Airsoft Handgun Style Details
Find information about airsoft handguns and sidearms and how you can use them as extra weapons or as primary weapons on the airsoft playing field. A lot of airsoft pistols are fully certified editions of their authentic pistol counterparts and run and appear in the same ways while shooting airsoft BBs rather than genuine bullets.
There are a variety of airsoft sidearms consisting of CO2, propane or green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric handguns. Each of these forms of handguns have benefits and differences related to them. Finding out about the styles of airsoft pistols lets you figure out which type is right for you and your airsoft gameplay style.
CO2 Airsoft Handgun Details
CO2 airsoft guns are one of the most typical and sturdy types of handguns. These pistols use CO2 stored in small cylinders to launch airsoft BBs out of the weapon barrel.
These kinds of airsoft guns are good choices for playing airsoft in cold temperatures due to the fact that the pressurized CO2 gas is less vulnerable to variation caused by temperature levels. This offers exceptional FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the cold weather for example where other styles of airsoft guns like green gas stop working or hardly shoot BBs.
Information About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridge Cylinders
CO2 airsoft guns are powered by basic 12 gram CO2 cylinders. These cartridges look similar to a chrome metal cylinder and hold high pressured CO2 gas made up of a single carbon atom and a pair of oxygen atoms, consequently the molecular formula comes out to be “C + O2 “. These atoms are bound in the following order “O= C =O”. The gas is stored in the 12 gram cartridge cylinders under really high pressure of near ~ 800psi that translates to 55bar.
The CO2 gas cartridges cannot be refilled and you can commonly purchase them in packs of 12, 20, 50, or 100 12 gram CO2 cartridge sets. They come sealed to retain the CO2 gas safely within, but as soon as they are punctured (firing them in an airsoft handgun breaks the seal) cartridges will begin to lose pressure if they are not expended. You ought to try to consume the entire CO2 cartridge the same day you open the seal. Use the opportunity to do some pistol target practice and use up the rest of the extra gas if the airsoft games end and you still have CO2 gas left. There is no gas level gauge on the cartridge so you need to shoot until the weapon stops shooting airsoft BBs.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges have a long storage life. They do have the supplier’s expiration date typically listed on the box or cartridge cylinder, however, they can maintain pressure for a very long period past this date if the cartridge seals are not punctured.
Green Gas and Propane Airsoft Handguns
Green gas airsoft handguns are similar to CO2 pistols, but they use green gas or propane instead of CO2 cartridges. The impact on the battleground and green gas weapon efficiency is virtually the same as CO2 handguns with the weapons shooting up to 300+ FPS.
The green gas is stashed in the handgun’s airsoft magazine that can frequently hold in-between 15 to 20+ BBs based on the pistol style. A series of valves, rubberized gaskets, and silicone seals keep the gas stored in the mag up until the pistol’s trigger is squeezed.
When using a green gas pistol on the airsoft field or arena as a primary or secondary weapon, additional handgun mags are highly recommended for quickly reloading and getting back into the game. Having extra mags on-hand allows you to reengage in the action throughout firefights or while clearing structures in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fighting.
Green gas pistols are ideal for CQB at airsoft fields considering that rifles, long guns, and full-sized AEGs are usually not permitted to be used for indoor game play. This is a safety regulation because of the close range distance of gamers during the shooting engagements and the potential for players to be injured. While green gas pistols can still fire airsoft BBs at around 300 FPS, the shorter handgun barrel assists to keep the joules and energy launching the BB lower compared to AEGs, sniper rifles, and other long guns.
Thinking About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are two various types of green gas airsoft pistols. There are green gas blowback pistols or GBBs. The green gas non-blowback airsoft pistols use a fixed slide which does not move.
