Airsoft Handgun Design Information
Learn more about airsoft guns like pistols and how you can use them as backup guns or as primary weapons on the airsoft playing field. Getting the ideal sidearm and practicing with it can make all the difference in improving your shots. Sidearms, by nature, are reduced range airsoft weapons. They are typically made after genuine sidearms or models of legitimate pistols. A large number of airsoft handguns are completely certified releases of their real-world firearm counterparts. These airsoft guns can run in the same ways and look and feel identically to the real guns they are modeled after while shooting airsoft BBs instead of real bullets.
There are a few kinds of airsoft handguns consisting of CO2, green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric gun pistols. Each of these kinds of pistols come with negatives and positives related to them. Learning about the styles of airsoft handguns allows you to choose which type is right for you and your airsoft game play style.
CO2 Airsoft Pistols
CO2 airsoft handguns are among the most standard and tough varieties of handguns. They are all-season pistols and operate well in many kinds of weather and climates. These pistols use pressurized CO2 gas to launch airsoft BBs out of the gun barrel. The CO2 cartridge stores the gas within a cylinder and is generally located in the handgun’s magazine in the handle.
These kinds of airsoft handguns are good for playing airsoft in cold and snowy weather since the compressed CO2 gas is stored in the sealed cylinders and less vulnerable to performance variations with low temperatures. This offers good FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the wintertime for instance where other varieties of airsoft guns like green gas cease to operate or barely shoot airsoft BBs.
Additional Info About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridges
CO2 airsoft guns are powered by standard 12 gram CO2 cylinders. These cartridges look similar to a shiny steel cylinder and store high pressure CO2 gas comprised of 1 carbon atom and a pair of oxygen atoms, so the molecular formula is “C + O2 “. These atoms are attached in the following alignment “O= C =O”. The gas is kept in the 12 gram cartridges under really high pressure of near ~ 800psi that translates to 55bar.
The CO2 cartridges cannot be refilled and you can normally order them in bundles of 12, 20, 50, or 100 12 gram CO2 cartridge sets. They come sealed to retain the CO2 gas securely within, once they are punctured (shooting them inside of an airsoft weapon breaks the cartridge seal) they will start to lose pressure if they are not used up. You must attempt to run through the whole CO2 cartridge the exact same day you open the seal. If the airsoft games end and you still have CO2 gas left, use the chance to do some pistol accuracy and target practice and expend the remainder of the additional gas. There is no gas level guide on the cartridge so you have to shoot until the gun stops cycling.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges can be stored for a longtime. They have the maker’s expiration date normally listed on the box or cartridge, but they may last for a long period past this date if the cartridge seal is not broken.
Green Gas and Propane Airsoft Handguns
Green gas airsoft pistols are similar to CO2 pistols, but they do not use CO2 cartridges. The effect on the battleground and green gas weapon performance is practically the exact same as CO2 handguns with the weapons at about 300+ FPS.
The green gas is held in the handgun’s grip within the magazine and can typically hold roughly 15 to 20+ BBs based on the gun design. A set of valves, rubber stoppers, and seals keep the propane housed in the pistol mag up to when the handgun’s trigger is squeezed. It is a great plan to top off and refill your propane supply in your pistol mag each time you load it into the handgun. Pistol-wielding gamers can even carry excess bottles of green gas or propane in the field for reloading mags between lulls in the battle or between gameplay.
When using a green gas pistol on the airsoft field or arena as a primary or backup gun, bringing additional pistol mags is advised for quickly reloading and engaging the op force. Having additional mags allows you to join in the action throughout firefights or while sweeping structures in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fights.
Green gas handguns are ideal for CQB at airsoft fields considering long guns and full-sized AEGs are normally not permitted to be used for indoor gameplay. This is a safety regulation because of the close quarters distance of players during shooting engagements and potential for players to get hurt. While green gas handguns still fire airsoft BBs at about 300 FPS, the short handgun barrel assists to keep the joules and energy moving the BB lower compared to AEGs, sniper rifles, and long guns.
Thinking About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are 2 various varieties of green gas airsoft handguns. There are green gas blowback handguns or GBBs. These guns run like a real pistol with the slide “blowing back” and cycling with every shot. The gas causes the slide to cycle each time when a new airsoft BB is loaded into the chamber. The result is very cool, but the GBB weapons frequently cost more and potentially have more which can break. The green gas non-blowback airsoft guns use a stationary slide which does not move. The non-blowback handguns usually cost less than GBBs. Performance is about the same between the two kinds of green gas handguns.
