Airsoft Pistol Type Additional Information
Find out about airsoft pistols and how you can use them as backup guns or as main weapons on the airsoft playing field. Getting the best handgun and practicing with it can make an impact in the accuracy of your shots. Handguns, naturally, are short range airsoft weapons. They are commonly made after real world handguns or reproductions of genuine pistols. A lot of airsoft pistols are fully certified reproductions of their genuine handgun counterparts. These airsoft guns can function (without shooting bullets) in the same ways and appear almost identically to the real guns they are modeled around while shooting airsoft BBs rather than real world bullets.
There are a variety of airsoft pistols consisting of CO2, propane or green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric pistols. Each of these varieties of handguns have negatives and positives related to them. Learning more about the styles of airsoft sidearms lets you figure out which type is right for you and your airsoft play style.
Details About CO2 Airsoft Sidearms
CO2 airsoft handguns are one of the most heavy-duty and common styles of handguns. They are all season guns and work well in many types of varying temperatures, weather and environments. These sidearms use high pressure CO2 gas to force airsoft BBs down the handgun barrel. The CO2 cartridge stores the gas and is generally kept in the handgun’s mag inside the handle.
These styles of airsoft handguns are great choices for airsoft games in cold weather given that the compressed CO2 gas is less vulnerable to performance decreases with temperature levels. This provides exceptional FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the wintertime for instance where other kinds of airsoft pistols like green gas cease to work or hardly shoot pellets.
Additional Info About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridge Cylinders
CO2 airsoft pistols are powered by basic 12 gram CO2 cylinders. These cartridges look similar to a metal cylinder and store high pressure CO2 gas made up of a single carbon atom and 2 oxygen atoms hence the molecular formula is “C + O2”.
They come sealed to keep the CO2 gas safely within, however once they are opened (shooting them in an airsoft handgun breaks the seal) they will start to lose pressure if they are left unused. If the airsoft games end and you still have CO2 gas left, use the chance to do some handgun target practice and use up the rest of the remaining gas.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges can be stored for a longtime. They are made with the maker’s expiry date typically listed on the box or cartridge cylinder, however they will likely last for a prolonged time past this date if the cartridge seals are not tampered with.
Green Gas Airsoft Pistol Info
Green gas airsoft handguns are comparable to CO2 pistols, however they do not use CO2 cartridges. The effect on the battleground and green gas weapon efficiency is virtually the exact same as CO2 handguns with the weapons around 300+ FPS.
The propane is stored in the pistol’s magazine which can frequently hold between 15 to 20+ airsoft BBs depending on the pistol style. A series of valves, rubberized gaskets, and o-rings keep the gas stored in the mag before the handgun’s trigger is pulled.
When using a green gas sidearm on the airsoft field or arena as a backup or primary weapon, extra magazines are advised for quickly reloading and engaging the op force. Having extra magazines on-hand allows you to re-engage in the action in the middle of firefights or while sweeping buildings in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fights.
Green gas pistols are suitable for CQB at airsoft fields considering long guns and full-sized AEGs are typically not authorized to be used for indoor shooting. This is a safety guideline due to the close quarters distance of airsoft players during the shooting engagements and potential for players to get hurt. While green gas handguns can still fire airsoft BBs at about 300 FPS, the shorter handgun barrel assists to keep the joules and energy shooting the BB at a lower level compared to airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and other long guns.
About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are two various types of green gas airsoft pistols. To start with there are green gas blowback handguns or GBBs. These handguns work like a genuine handgun with the pistol’s slide “blowing back” with every shot. The propane gas induces the slide to cycle every time a brand-new airsoft BB is loaded into the chamber. This cycling is extremely cool, however the GBB weapons usually cost more and likely have more parts to break. The green gas non-blowback airsoft handguns have a stationary slide which does not move. The non-blowback pistols normally cost less than GBBs. Efficiency is about the same when comparing the two kinds of green gas pistols.
About GBB and Green Gas Limitations
Because the green gas or propane is stored in the pistol magazine by rubber seals and gaskets, cold temps can negatively influence these gaskets and cause the stored gas to escape before shooting. The decrease in pressure can cause the airsoft BBs to just land a few feet away (like 10 feet in the cold ) when the handgun would usually shoot 6mm BBs over 100+ feet in warmer temperatures).
One fix for this challenge is to keep the GBB handgun mags warmer by holding them inside your jacket next to your body just before the game play. This can help to warm the rubber seals and better seal in the green gas. If you really desire to use a reputable airsoft pistol in the cold, it can also be better to check out a CO2 version of your preferred handgun. The CO2 cartridges come sealed and the gun will shoot far better in sub-freezing temperatures and while playing in the snow.
Spring Airsoft Sidearm Information
Spring airsoft guns are powered by strong springs that shoot the BBs out of the handgun barrel. The manual actions of firing, cocking, and reloading spring handguns makes the fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB airsoft guns.
Spring airsoft guns perform most effectively in springer wars where game players can just use related, single shot spring handguns or as a close quarters weapon for CQB buildings and MOUT sites when you can usually sneak up to other airsoft participants to get an assured one-shot-one-kill. In the latter scenario, a fast 2nd followup shot is not called for due to the fact that the other opponent is now hit by the first BB and out of the game play or moving back to respawn. When engaging a number of adversaries considering that the spring airsoft gun simply shoots as quickly as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB manually, be cautious.
About Spring Pistol Effectiveness
Spring pistols are extremely efficient under the ideal scenarios. Spring handguns can normally shoot accurately up to 120 feet or farther with 0.12g BBs but precision decreases quickly.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Pistols
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 handguns are commonly powered by mini stick batteries in the pistol’s handle. They work much like an AEG gun and use forced air forced through electrically cycled pistons, cylinders, and gearboxes to propel airsoft BBs quickly and very quickly at that.
AEG handgun mags generally hold around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The handguns can fire airsoft BBs right up to around 300 FPS using 0.12 gram 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 depends if you have enough spare magazines to reload and the battery lasts that long. These handguns can efficiently shoot airsoft BBs at about 150 foot distances.
AEG Handgun Quality and Efficiency
AEG handgun quality has risen significantly in the last few years. The first gens were a bit undependable and sketchy, however the newer designs have the deficiencies resolved and make effective airsoft backup guns. They can be improved with maximized mag capacities and also accommodating larger batteries.
A huge advantage of using an AEG pistol is that you have the power to rewire the connectors to use a bigger battery. Depending on the AEG handgun type, you can get a huge output in efficiency by taking advantage of a 2 cell Lipo battery (like an 2S Lipo) as an alternative for the stock mini battery.
What Airsoft Pistol is Right for Me?
If you have over one-hundred dollars to spend on your airsoft pistol, check out a GBB handgun or AEG handgun. If you have between fifty to one-hundred dollars to invest, look at a good quality CO2 handgun or cheaper GBB pistol. You can still look for a durable airsoft pistol by checking out lower end pistols and by shopping for used guns if you are on a budget.
