Having problems with message search?
CRT-based light guns (for TVs or computer monitors) do not project any light. So you won't see any light coming from the gun. See (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightgun) for a good explanation of how light guns work. Most (if not all) light guns on the market use the second method described on that page.
As for why your gun isn't working, I have no idea. Have you tried it out on a regular computer monitor? If you ever get it working, please let us know what your solution was.

Hey guys,
Psyched to see there's a light gun forum alive for Mamers. Getting
info is like pulling teeth these days.
So - purchased a Lik Sang Virtual Gun off of Ebay - can't get it to
work with my mame cab. I'm running off of an arcade monitor via
Andy's Arcade VGA and Jpac. Tried all res and brightness -
nothing.
Beginning to wonder if the gun itself is broken. Should I actually
be seeing a "light flash" from the barrel of the gun when I pull the
trigger? Or a red glow, something? I get zip. Maybe the gun is
broken. Or maybe its not compat. Figured I'd make my first post
here as moronic sounding as possible :)
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!!!!
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!
