'''Period-50 glider gun''' is an extensible [[Gun#True-period_guns|true period]]-50 glider gun discovered by [[Dean Hickerson]] on October 13, [[:Category:patterns found in 1996|1996]]. It is based on a period-44 gun by [[David Buckingham]] and the [[p50 traffic jam]] oscillator to restore the blinker, as well as 2 copies of this mechanism to restore the blinker in the middle. It can be made to have more than 1 barrel. <ref name="ref1">{{cite web|url=http://entropymine.com/jason/life/|title=Pattern Collections, jslife/osc |author=Jason Summers|date=December 30, 2012|accessdate=February 22, 2017}}</ref> | '''Period-50 glider gun''' is an extensible [[Gun#True-period_guns|true period]]-50 glider gun discovered by [[Dean Hickerson]] on October 13, [[:Category:patterns found in 1996|1996]].

Period-50 glider gun is an extensible true period-50 glider gun discovered by Dean Hickerson on October 13, 1996. It is based on a period-44 gun by David Buckingham and the p50 traffic jam oscillator to restore the blinker, as well as 2 copies of this mechanism to restore the blinker in the middle. It can be made to have more than 1 barrel. [1]
In 2004, David Bell, produced a variant using only a single oscillator with a glider loop.[1] It is possible to restore the blinker by using queen bee shuttles but that makes this gun pseudo. The true period would then be p150.
