Airsoft Pistol Style Additional Info
Learn more about airsoft pistols and how you can use them as backup weapons or as main weapons on the airsoft playing field. Practicing your shot accuracy and getting the best pistol can make a big difference in nailing your shots. Sidearms, naturally, are reduced range airsoft weapons. They are most often developed after authentic handguns or replications of authentic pistols. Numerous airsoft sidearms are completely licensed versions of their real world gun counterparts. These airsoft guns can function in the same ways and visually appear similarly to the real guns they are designed around while shooting airsoft BBs as opposed to genuine bullets.
There are a variety of airsoft sidearms consisting of CO2, green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric gun pistols. Each of these forms of handguns has positives and negatives connected with them. Learning about the kinds of airsoft handguns helps you make a decision on which type is right for you and your airsoft game play style.
CO2 Airsoft Handgun Details
CO2 airsoft sidearms are one of the most common and dependable styles of pistols. They are all season handguns and operate well in many kinds of temperatures, weather and environments. These pistols use high pressure CO2 gas to propel airsoft BBs down the gun barrel. The CO2 cartridge is usually held in the gun’s mag inside the handle.
These forms of airsoft guns are exceptional for playing in cold temperatures considering that the compressed CO2 gas is stored in the sealed cylinders and less susceptible to FPS decreases caused by temperature. This fact gives CO2 airsoft sidearms excellent FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the winter season for example where other kinds of guns like green gas cease to operate or barely fire airsoft BBs.
Additional Info About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridge Cylinders
CO2 airsoft sidearms are powered by basic 12 gram CO2 cartridges. These cartridges resemble a shiny metallic cylinder and contain high-pressure CO2 gas consisting of 1 carbon atom and a pair of oxygen atoms hence the molecular formula is “C + O2”.
They come sealed to keep the CO2 gas safely inside, but once they are opened (shooting them inside of an airsoft weapon breaks the seal) they will begin to lose pressure if they are left unused. If the airsoft games end and you still have CO2 gas left, use the opportunity to do some handgun target practice and use up the rest of the remaining gas.
CO2 cartridges can be stored for a longtime if the cylinders are stored sealed. They are made with the maker’s best used by date usually noted on the box or cartridge, but they will probably stay pressurized for a prolonged period past this date if the cartridge seal is not broken.
Green Gas Airsoft Handguns
Green gas airsoft pistols are similar to CO2 handguns, but they use propane gas instead of CO2 cartridges. The result on the battleground and green gas weapon efficiency is virtually the exact same as CO2 handguns with the weapons at around 300+ FPS.
The green gas is held in the pistol’s grip within the magazine and can frequently hold roughly 15 to 20+ 6mm BBs based on the gun design. A set of valves, rubber stoppers, and o-rings keep the propane housed in the pistol magazine until the handgun’s trigger is squeezed. It is a great choice to top off and fill up the propane reserves in the pistol mag each time you load it into the gun. Pistol-wielding airsoft players can even take supplemental bottles of propane in the field for reloading mags between breaks in the fight or in-between missions.
When playing with a green gas pistol on the airsoft field or arena as a primary or secondary gun, bringing extra magazines is encouraged for rapidly reloading and engaging the op force. Having additional magazines on-hand helps you join in the action in the middle of firefights or while sweeping buildings in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room combat.
Green gas pistols are ideal for CQB at airsoft fields considering that rifles and full-sized AEGs are generally not allowed to be used for indoor engagements. This is a safety regulation because of the close quarters distance of players during shooting engagements and the potential for players to be hurt. While green gas pistols still shoot airsoft BBs at around 300 FPS, the shorter pistol barrel helps to keep the joules and energy sending the BB at a lower level compared to AEGs, airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and other long guns.
Thinking About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are 2 various styles of green gas airsoft pistols. There are green gas blowback pistols or GBBs where the slide moves and non-blowback handguns. The green gas non-blowback airsoft pistols have a fixed slide which does not move.
About GBB and Green Gas Limits
While green gas typically functions effectively, it does have drawbacks. For example, when they are played with during the winter airsoft season in the snow or in colder temperatures (like less than 32 degrees F). Since the green gas or propane is held in the pistol mag using rubber seals and gaskets, cold temperatures can impair the seals and make the stored gas to leak out before shooting airsoft BBs. This can cause the airsoft BBs to merely shoot several feet (like 10 feet in the cold ) when the gun would ordinarily shoot airsoft BBs over 100+ foot distances in warmer weather).
