ok now well I've had the thought of making a semi-auto longshot. I have a longshot so before i go destroying anything i would like an opinion on this so well here it goes. My design was going to be external. i was going to have an extension spring attached from the bolt to the stock of the gun. I will have it so that the spring doesn't start to pull back until the bolt is all the way forward. then i was going to have an extension spring going from the bolt to the front of the gun by the barrel. i was going to have it so that this spring doesn't start to pull until the bolt is all the way back. so with the bolt lock still in it will be somewhat semi-auto right? because the one spring will pull it forward, the bolt with lock, then after firing then the other spring will pull it back and then the cycle continues. so will this work? i think i mite have to make the spring in the back strong enough to pull the plunger back but not to strong so that it destroys the whole cycle.....so will this work and how could i modify the design?

If you go on youtube search up: Semi auto longshot and click on sgmik's videos. He has made 4 prototypes, with the 4th prototype he got ranges of 80-90 feet. Any way your idea probably will not work. Also i would be careful what you post. *wink wink*

Still no capitalization, still completely incoherent, and still asking us to figure out if your ideas work.

What was the point of pming me with a longwinded apology if you're just going to repeat your mistakes imediately afterwards?
