As mentioned earlier I'm in the process of rebuilding my Tombstone Southwest layout. Thought it might be fun to try and recreate the OK Corral gunfight with old west figures, but I wanted some sound and light if possible. Decided to build my own. Picked up a toy gun from the Dollar store which had sound and light effects built into it. Rather than rewiring everything I just glued the gun to a blank, cut a hole in the table top and stuck the barrel up. Covered it with a mini stand and hid it with brush. I put my gunfighters on top shooting at the others below (not exactly how the OK fight went). I then made a little lever which I attached to the table top and ran a wire to the trigger on the gun. When the lever is pulled the gun fires. Seemed like a simple solution to a fun problem. Now when the kids come over they have another little feature to experiment with on the layout. I did a quick video with some pictures if you'd like to see it.