One strategy to this issue is to keep the GBB pistol mags warmer by holding them next to your body or by a heater prior to game play starts. If you truly need to play with a dependable airsoft pistol in the cold, it might also be worth getting a CO2 style of your favorite pistol.
Spring Airsoft Handguns
Spring airsoft guns are powered by powerful springs with irregular pitches that launch the BBs out of the gun barrel. They are generally able to only shoot one BB. The manual actions of reloading, cocking, and firing spring guns makes the fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB pistols. This makes spring airsoft guns entertaining to use, however they are less effective when shooting at adversaries on the airsoft field with advanced guns like automatic airsoft AEG rifles, SMGs, sniper rifles, and CO2 or GBB airsoft handguns.
Spring airsoft guns work most effectively in springer battles where opponents can only use comparable, single shot spring pistols or as an alternative weapon for CQB buildings when you can frequently sneak up to other airsoft players to get a guaranteed one-shot-one-kill. In the latter circumstance, a rapid 2nd followup shot isn’t needed given that the other player is already hit by the first BB and out of the game play or running back to respawn. Take care when engaging a number of opponents since the weapon just fires as quick as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB by hand.
About Spring Handgun Effectiveness
Spring guns are remarkably efficient under the right conditions. Their FPS generally chronos at about 250 FPS to 300 FPS with lighter 0.12g airsoft BBs. These guns typically fire the lighter weight airsoft BBs because the springs are less powerful than other kinds of airsoft guns. Spring pistols can typically engage targets at ranges of up to 120 feet or more with 0.12g BBs but precision decreases rapidly. Using conventional 0.20g weight airsoft BBs, you will very likely have a reduced shooting distance of about 60 to 80 feet or less with increased accuracy.
Facts About AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Pistols
AEG airsoft pistols or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are also a good choice to carry as a backup weapon on the airsoft field. These automatic electric pistols are typically powered by mini stick batteries in the gun’s handle. They operate much like an AEG rifle and use pressured air forced through electrically cycled pistons, cylinders, and gearboxes to shoot airsoft BBs out of the barrel and very rapidly at that.
AEG handgun mags generally hold about 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The handguns can fire airsoft BBs approximately around 300 FPS when loaded with 0.12 gram airsoft BBs or 200 to 250 FPS when loaded with 0.20 gram airsoft BBs. The electric gearbox system can shoot around 700+ BBs per minute which depends if you have enough spare magazines to maintain the ammo supply and the battery lasts that long. These AEP handguns can efficiently shoot airsoft BBs at about 150 foot distances.
AEG Handgun Quality and Efficiency
AEG pistol quality has actually increased substantially in the last few years. The first generations were a bit questionable and undependable, however the new models have the bugs worked out and make effective airsoft backup guns. They can be modified with enhanced magazine capacities together with accommodating more powerful batteries.
A big perk of carrying an AEG pistol is that you have the capability to rewire the wires to use a bigger battery with longer life. Based on the AEG pistol version, you are able to gain a sizable leap in functionality using a 2 cell Lipo battery (like an 2S Lipo) as an alternative to the stock AEP battery. Beware of adjusting the elements and wires since you must think about the voltages, mAh, and loads of the battery. Ask an experienced airsoft gun specialist at your nearest airsoft shop if you have modding problems.
Which Airsoft Sidearm is Right for Me to Buy?
Picking out the ideal airsoft pistol for you depends upon how much you can afford, how often you intend to play airsoft using it, and where you hope to play. Consider a GBB pistol or AEP pistol if you have more than one-hundred dollars to invest on your airsoft pistol. These guns are normally the top-tier guns, have good performance, and can be a pretty good gun to get. Look into a CO2 pistol or less expensive GBB pistol if you have around fifty to one-hundred dollars to buy a gun. These mid-tier guns will still function well and are pretty sturdy sidearms. If you have $50 or less, try to find a cheaper CO2 or springer pistol. You can still get a sturdy airsoft handgun to use for the handgun games.
