Hi.

I couldn't find instructions on how to connect anywhere
Sega saturn Gun on original gunboard. 837-12079
then I came alone..

The Sega Saturn gun works perfectly on the original Hardware sega Model 2 and others
on Model 3 (Jurassic Park)

Just connect the connectors correctly to the correct pins on the gun board sega.

You have to have:

Original gunBoard
Sega Saturn gun
and two Sega Saturn ports, I bought them on Alienexpress (2 euros)

The wiring is for two sega saturn guns
The ports are practical because you can reattach the weapons to the sega saturn at any time

I tested House of the death, Virtua cop 2 and lost world jurassic park.

Button (shooting) and Start Button on the Pistol connect to
Gameboard CN13 Sega Model 2.

Very awesome. I had no clue the pinout for the Sega Stunner was that simple, though you can also hook up the Sega Light Phaser for Master System (identical pinout sans extra button) to a Model 2 Gun I/O and it will work with HOD and Virtua Cop 2. The light sensor is a bit weaker than the arcade gun possibly due to its rating, but as long as you adjust the brightness on your CRT you can fire away and kill Curien's creatures.

You do need a CRT that can natively support 24khz though. There are actually several VGA PC monitors from the mid-90s that could do 24khz, like my Iiyama VisionMaster 17-MF8617T VGA CRT with a Diamondtron tube. It takes time to find to find the proper and compatible monitor but once you pick it up and are able to lug it to your office, you'll love it.
 
Sega saturn gun is almost same as flood arcade gun.
It is a very simple connection.
And a good alternative if you don't have a Happ gun.
I personally like using a CRT gun more than an IR gun.
With a CRT gun, you don't worry about the distance from the Monitor, it is quite accurate and you only enjoy playing the game.

I think that the Dreamcast gun and Guncon gun (Namco) can also be attached, but I don't have these weapons.
I want to buy a Dreamcast gun and then I will also write the instructions when I find out how to connect it correctly..
