6.12) What lightguns were produced for the Atari?
This section by Andreas Koch. - Atari XG-1 Lightgun (came in two versions: a) complete with XEGS, keyboard, joystick, power supply, tv-cable, Lightgun, FS II cart and Bug Hunt cart all in one package and b) in a separate package, containing the Lightgun and the Bug Hunt cartridge); thats's why Bug Hunt does not have its own package, it was always included with the Lightgun package and/or the complete XEGS package... - BEST Lightgun by Best Electronics (a sort of selfmade (?) Lightgun); - Sega-Lightgun (normally not Atari compatible; but can be converted into an Atari compatible lightgun easily); - other lightguns (most of these have to be converted)... Note: After having 3-4 Atari and at least one (converted) Sega lightgun, it is my personal impression, that the Atari lightgun merely works ok on/with TV-sets (and not at all with a monitor), whereas the Sega lightgun works alright on TV's and (most) monitors. Since I never had a Best lightgun I cannot comment on this one... (Andreas Koch);
