I just need to know if this is gonna work alright. I have built one with the normal Push on/push off switch with red button but you alway bump those stupid buttons and turn it off and on. Really annoying.

The hilt section you got has been specially drilled for a guarded switch, which it looks like you've also got. You should be fine.

Thanks. There were 2 different types of guarded switches so I wasn't sure. So I went with the latched one.

either the momentary or the latching would work fine. They have the same look, just different functions. your latching will work best for no sound or if you repurpose a MR/Hasbro board.
