timing going on holidays shortly just when I saw this :)
Thanks again 🙏

Hey just wondering if you are willing to share the files you configured?
i have downloaded the biohazard set but would very much appreciate the files you made!!
Do you have an update on your build? guns still working ok?
im hoping to get my guns next week! had a shipping error last week but they have passed customs and on the way!
mrbee:
Alrighty!
I have managed to build the case and get the guns all set up.
Building is fine, I just hate the software side of this.
Already ran into a strange hurdle.. this one being that I launch the game using the aliens deshaped.ex.. I connect one gun to the pc
it says one gun detected and i can calibrate it and play. no problems.
if i connect two guns, the intro screen says 2 guns detected but when calibrating the left gun has no effect at all. only the right player works!
so i guess this has to be run through teknoparrot for 2 player.
maybe the exe has been messed with to make it compatible with a mouse, thus disabling the i.d of player 1s gun so that it passes the check but isnt enabled any further perhaps.
running it through teknoparrot using direct input seems to be all good, except the crosshairs wont go exactly to the edges of the screen, even after calibrating in both windows and in the game itself.
the crosshairs are also a bit glitchy/twitchy randomly in teknoparrot.
but at least player 1 (left) is working now
i have made a full audio mod for this game if anyone is interested changing almost all sfx and music and even all fmv files music and sfx to be more authentic to the movie
