Light Gun??? (Windows 10 Professional User)

I forgot i purchased this game a while back, i was wondering if any of you we're able to purchase a lightgun in order to play this game in arcade mode? i read a few articles a while back about Lightguns may be making a return someday, and a kickstarter thats being ran buy a guy who created a lightgun made just for LED/LCD and old CRT monitors. I really miss playing lightgun games, me and an old girlfriend used to go out and play a plethora of hunting and cult classic lightgun games, has anyone ever heard anything about being able to use a wiimote modding it with a raspberry pi wish i could find the article stating this information much better than self explanation on unsure memory. I really hope we can bring back those great times ahh the nostalgia

Man, I love me some arcade action!
Have you looked into Dolphin? It allows you to use any wiimote (or gun shaped wiimote) with a remote bar on your PC. Doesn't work for all games but I remember playing Blue Estate with it on Steam

I have PS Motion Controller and i've tried to connect my pc to use as a lightgun but it doesn't pair :( With PS Move Service tool. Any ideas?

This might not be much help, but here goes...

You cannot use true lightguns on modern HD displays. The short version is the tech in them as seen in the NES Zapper, etc. is incompatible. AFAIK it has to do with the display's refresh rate or something like that. Every time you were to shoot, you'll miss.

To the best of my knowledge, there are no adapters/drivers/patches to use the PS Move on the PC.
