P16-assisted period-32 glider gun is a true period 32 glider gun discovered by Mitchell Riley on October 24, 2022. The oscillator was found in a CatForce search by Mitchell Riley but noticed by iNoMed. Then, Mitchell Riley ran CatForce on the uncapped output, and a third Rich's p16 worked to output a glider.

This glider gun is the smallest known p32 glider gun by bounding box; see the period-32 glider gun page for previous larger guns.

The base oscillator is related to both the twin bees shuttle and dueling banjos, but the twin bees shuttle spark doesn't work, interfering too early.
