Western Airguns .30 cal Full/Semi-Auto Carbine…….what?!

Careful he will run his mouth then block you like he did with me lol.
A bunch of us were blocked a couple months ago for failing to adequately submit to a rampage of “superior opinions”. I don’t really see the point of participating in a forum where you can only see a fraction of posts. However, if you have a pathological need to dominate conversations, I guess the block button can be used as an alternative to snapping crayons.
 
I'm a springer shooter, but I've gotta say that is one cool little carbine. 30 cal and select-fire too. I'm feeling the pull towards the PCP side...

Must resist...

It's a mixed bag when you block someone. Most users have some good knowledge and post good relevant info 20% of the time - then the other 80% they spend telling you how smart they are and how dumb you are. What's that old saying - you have to take the good with bad?

Now - relevant to this thread - I'd really like to take the Sidewinder for a spin, but shooting as a lefty I'm not a fan of cheese gratering my cheek. I wish designers would take us lefty shooters into consideration when designing a bullpup. I suppose I could reach out to some of our 3D printing modelers on here and have a slip on mag cover made

Once you have any experience with full-auto, you know the goal is short, controlled bursts.
Sure, in a combat setting, but with an airgun that’s really only a training scenario, (at least in my own experience so far).

Now being able to hold steady on target and fire full auto would be a game changer. I’ve got a Barra 400e BB gun and with that full auto effectively doubles its range. You can just hold steady on the target and release a stream of bbs. I think that a .22 shooting at 30 fpe or less might be able to do something similar.
 
Zero of my PB friends are envious of airguns honestly, certainly of this monstrosity.

That hasn’t been my experience. Most of my PB friends find my airguns extremely interesting, they just aren’t willing to spend the money on airguns that cost just as much or more than firearms. Myself, I realized decades ago that more than 90% of my shooting was done with airguns, so I may as well spend my money accordingly.
 
You should post some pics of your awesome “custom airguns” so we can see how beautiful they are.

With the price of ammo and reloading supplies many are quickly converting. I hang out with some old timers and they all mostly shoot airguns then some PB in matches. It’s all entertainment and social gatherings and airguns are better and cheaper(long run) regardless.
