How to Choose an Airsoft Handgun
Learn more about airsoft pistols and sidearms 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 be a game changer in the accuracy of your shots. Handguns, naturally, are much shorter range airsoft weapons. They are usually created after actual pistols or miniatures of authentic handguns. Many airsoft pistols are completely licensed variations of their real pistol equivalents. These airsoft guns can visually look and function (short of shooting bullets) in the same ways identical to the real guns they are designed after while blasting airsoft BBs as opposed to real 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 gun pistols. Each of these kinds of sidearms have positives and negatives related to them. Finding out about the types of airsoft pistols allows you to decide which type is right for you and your airsoft play style.
Details About CO2 Airsoft Sidearms
CO2 airsoft guns are one of the most heavy duty and typical types of sidearms. These pistols use pressurized CO2 gas to send airsoft BBs out of the handgun barrel.
These styles of airsoft weapons are excellent for airsoft games in cold and snowy weather conditions considering that the compressed CO2 gas is stored in the sealed cylinders and less sensitive to FPS decreases by temperature levels. This gives CO2 airsoft handguns very good FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the winter season for example where other styles of airsoft sidearms like green gas stop performing or barely shoot airsoft BBs.
About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridges
CO2 airsoft guns are powered by conventional 12 gram CO2 cartridge cylinders. These cartridges look like a metallic cylinder and hold high pressure CO2 gas consisting of one carbon atom and 2 oxygen atoms, hence the molecular formula is “C + O2 “. These atoms are bound in the following order “O= C =O”. The gas is held in the 12 gram cylinders under extremely high pressure of around ~ 800psi which translates to 55bar.
They come sealed to keep the CO2 gas safely within, but soon after they are opened (shooting them inside of an airsoft weapon 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 opportunity to do some pistol 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 have the maker’s expiry date typically printed on the box or cartridge cylinder, however, they will likely stay pressurized for an extended time past this date if the cartridge seal is not damaged.
Green Gas Airsoft Sidearms
Green gas airsoft handguns are comparable to CO2 handguns, however they use green gas instead of CO2 cartridges. The result on the battleground and green gas weapon efficiency is practically the exact same as CO2 pistols with the guns shooting up to 300+ FPS.
The green gas is sealed in the handgun’s mag and can frequently hold roughly 15 to 20+ BBs depending upon the handgun model. A series of valves, rubber stoppers, and o-rings keep the propane gas stored in the magazine prior to when the pistol’s trigger is squeezed. It is a good habit to fill up and top off your propane supply in the mag each time you load it into the gun. Pistol-wielding airsoft players can even take additional bottles of green gas in the field for reloading mags between breaks in the war or between activities.
When bringing a green gas pistol on the airsoft field or arena as a primary or secondary gun, bringing additional handgun mags is suggested for quickly reloading and getting back into the game. Having additional magazines helps you re-engage in the action in the course 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 since long guns and full-sized AEGs are usually not enabled to be used during indoor gameplay. This is an essential safety rule because of the close range distance of gamers during the shooting engagements and the potential for players to be hurt. While green gas handguns can 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 handguns. There are green gas blowback handguns or GBBs. The green gas non-blowback airsoft handguns use a stationary slide which does not move.
About GBB and Green Gas Limits
Because the green gas or propane gas is stored in the magazine by using rubber o-rings, seals, and silicone gaskets, cold temps can negatively influence these o-rings and cause the stored gas to leak out before shooting. The decrease in pressure can cause the airsoft BBs to simply shoot a few feet (like 10 feet in cold temps ) when the pistol would typically shoot 6mm BBs over 100+ feet in warmer weather).
One option to fix this problem is to make the GBB handgun mags warmer by placing them close to your body prior to airsoft game play. This can help to warm the seals and better seal in the green gas. It may also be worth checking out a CO2 variation of your favorite handgun if you actually need to play with a reputable airsoft handgun in the cold. The CO2 cartridges come sealed and the gun shoots better in sub-freezing temperatures and while playing in the snow.
Spring Airsoft Handgun Info
Spring airsoft pistols are powered by powerful springs that propel the airsoft BBs out of the handgun barrel. They are usually only able to shoot one BB. The manual functioning of cocking, reloading, and firing spring pistols makes the weapon’s fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB handguns. This makes spring guns enjoyable to use, yet they can be less effective when encountering foes on the airsoft field with advanced weaponry, auto airsoft AEG assault rifles and CO2 or GBB airsoft handguns.
Spring pistols work best in springer battles where participants can only use comparable, single shot spring weapons or as a transition backup weapon for CQB settings when you can usually quietly sneak up on other airsoft opponents to get an assured one-shot-one-kill. In the latter scenario, a fast 2nd followup shot is not needed considering that the other opponent is already hit and out of the gameplay or heading back to respawn. When engaging many different attackers considering that the weapon just shoots as fast as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB manually, be careful.
About Spring Handgun Efficiency
Spring pistols are incredibly effective under the best conditions during airsoft games. Their FPS usually chronos at about 250 FPS to 300 FPS with lighter 0.12 gram airsoft BBs. These weapons typically fire lighter weight airsoft BBs due to the fact that the springs are less effective than other styles of airsoft weapons. Spring handguns can generally shoot up to 120 feet or more with 0.12g BBs but the ability to hit targets decreases quickly. Using conventional 0.20 gram weight airsoft BBs, you will very likely have a shooting distance of about 60 to 80 feet or less with enhanced target accuracy.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Handgun Information
AEG airsoft handguns or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are also an option to bring as a sidearm on the airsoft field. These automatic electric handguns are commonly powered by mini stick batteries in the weapon’s butt. They function just like an AEG SMG and use pressured air with electrically cycled pistons and gearboxes to shoot airsoft BBs out of the barrel and rapidly.
AEG pistol magazines usually can hold about 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The pistols can shoot airsoft BBs as high as about 300 FPS using 0.12g airsoft BBs or about 200 to 250 FPS using 0.20g airsoft BBs. The electric battery powered gearbox system can shoot around 700+ BBs per minute which depends if you have enough spare mags to reload (after every 20 to 30 shots) and the battery holds out that long. These AEP pistols can precisely shoot airsoft BBs at around 150 foot ranges.
AEG Handgun Quality and Performance
AEG pistol quality has actually risen substantially in recent years. The first generation guns were a bit undependable and questionable, but the more recent models have the bugs resolved and make reliable airsoft secondary guns. They can be further modded with maximized magazine storage capacities and also accommodating bigger batteries.
A significant advantage of carrying an AEG pistol is that you have the capability to rewire the battery connectors to use a larger battery. Depending on the AEG handgun design, you can get a substantial jump in functionality by adopting a 2 cell Lipo battery (like an 2S Lipo) rather than the stock mini battery.
What Airsoft Pistol is Best for Me to Play with?
Finding the most ideal airsoft handgun for you depends upon how much you can afford, how often you want to play airsoft using it, and where you plan to play. Take a look at a GBB green gas pistol or automatic electric AEP handgun if you have more than $100 to invest on your airsoft handgun. These kinds of handguns are typically the top-tier guns, have the greatest build qualities, and could be a really good airsoft gun to invest in. If you can afford about more than $50 but less than $100 to use for your gun, look into a CO2 pistol or more affordable green gas handgun. These guns will still function well and will be sturdy sidearms. Look for a lower end CO2 or spring handgun if you have fifty dollars or less. You can still find a long lasting airsoft pistol to use for the handgun airsoft guns.
