This 2G+R reaction can insert an R into a salvo and is gunable:
Code: Select all
x = 14, y = 13, rule = B2ci3ai4c8/S02ae3eijkq4iz5ar6i7e
6b2o$5bob2o$6b2o2$11b2o$11bo$11b3o3$2b2o$bob2o$2b2o!
It allows for pseudo R-guns for all periods p>31. Here is the p=32 example:
Code: Select all
x = 68, y = 80, rule = B2ci3ai4c8/S02ae3eijkq4iz5ar6i7e

Unfortunately this does not give us an p32 pseudo G gun.
For some reasons we can also construct a p=31 salvo, but only when every second R has a different colour. So a proper p=31 pseudo gun is not possible using this principle.
EDIT1:
more on R guns:
A found a p3 2G to R converter which works on two periods:
Code: Select all
x = 71, y = 19, rule = B2ci3ai4c8/S02ae3eijkq4iz5ar6i7e
6bo25bo23bo$4b3o23b3o21b3o$4bo25bo23bo2bo$8bo23bo23bo$5bobo2bo5b2o13b
2o3bo5b2o11b3o2bo5b2o$8bo7bo15bo9bo13bo9bo$4bo11b2o12bo11b2o10bo2bo8b
2o$4b3o23b3o21b3o$6bo25bo23bo8$14b3o23b3o21b3o$14bobo23bobo21bobo!
This has a minimal repeat time of 21, so it works for p=21+ 3n:
Code: Select all
x = 29, y = 32, rule = B2ci3ai4c8/S02ae3eijkq4iz5ar6i7e
$2bo$3o$o$4bo$bobo2bo5b2o9b2o$4bo7bo9b2obo$o11b2o9b2o$3o$2bo8$10b3o$
10bobo9$11bo$10b3o$10bobo$11bo!
Thus, we have a p30 R gun:
Code: Select all
x = 94, y = 117, rule = B2ci3ai4c8/S02ae3eijkq4iz5ar6i7e