About GBB and Green Gas Limits
While green gas normally can be used very well, it does have drawbacks. For example, when green gas guns are used throughout the winter in the snow or in cold weather (like lower 32 degrees F). Since the green gas or propane is kept in the pistol mag using rubber seals, o-rings, and gaskets, the cold can affect the seals and trigger the gas to escape before shooting. This can make the airsoft BBs to merely shoot a few feet (like 10 feet in cold temps ) when the gun would usually shoot BBs over 100+ foot distances in warmer temps).
One fix to this problem is to make the GBB handgun mags warmer by holding them next to your body or near a heat source just before game play. If you absolutely need to play with a dependable airsoft handgun in the cold, it may also be worth getting a CO2 version of your preferred handgun.
Spring Airsoft Sidearm Details
Spring airsoft pistols are powered by strong springs that fire the airsoft BBs down the pistol barrel. They are typically single-shot. The manual actions of reloading, cocking, and firing spring airsoft guns makes the fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB handguns. When fighting players on the airsoft field with upgraded rifles, fully auto airsoft AEG rifles and CO2, green gas, or GBB airsoft pistols, this makes spring airsoft pistols entertaining to use, but less efficient.
Spring handguns perform best in springer battles where airsoft players can just use similar, single shot spring weapons or as a close quarters backup weapon for CQB settings when you can often sneak up to other airsoft game players to get an assured one-shot-one-kill. In the latter case, a fast second follow-up shot isn’t really needed due to the fact that the other person is now hit by the airsoft BB and out of the game play or going back to respawn. Beware when engaging multiple enemies considering that the spring airsoft gun just fires as quickly as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB manually.
About Spring Handgun Effectiveness
Spring guns are incredibly reliable under the proper situations. Their FPS often chronos at about 250 FPS to 300 FPS with 0.12 gram airsoft BBs. These guns normally fire the lighter weight airsoft BBs since the springs are less powerful than other styles of airsoft guns like rifles. Spring guns can typically shoot up to 120 feet or more with 0.12 gram BBs however precision diminishes rapidly. Using standard 0.20 gram weight airsoft BBs, you will most likely have a reduced shooting distance of around 60 to 80 feet or less with enhanced target accuracy.
Facts About AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Handguns
AEG airsoft sidearms or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are also an option to bring as a secondary weapon on the airsoft field. These automatic electric pistols are often powered by mini stick batteries in the weapon’s grip. They operate just like an AEG gun and use compressed air forced through electrically cycled cylinders, pistons, and gearboxes to fire airsoft BBs out of the barrel and very quickly at that.
AEG handgun magazines usually hold around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The pistols can shoot airsoft BBs right up to around 300 FPS using 0.12g airsoft BBs or around 200 to 250 FPS when loaded with 0.20g airsoft BBs. The electrical gearbox system can shoot around 700+ BBs per minute which is estimated if you have enough magazines to reload the gun and the battery lasts that long. These AEP pistols can effectively shoot airsoft BBs at about 150 foot ranges.
AEG Pistol Quality and Performance
AEG pistol quality has risen substantially over the last few years. The earliest generation guns were a little bit questionable and undependable, however the new designs have the issues resolved and make reliable airsoft secondary guns. They can be modded with increased mag capacities in addition to accommodating bigger batteries.
A huge advantage of carrying an AEG pistol is that you have the capacity to rewire the connections to use a more substantial battery with longer life. Depending on the AEG pistol type, you can gain a large jump in efficiency by utilizing a 2 cell Lipo battery (2S Lipo) in place of the stock mini battery. Take extra precautions when changing the elements and wires because you should take into consideration the volts, mAh, and electrical loads of the battery. Ask a professional airsoft gun service technician at your nearest airsoft shop or store if you have modding concerns.
Which Airsoft Handgun is Right for Me?
Picking out the most ideal airsoft sidearm for you depends on how much you can afford, how often you plan to play airsoft using it, and where you plan to play. Look at a GBB handgun or automatic electric AEP handgun if you have more than one-hundred dollars to invest on your airsoft pistol. These guns are typically the top-tier guns, have the greatest performance, and could be a really good airsoft gun to invest in. Look at a CO2 pistol or less expensive green gas GBB handgun if you have in-between more than fifty but less than one-hundred dollars to put into an airsoft gun purchase. These mid-tier guns will still be fun to play with and can be pretty long lasting sidearms. Look for a low end CO2 or spring pistol if you have less than fifty dollars. You can still buy a long-lasting airsoft handgun to use for the pistol games.
