Airsoft Handgun Design Additional Information
Learn about airsoft sidearms and handguns and how you can use them as backup weapons or as primary weapons on the airsoft playing field. Getting the best handgun and practicing with it can make an impact in improving your shots. Pistols, naturally, are lower range airsoft weapons. They are quite often fashioned after real pistols or models of genuine pistols. Many different airsoft sidearms are fully certified editions of their genuine handgun counterparts. These airsoft guns can function (sans shooting bullets) in the same ways and visually appear almost identically to the real guns they are designed after while shooting airsoft BBs as opposed to real world bullets.
There are a variety of airsoft pistols consisting of CO2, green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric handguns. Each of these types of sidearms have positives and negatives connected with them. Finding out about the types of airsoft pistols helps you choose which type is right for you and your airsoft gameplay style.
Details About CO2 Airsoft Pistols
CO2 airsoft sidearms are one of the most common and dependable types of handguns. These pistols use sealed CO2 gas cylinders to move airsoft BBs out of the handgun barrel.
These types of airsoft guns are very good for playing airsoft in cold weather since the high pressure CO2 gas is less susceptible to performance variations by low temperature. This gives CO2 airsoft sidearms exceptional FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the cold for instance where other types of airsoft sidearms like green gas stuffer from low performance or barely fire BBs.
Info About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cylinders
CO2 airsoft pistols are powered by common 12 gram CO2 cartridges. These cartridges look similar to a metal cylinder and store high pressure CO2 gas made up of just one carbon atom and a pair of oxygen atoms, as a result of the molecular formula comes out to be “C + O2 “. These atoms are connected in the following alignment “O= C =O”. The gas is stored in the 12 gram cartridges under very high pressure of approximately ~ 800psi that translates to 55bar.
They come sealed to keep the CO2 gas safely inside, however once they are opened (firing them inside of an airsoft handgun breaks the seal) they will begin to lose pressure if they are left unused. If the airsoft matches end and you still have CO2 gas left, use the opportunity to do some handgun target practice and use up the rest of the additional gas.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges have a long storage life. They have the supplier’s expiry date normally noted on the box or cartridge, however they may stay pressurized for a long time past this date if the cartridge seal is not broken.
Green Gas and Propane Airsoft Sidearm Details
Green gas airsoft pistols are similar to CO2 handguns, but they do not use CO2 cartridges. The operational impact on the battlefield and green gas weapon performance is virtually the exact same as CO2 handguns with the weapons at about 300+ FPS.
The green gas is kept in the pistol’s mag that can normally hold between 15 to 20+ airsoft BBs based on the pistol design. A series of valves, rubber gaskets, and silicone o-rings keep the gas stored in the magazine till the pistol’s trigger is pulled.
When using a green gas handgun on the airsoft field or arena as a backup or primary gun, extra handgun mags are strongly recommended for rapidly reloading. Having additional mags helps you reengage in the action throughout firefights or while sweeping buildings in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fighting.
Green gas handguns are great for CQB at airsoft fields considering that rifles, long guns, and full-sized AEGs are usually not permitted to be used during indoor gameplay. This is a safety standard because of the close range distance of players during the shooting engagements and potential for players to get hurt. While green gas pistols can still fire airsoft BBs at about 300 FPS, the short handgun barrel aids to keep the joules and energy sending the BB at a decreased level compared to AEGs, airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and long guns.
About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are two different kinds of green gas airsoft handguns. To start with there are green gas blowback pistols or GBBs. These guns work like an authentic pistol with the pistol’s slide “blowing back” and moving with every shot. The gas induces the slide to cycle when a brand-new airsoft BB is loaded into the chamber. The result is extremely cool, but the GBB weapons often cost more and potentially have more parts which can break. The green gas non-blowback airsoft pistols have a fixed slide which does not cycle. The non-blowback weapons commonly cost less than GBBs. Performance is about the same when comparing the two varieties of green gas pistols.
About GBB and Green Gas Limits
While green gas normally works very well on the airsoft field, it does have issues. When green gas and GBB guns are used in the winter in the snow or in colder weather (like under 32 deg F). Given that the green gas or propane gas is kept in the magazine using rubber seals and gaskets, the cold can negatively affect these seals and cause the stored gas to escape before firing the pistol. The decrease in pressure can make the airsoft BBs to merely shoot several feet (like 10 feet in cold temps ) when the gun would ordinarily shoot BBs over 100+ foot ranges in warmer temperatures).
One strategy to this issue is to keep the GBB pistol mags warmer by holding them next to your body, beside a heater, or inside your jacket just before the airsoft game play starts. If you really desire to play with a dependable airsoft handgun in the cold, it might additionally be worth getting a CO2 variation of your favorite handgun.
Spring Airsoft Sidearm Information
Spring airsoft guns are powered by powerful springs with irregular pitches that propel the BBs out of the gun barrel. They are generally able to only shoot one BB at a time. The manual actions of reloading, firing, and cocking spring handguns makes the fire rate much slower than CO2 and GBB pistols. This makes spring guns entertaining to use, however they are less effective when running into adversaries on the airsoft field with upgraded rifles, automatic airsoft AEG rifles, SMGs, sniper rifles, and CO2 or GBB airsoft pistols.
Spring sidearms work best in springer wars where opponents can solely use comparable, single shot spring guns or as a transitional weapon for CQB environments when you can often quietly sneak up on other airsoft opponents to get a guaranteed one-shot-one-kill. In the latter situation, a fast 2nd followup shot isn’t really needed since the other opponent is already hit by the airsoft BB and out of the gameplay or going back to respawn. When engaging multiple enemies given that the weapon just shoots as quick as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB manually, be cautious.
About Spring Handgun Efficiency
Spring handguns are remarkably effective under the right scenarios and airsoft games. Spring guns like pistols can often shoot accurately up to 120 feet or farther with 0.12 gram BBs but accuracy reduces quickly.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Handguns
AEG airsoft handguns or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are definitely a good choice to carry as a backup gun on the airsoft field. These automatic electric handguns are often powered by mini stick batteries in the weapon’s butt. They work just like an AEG gun and use compressed air forced through electrically cycled cylinders, pistons, and gearboxes to shoot airsoft BBs quickly and rapidly.
AEG pistol mags normally can carry about 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The pistols can launch airsoft BBs up to about 300 FPS with 0.12g airsoft BBs or 200 to 250 FPS using 0.20 gram airsoft BBs.
AEG Handgun Quality and Efficiency
AEG handgun quality has actually increased substantially in the last few years. The initial generation AEP guns were a little bit questionable and unreliable, however the new versions have the issues worked out and make efficient airsoft secondary weapons. They can be modded with maximized magazine capacities along with accommodating bigger batteries.
A massive benefit of carrying an AEG handgun is that you have the ability to rewire the connectors to use a bigger battery. Depending on the AEG pistol design, you can get a substantial increase in efficiency by adopting a two cell Lipo battery (like an 2S Lipo) as a replacement for the stock battery.
What Airsoft Handgun is Best for Me to Play with?
Finding the right airsoft sidearm for you depends on how much you can afford, how much you desire to play airsoft using it, and where you plan to play. If you can afford over $100 to spend on your airsoft pistol, check out a green gas handgun or AEG pistol. These guns are usually the top of the line, have the very best performance, and could be a great gun to invest in. If you have around more than $50 but less than $100 to use for your gun, have a look at a CO2 handgun or a 2nd-tier GBB pistol. These mid-tier guns will still do the job and are long lasting sidearms. If you have less than $50, search for a low end CO2 or spring handgun. You can still get a well-built airsoft pistol to use for the handgun games.
