nobody knows yet :P
allthough in theory it could work. epsxe has gun emulation through the mouse, but it's unplayable do to the lack of a crosshair. Since that gun seems to work similar to a mouse, it might work (guns dont need crosshairs). But, there are also mouse games that dont work with it, like virtua cop 2 for example. So while in theory it will work, it's not certain. And I'm not gonna shell out money for a lightgun again if I'm not certain.....because their last gun was a bit of a dissapointment.

There is a command line option to make it work I guess.
not sure though.

the new act-labs gun should be pretty good. If you read the review, it states why the light-gun doesnt work with virtua cop 2. The reason is the way vc2 uses the mouse, somehow this doesn't allow light guns to work properly. But in newer games, such as house of the dead 2, it works wonders. You should also try it with light-gun enabled emus, such as MAME, plenty of games to use light guns on
