For my next gun, I am thinking about modeling it after the Barret 50 caliber sniper rifle:

It will be another co-ax. Im thinking that if I sleeve the chamber with larger pipe, and put a rather weak spring behind the internals, it can reduce if not eliminate recoil, and it would look pretty cool :D I know it doesn't sound doable, but I was designing it all day and I think I have an idea. What do you guys think?

I didn't insert a link.

Here's a sketch of the design... ask if you need clarification on something because it may not be very explicit.

You could try making a cheytac m200 too ...

The sheytac would be simpler to build and you dont need to care about recoil (Id'say you want recoil)

Yeah I want recoil but I also want a way to absorb it. It's just a cool idea to me. And yeah, the pic was working on my desktop but not on my laptop. I'll change it.

After i will have made my 6mm carbine, i will make a chamber sealing ball bearing airgun that looks like an cheytac (some small differences tough) .

Does anybody has an idea of the recoil of a .5" ball bearing at 480 fps?

and again, no need to absorb the recoil ... seriously
The recoil would be less then a 9 mm

@demon

the recoil is very small, i shoot .625in ball bearings at 750fps with just the qev resting on my shoulder and im a bit of a wimp so a .5inch bearing will be just fine
