I just purchased a Genco state fair rifle gallery. It's in partially
working condition. Basically it turns on and will fire with recoil and
some targets will drop. I immediately recognized the selenium
rectifier on the transformer, and I will have to put a modern bridge
rectifier instead. If anyone has any tips or can send me some pictures
of your rifle game, it will be appreciated.

Also, I would like to know what is your point of reference when
adjusting the rifle stylus on the board so that when you aim correctly
at a target it registers.
 
Update: I installed the bridge rectifier and added the fuse, as per the directions on the 'this old pinball' website. I sent Clay Harrel who runs the website some scans of the schematic and pictures of the game in general, and he will post them shortly on his website. I am having trouble with this one motor, though. I think that the gears are worn away inside of the casing and I will need to rebuild it or have someone else rebuild it for me. Does anyone know of such a person or company this does motor rebuilds? Its a 25 RPM 120V motor.

Any chance you still have the State Fair gun game and can scan that very bottom cardboard piece for me?

I just picked one up this past weekend and that piece is missing.

Also, if it is a multi products motor pinball resource has the contract with them to rebuild their motors.
