I'll have to think of a good acronym for this, I went back to auto pistons, and piston valve bolt combo designs, and I thought of this as a fully automatic valve and bolt system , with a constant air source this should run full auto on it's own, I don't have the proper spring for the bolt return so I designed a pneumatic spring system that has just a little less pressure than the input
so basically there are several seals here made using the whole brian washer and sheet rubber sandwich thing the diagram should explain it all
Special Thanks to Flash when trying to think of ways to fix his design I came up with this
I'm currently working on the prototype

Damn, you made some nice drawings there. You should make an animation from it. The thing I dont get is how the actuate the valve. Is the back of the piston stem connected to the back? Or is it not supposed to move. I think this design looks like the autobreech system, but it has a special air spring'' feature. Which is nicely thought of:) It comes from all branches. But yeah I am curious about ur acuation.

Looks a tad overly complex until you really start looking at it, then you realize it’s ingenuously simple.
Only thing is, is there enough surface area on the back of the bolt to over come the return system?
Lookin’ good though.

Looks to me like the rod with the pistons on it is anchored at the rear so it doesn't move, it just kinds plugs the center of the bolt untill the bolt moves forward. The triggering should in theory happen just by supplying air to the manifold: as the manifold pressure increases, the force overcomes the pneumatic spring and pushes the bolt forward. This exposes slightly more of the bolt to the force of air (note that the forward piston/seal is smaller), and then the bolt shoots forward, closes off the ammo tube, and fires. Then the pressure in the manifold drops so that the bolt returns.

Come to think of it, that's pretty much just a fancy-butt blowforward breach. I'd say relative to the diagram, the difference in surface area probably needs to be greater at that step. That way, the valve will blow open violently enough to vent the pressure down to where it will actually close. Hmm, you'll probably want a firing chamber hooked up to that manifold, so you can afford to moderate the flow a bit lower (to allow the thing to shut) without loosing power. Or perhaps there might be a way to link that bolt to a mechanism to valve that could shut off the flow into the manifold when the bolt goes all the way forward.
Yeah, looks like you've licked the blowforward valve problem though!

tell me if you have a problem with the larger bmp, because saving as jpegs have worse quality for simple diagrams like this
jpg = quality loss
bmp = huge file size
use PNG
Low file size, no quality loss

I still dont get what the bottom poppet/schrader valve is for? You said you had a on/off air supply. But how does this schrader play a role?

Ah, I get it now
Very interesting concept, it certainly merits further thought. The tricky part I can see is getting the bolt to start moving as opposting to "hanging" as seems to be the problem with most of the auto designs that have cropped up here.
edit: shitty animation I know but I was in a hurry, I'll make a better one later.

Ah k so the reservoir with the two schrader valves is only for the airspring? > If so> it could be lots smaller I guess.

Ah… I knew it looked familiar.
Well, I guess that means, if built right, it’ll work.
