Big Top is a twin rifle gun game manufactured by Chicago Coin in 1972. The game is electromechnical except for the gun sounds which are generated by transistors on a sound card....not bad for 1972 technology!

2 players can shoot simultaneously at the same targets or, as in this video, one player can shoot alone. The targets consist of swimming ducks and pop-up static targets which drop down when hit and, a bullseye target that is lit for short periods of time. A timer controls the game time, with additional time awarded for reaching a set score. the light that flashes in the lower left of the frame is the "Hit" indicator.

This video was filmed with a Fantec Beast Vision camera with the game's backglass removed.
