Title: Ultimark Aimtrak light gun holsters
Post by: skorp2k14 on January 06, 2015, 10:01:48 pm
Hey everyone, I am building a bartop arcade and was wondering what were you guys using for your Aimtrak light guns as a holster? I have been looking at the HAPP replacement holsters but am not sure if the gun will fit, any suggestions would be appreciated thanks!

I don't think they fit in the Happ holsters.

There was a similar topic some time ago. Look at my reply (#6) here: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,139571.msg1443548.html#msg1443548 (http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,139571.msg1443548.html#msg1443548).  ;)
I think the could look and work very nice in a cabinet.

Is there such a thing as Velcro gun holsters, that can hold together on a seat via velcro, and I would put velcro on the seat so they join together?

I search eBay in UK but I get a lot of leg gun hosters, that's about it.

something like this as said before would be nice

http://www.benchmasterusa.com/Single-Pistol-WeaponRAC-Velcro-Hook (http://www.benchmasterusa.com/Single-Pistol-WeaponRAC-Velcro-Hook)

but trying to find one in UK, and what to search for is quite hard.


hmmm, spose you could just buy any gun holster then add velcro to is yourself huh?

Where do you plan to mount the sensor bar?

We have some holsters in stock. I will add them to the store when the dust has settled a bit from clearing the holiday order backlog.

Not to completely hijack this thread (I just built holsters into the side of my cab), but does anyone know of any cord retractors that I could use with USB cables?  Everything I've found has been really small (like for ID badges) or has rope or something provided (and I've never ad any luck reassembling something that includes springs)

I plan to incorporate it into the benzel above the monitor and just below the speaker/ marquee board. notice i said I "plan" lol if that doesnt work then I will de-case it and try to work it in that way.

He is what I did, they are automated to rise up when a gun game is chosen. http://youtu.be/4JIzzg03Qyw (http://youtu.be/4JIzzg03Qyw)

I've done some extensive research on this. Some off the best ones I can find are cable retractor devices for desks and boardroom tables. They can be expensive, but if you want a clean look it might be the best bet.  I didn't pull the trigger (pun intended) because I decided I wanted to wait until the day Andy sold a version that had recoil power and usb in the same cable. Well, that and I moved on to other projects. :)

That's an interesting idea about the automated gun set up - care to share the plans on the mechanics and electronics on it?
