This is just a short list of some of my favorite Lightgun games and the systems that they are available on. Its by no means a complete list but its the core set of games that I wanted to get up and running.
If you are interested then there are plenty of instructions on getting the necessary emulators set up on this site and this list can just form a checklist for you.
I almost always just default to the most modern console that I can emulate well for any even game if there are multiple options.
The Wii and the PS2 are probably by 2 best recommendations for getting started as they are quite straight forward. I have to recommend the PSX as well just for Point Blank (my favorite!) though.
Here is the list in text in case that helps:

Philip is a life long gamer and enthusiast.
He first started gaming in the 80’s on an Atari 2600 and has never looked back. He has owned just about every major console since then.
His passion for retro gaming and emulation sprung from trying to recapture the excitement of playing light gun games like Time Crisis and Point Blank in the arcades by emulating them on a PC and has grown from there into a love of emulation and Retro Gaming.
