Anyone remember the name of (if it had one) the shooting gallery? It was the one where the guns operated on light and a flash camera would set off all the targets. Targets that I remember included a piano player, a coo coo clock, cans, a bird and others. Anyone remember anything about this? It had some great sounds and animated targets.

Name? Location then, or now? Years it operated? Who made it and when? any other details?

I was more ticked off over the shooting gallery leaving the park than the Carolina Queen.

Anyone know where any close up pics are of it? Who made it (or custom made)? And if it was moved, destroyed, sold or in storage?

You'd think with all the people that took flash pictures of that thing (to trigger all the targets) that there would be at least a few on the net , but not that I have found through numerous google searchs (with different spellings and different word combos).

I imagine it was destroyed.
