We present here a preliminary design, including RF modeling, cooling, and thermal stress and frequency detuning, of an S-band RF gun capable of running near 500 Hz, for application to FEL and inverse Compton scattering sources. The RF design philosophy incorporates many elements in common with the LCLS gun, but the approach to managing cooling and mechanical stress diverges significantly. We examine the new proprietary approach of RadiaBeam Technologies for fabricating copper structures with intricate internal cooling geometries. We find that this approach may enable very high repetition rate, well in excess of the nominal project this design is directed for, the SPARX FEL.