About GBB and Green Gas Issues
While green gas normally functions extremely well, it does have limitations. This includes when they are used in the winter airsoft games in the snow or in very cold temperatures (like under 32 degrees F). Given that the green gas or propane gas is kept in the pistol mag using rubber seals, o-rings, and gaskets, cold temperatures can impair the seals and trigger the stored gas to escape before shooting airsoft BBs. The depressurized gas can cause the airsoft BBs to only shoot several feet (like 10 feet in cold temps ) when the gun would usually shoot airsoft BBs over 100+ foot ranges in warmer weather).
One solution to this issue is to make the GBB pistol magazines warmer by holding them next to your body, beside a heater, or inside your jacket just before the airsoft game play starts. If you truly need to play with a dependable airsoft pistol in the cold weather, it may also be worth getting a CO2 version of your preferred pistol.
Spring Airsoft Pistol Info
Spring airsoft handguns are powered by strong springs that launch the airsoft BBs out of the handgun barrel. They are generally able to only shoot one BB at a time. The manual functions of reloading, cocking, and firing spring pistols makes the fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB handguns. When engaging attackers on the airsoft field with advanced weaponry, auto airsoft AEG rifles, SMGs, sniper rifles, and CO2, green gas, or GBB airsoft pistols, this can make spring airsoft pistols enjoyable to use, however less effective.
Spring airsoft guns work best in springer battles where participants can only use comparable, single shot spring pistols or as a transitional backup gun for CQB buildings when you can often surprise other airsoft opponents to get a guaranteed one-shot-one-kill. In the latter case, a rapid 2nd follow-up shot isn’t required given that the other player is now hit and out of the game or running back to respawn. When engaging numerous airsoft players considering that the springer simply fires as fast as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB manually, be cautious.
About Spring Pistol Effectiveness
Spring guns are incredibly efficient under the appropriate scenarios and airsoft games. Their FPS commonly chronos at around 250 FPS to 300 FPS with lighter 0.12g airsoft BBs. These weapons normally fire the lighter weight airsoft BBs due to the fact that the pitched springs are less powerful than other types of airsoft guns like rifles. Spring handguns can typically shoot up to 120 feet or more with 0.12g BBs but the ability to engage targets reduces quickly. Using basic 0.20g weight airsoft BBs, you will very likely have a reduced shooting distance of about 60 to 80 feet or less with heightened target accuracy.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Handgun Details
AEG airsoft handguns or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are definitely a good choice to carry as a secondary gun on the airsoft field. These automatic electric pistols are commonly powered by mini stick batteries in the gun’s grip. They work much like an AEG rifle and use compressed air pumped through electrically cycled gearboxes, pistons, and cylinders to fire airsoft BBs quickly and rapidly.
AEG handgun magazines usually can carry around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The handguns can shoot airsoft BBs approximately about 300 FPS when loaded with 0.12 gram airsoft BBs or about 200 to 250 FPS with 0.20g airsoft BBs. The electrically powered gearbox system can shoot around 700+ 6mm BBs per minute which depends on if you have enough spare mags to maintain the ammo supply and the battery lasts that long. These AEP pistols can effectively shoot airsoft BBs at around 150 foot ranges.
AEG Handgun Quality and Performance
AEG pistol quality has actually increased significantly over the last few years. The initial gen AEP guns were a bit sketchy and unreliable, but the new models have the bugs resolved and make effective airsoft secondary guns. They can be modified with maximized magazine storage capacities together with accommodating more powerful batteries.
A significant advantage of carrying an AEG pistol is that you have the capability to rewire the adapters to use a larger capacity battery. Depending on the AEG pistol design, you can gain a huge increase in functionality by taking advantage of a 2 cell Lipo battery (2S Lipo) rather than the stock battery.
Which Airsoft Pistol is Right for Me?
If you have over $100 to use to buy your airsoft pistol, evaluate a GBB pistol or automatic electric handgun. If you have in-between fifty to one-hundred dollars to invest, check out a good quality CO2 handgun or less expensive GBB handgun. If you are on a budget, you can still find a long lasting airsoft pistol to use for the handgun games.
