I just purchase the Lethal Enforcers 1 + 2 Pack and Area 51 for the PSX. I need a good light gun for both games that's good and doesn't cost a lot of money. I can't use the GunCon for these games since both games are not compatable with it. I'm trying to find the Konami's Justifier gun for the PSX without any luck. So, I need to buy a very good 3rd party light gun that's very good and doesn't break the bank.
Can anyone tell me what's a good light gun to buy in the US (I need two light guns)?
I friend of mine told me these tips about purchasing a light gun:
- the trigger shouldn't have sharp egdes (some guns are REALLY
uncomfortable to play with because of this)
- the guns isn't to big or too small for your hands.
- the cable is long enough and not too heavy. Wireless light guns are an
options, but wireless PSX guns tend to be a bit cluncky
If you guys can help me out then thanks!

I've tried a lot of light guns. Nothing measures up to the GunCon and the Justifer. There was a site that rated almost every gun for psx but I cannot find it. The Phazer stinks and there is a grey one that looks like the justifier that isn't very good either. Beware a lot of the cheap ones on Ebay. The Justifier and GunCon are about the only truly good guns. The Cobra is usually cheap and Easy to pick-up. My suggestion is to suck it up and get a GunCon and a Justifier. You'll want to pick-up more games anyway. I recommend Project Horned Owl, Jesse James:Gunfighter, Elemental Gearbolt and all of the Point Blanks. The Time Crisis games are good too but I don't like them as much. Here's a Cobra, a Justifier, and a 2 GunCon all on Ebay.

I've played all of the gun games, so you can ask me about any of them.

guncon has no recoil - so if thats important you may want to find another one
im not sure which one i have -- i think its the cobra
its blue - looks sci-fi-ish ( not like a real gun) and has LEDs along the side of it that light up when the trigger is depressed. the gun also has recoil
i couldnt click on the link above since ebay is blocked here

There's a Justifier gun in box that I once traded in to a vendor at the local fleamarket, and he still has it. I forgot his price (could be $5-10), but if you're still needing one by this Sunday I can get it for you.

There's a guncon/guncon2/justifier combo gun with kickback and pedal support that is shaped like a desert eagle. supposedly thrustmaster made them, mine is green and has no company logos, i assume it's some kind of pirate version but it's quite well-constructed. I've yet to ever get the kickback to work but mine is used. I think i paid maybe 9 bucks for it at a game exchange.
The official PSX justifier by konami is a funky green thing, i got one used at the same store for...8 dollars i think.
The green deagle is pretty nice although the trigger might have a bit of sharpness to it, and it is somewhat heavy so extended play might make your arm sore. I've not tried it with a pedal as i don't have one (are those things all the same? i only see ones that are "for" other lightguns).

I'd be interested in that. I've got a copy of Lethal Enforcers 1 & 2 that I've been wanting to play ever since I got it but I could never find a Justifier gun to use with it.
