Currently only ACT LABS has light guns for PC. But wait until Christmas 2005 and...:

Interesting how it is accurate and how will work with MAME.

Looks good. I would think it would work with MAME. Maybe I should e-mail them the question. I can't believe it works with LCD monitors.

It works, because use RGT system (camera tracking).
One of person who bought G1 gun (for consoles) talk there:

With RGT system is possible make more 'controllers', for exapmle swords :P

The ACT-Labs gun is good, but I miss having machine gun capability with it. You can't hold in the trigger on games like Under Fire to use the Full Auto powerup- I use a trackball mouse to aim FA shots on this one.

If the RGT gun for PC supports full auto, it's a deal.
