So i finally bit the bullet and ordered a Sinden light gun.. i've been following the kickstarter since it's inception but now it seems they have their manufacturing on track..

I've got a lenovo usff m910q ready to go with this bootable image preconfigured for the Sinden.. i hope when it arrives it works as well as everyone says!

i do feel like i messed up by not ordering the recoil version but it seems you can order that seperately.

I own 2 sinden Light guns with recoil. They are excellent EXCEPT I cannot figure out how to get any game emulator to work with both guns at once. On a retropie anyways.

Tell me more about the preconfigured image for the shinden. I'm very interested in light gun games! Time crisis 2 in the arcade was my jam!

It's a 128gb image. I've written it to an SSD and just plug it in to my usff pc and boot off it.

I found out about it from this video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yxehAHC5WzM

Are there light guns for PC that work with modern displays?
