Need help identifying what type of light gun this is...

Hi, I got this gun today and I was wondering what type of gun this is, it not like my traditional pink Namco gun. It’s kinda weird and I have never seen anything like it. I’ll post some pictures and I hope someone can help out and tell me if this is optical or IR.

“NAMED” Namco knock off. Optical. Pretty decent!

I want one of these new Sinden light guns (its actually a high speed cam inside).
Only problem being emulation is the only option for use, as it will not work with actual arcade hardware/games.

Ah I see lol! It fooled me. Now I want to try it out, is the pin out the same color wise? I got this break out cable from another gun and I’m wondering if it will work?

I think this shows a converter for the namco time crisis pinout, so maybe you can figure it out: https://www.arcadespareparts.com/screenshots/gun_assembly_for/54789_13629.html

I'm not sure if I have any of these anymore but if I find one or the harness I'll chime in again

I got it working, I got to say, the recoil on it is pretty weak compared to my real Namco gun, but it is much more accurate. I might just try to fit all the parts from this gun into the extra blue Namco shell I got, if not, then I’ll just steal the solenoid from it and fix the photodiode on the broken optical sensor pcb. You were right, it’s a neat, pretty awesome, close to original Namco knock off!

how many volts are you sending to the solenoid?
