I'd recommend you this instead if you want a better modding solution  ;)

most of it is explained in the pdf guide in the package, and for the namco gun some members of the discord server already modded it, they might be able to help you  ;D

You don't need too much soldering, maybe the trigger and buttons, but that's it, if you're planning on using recoil, that can be a little more complicated, but Aimtrack site has instructions. Anyway, as other user told you, you're WAY BETTER off trying GUN4IR since it has line of sight accuracy, Aimtrack does not, aimtrack is just another wiimote-like solution that can't do line of sight aiming.
