Review: Technically better design despite cheap construction. - I seem to be one of the few who didn't get a defective one, so this review applies solely to the one I received. While it lacks some of the nostalgia factor (that spring twang and stiff trigger) I'd say it works better than the original. The smooth trigger lets me spam it for some real sharpshooting, making me feel like I'm in a western or something. With this design, one can shoot both ducks in a split second. I squeezed the trigger a bit hard as a stress test, and it holds quite well on its own. The plastic's a bit softer and thinner. Added on to the fact that it has less internal workings thanks to slightly more modern and less costly parts, it feels quite a bit lighter. But it doesn't really feel like it's just a cheap knockoff, in spite of it being exactly that. So, as long as you're not taking a hammer to it, it should hold up all right. They used a slightly modified mold, so it looks near identical to the original with the exception of the stock. It's just as comfortable to hold, too. If you want to save a few bucks over a used original Zapper, then go for it. My expectations for this were pretty low considering the brand and price. I figured it was only 6 bucks and this thing greatly exceeded my expectations based on the reviews. I'm guessing that the worst case scenario is that you get one of the few defective ones and you'll have to exchange it. And no, it doesn't work on flatscreen TVs. The way the games are designed to work make it impossible to use anything but a curved CRT. If you want to play on a modern TV, get the Wii U virtual console version and use the Wii Remote..
Review: Don't work on new TV led. - Look pretty nice and design. Good price. But it don't work on modern TV. I have the original nes gun but don't work on new tv.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this work on a flat screen TV?**
A: At the moment, no light gun will work with modern flat screen TVs. ALL of them require an old style CRT type of TV. This is not a defect. It's simply how these light guns were designed and how the games were programmed. LCD, LED, and plasma TVs didn't exist back then. All TVs back then had tubes. The guns and games were designed with certain technology in mind. Flatscreen TVs do not operate the same way as CRT TVs.If you want to play Duck Hunt on a modern TV, I'm only aware of the version on the Wii U virtual console working with HDTVs. Nintendo reprogrammed that version to use the Wii Remote sensors, not a light gun. I used to own a Wii U, and I played that version.

**Q: Will this work on a projector tv**
A: It will not work. The light gun has to reflect IR light off the glass. Projection TVs do not have glass screens and should be interlaced and in 50/60Hz. At best, you might get some stray shots to register.

**Q: does this work for duck hunt?**
A: It does work with duck hunt. However, the zapper's technology Allows it to only works on the old fashion CRT tvs, but will not work on modern plasma or lcd tvs (don't know about projectors).

**Q: Would this be okay just as an display item?**
A: Yes. I actually own two and that is all there good for. If your a collector this would be a perfect item.

### ⭐ Don't work on new TV led.

Look pretty nice and design. Good price. But it don't work on modern TV. I have the original nes gun but don't work on new tv.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Decent Alternative Zapper
*by J***N on November 22, 2025*

For the price, this is a rather decent light gun that will get you up and running to play your favorite NES light gun games. If you have ever held a real NES Zapper, there are a few things you are going to notice immediately. The first is the grip. The grip of this light gun is less ergonomic than the original and rather blocky. It does dig into the hands a little bit, which could be an issue for using it for an extended amount of time, but for the occasional quick Duck Hunt sessions, it is only a minor annoyance. The second is the weight, it is lighter than the original zapper, which can be a pro or a con depending on your preference. For me this is somewhat preferred. The third is the trigger. It is very very different than the original zapper. It is a lot more clicky and has far less travel. You will not get the satisfying twang that you probably remember, but technically this is an improvement when it comes to the actual performance of the light gun. Lastly, the barrel length is shorter. This in my opinion does not make much of a difference, really just an aesthetic preference. I guess you could argue it could effect how a longer barrel can help with pointing, but it's likely not even measurable performance wise. All in all, this is easy to recommend if you do not have an original NES Zapper or if you are looking for a back up. It is inexpensive, relatively well built and works exactly as advertised. Keep your expectations in check and you will be extremely satisfied with your purchase if you happen to pick this up.
