Seeing as no-one has stepped forward, since this was first asked at the
weekend, it looks like no-one has tried this yet. Assuming that this is
because I was a bit vague in my description of the circuit, then here is
a bit more info. I'm not promising it's a perfect workable solution, as
I've only spent a couple of minutes on it but it should get you pretty
close to what is needed.
Firstly, get yourself a copy of the schematics for a Hantarex Polo
monitor, (they're out there on the web somewhere). Take a look at the
three RGB input sections, these are emitter follower video buffers.
All you really need to do is copy these, and throw a couple of
resistors on the outputs.
Looking at the red channel, you will need to build a duplicate citcuit
comprising of D146, C131, T103, and R136,7,8. Where R139 is connected
to the transistor you'll need to connect a few extra resistors as shown
in the ascii diagram below (please engage fixed pitch font now!)

There you go, one video buffer. Connect to the 12v supply on your
Supergun and add a 470uF electrolytic and a 0.1uF ceramic capacitor
across the supply rails close to the transistor, to provide some
local supply decoupling.
Repeat three times and you should be able to get a nice clear
picture on your scart monitor.
If anyone does try this, then feel free to email me direct with any
questions/problems with the circuit. Of course if it works perfectly
first time, then brag about it on the list ;-)
