How to Pick an Airsoft Pistol
Learn more about airsoft pistols and how you can use them as backup guns or as primary weapons on the airsoft playing field. Getting the right pistol and practicing with it can make an impact in the accuracy of your shots. Handguns, by nature, are much shorter range airsoft guns. They are generally crafted after real world pistols or clones of actual handguns. Quite a few airsoft sidearms are fully licensed variations of their genuine firearm equivalents. These airsoft guns can function in the same ways and look and feel similarly to the real guns they are modeled after while blasting airsoft BBs rather than actual bullets.
There are a few kinds of airsoft handguns including CO2, propane or green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric handguns. Each of these kinds of handguns have benefits and differences related to them. Learning more about the varieties of airsoft sidearms helps you figure out which type is right for you and your airsoft play style.
CO2 Airsoft Handgun Details
CO2 airsoft sidearms are one of the most long-lasting and popular types of sidearms. These pistols use pressurized CO2 gas to move airsoft BBs out of the gun barrel.
These forms of airsoft handguns are good for playing airsoft in cold weather conditions since the high pressure CO2 gas is stored in the sealed cylinders and less vulnerable to FPS decreases with low temperature. This fact provides excellent FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the winter months for instance where other kinds of airsoft guns like green gas stuffer from low performance or barely shoot BBs.
Info About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridges
CO2 airsoft handguns are powered by typical 12 gram CO2 cartridge cylinders. These cartridges look like a metallic cylinder and contain high-pressure CO2 gas comprised of a single carbon atom and two oxygen atoms hence the molecular formula is “C + O2”.
The CO2 cartridges are not refillable and you can commonly buy them in bundles of 12, 20, 50, or 100 12 gram CO2 cartridges. They come sealed to retain the CO2 gas securely within, but once they are punctured (shooting them in an airsoft gun breaks the cartridge seal) the cartridges will start to lose pressure if they are not expended. You must attempt to burn up the whole CO2 cartridge the same day you open the seal. If the airsoft games end and you still have CO2 gas left, use the opportunity to do some pistol accuracy and target practice and consume the remaining excess gas. There is no gas level sign on the cartridge so you have to shoot up until the pistol stops firing.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges have a long storage life. They are made with the supplier’s best used by date usually marked on the box or cylinder, but they may survive for a long period past this date if the cartridge seal is not damaged.
Info About Green Gas Airsoft Handguns
Green gas airsoft pistols are similar to CO2 guns, however they do not use CO2 cartridges. Instead, they use green gas or propane for propellant to propel 6mm airsoft BBs. The effect on the airsoft battlefield and green gas handgun efficiency is virtually the same as CO2 pistols with the guns shooting up to 300+ feet per second (FPS). Shots are efficiently fired in semi-automatic or automatic shooting modes and can accurately hit targets at shorter to mid-range ranges.
The propane is kept in the pistol’s magazine which can usually hold in-between 15 to 20+ BBs depending on the pistol design. A series of valves, rubber gaskets, and o-rings keep the gas pressurized in the magazine till the pistol’s trigger is pulled.
When bringing a green gas handgun on the airsoft field as a primary or secondary weapon, bringing additional handgun mags is strongly recommended for quickly reloading. Having extra magazines on-hand allows you to re engage in the action during firefights or while clearing buildings in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fighting.
Green gas handguns are great for CQB at airsoft fields since rifles and full-sized AEGs are normally not permitted to be used for indoor engagements. This is an essential safety standard because of the close quarters proximity of airsoft players during shooting engagements and the potential for players to be injured. While green gas handguns can still shoot airsoft BBs at about 300 FPS, the shorter pistol barrel helps to keep the joules and energy propelling the BB at a decreased 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 different forms of green gas airsoft handguns. There are green gas blowback handguns or GBBs. These pistols function like an actual pistol with the slide “blowing back” and cycling with every shot. When a fresh airsoft BB is chambered, the gas triggers the slide to cycle. This effect is really cool, but the handguns typically cost more and possibly have more parts to break. The green gas non-blowback airsoft handguns use a stationary slide which does not cycle. The non-blowback weapons commonly cost less than GBBs. Performance is about the same between the two varieties of green gas handguns.
About GBB and Green Gas Issues
While green gas normally can be used effectively on the airsoft field, it does have drawbacks. When they are used throughout the winter season in the snow or in cold temperatures (such as under 32 degrees F). Since the green gas or propane is held in the weapon’s mag using silicone seals, o-rings, and gaskets, low temperatures can negatively impact the seals and cause the stored gas to seep out before firing the pistol. The decrease in pressure can cause the airsoft BBs to only shoot several feet (like 10 feet in cold temps ) when the gun would normally shoot airsoft BBs over 100+ foot ranges in warmer temperatures).
One fix for this issue is to try to keep the GBB handgun magazines warmer by positioning them next to a heater or by your body just before the airsoft game play. This can help to warm up the seals, gaskets, and valves and better seal in the green gas. If you definitely desire to play with a dependable airsoft pistol in the cold, it can also be better to get a CO2 variation of your preferred handgun. The CO2 cartridges come sealed and the gun shoots far better in sub-freezing conditions and while playing in the snow.
Spring Airsoft Handguns
Spring airsoft guns are powered by powerful coil springs that fire the BBs out of the gun barrel. The manual functions of shooting, cocking, and reloading spring pistols makes the fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB handguns.
Spring pistols perform the best in springer wars where players can only use similar, single shot spring handguns or as a close quarters combat backup gun for CQB settings when you can frequently sneak up to other airsoft opponents to get a guaranteed one-shot-one-kill. In the latter circumstance, a quick 2nd follow-up shot is not needed considering that the other opponent is now hit by the first BB and out of the gameplay or going back to respawn. Look out when fighting many different players due to the fact that the spring gun only shoots as quickly as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB by hand.
About Spring Pistol Effectiveness
Spring guns are remarkably useful under the appropriate scenarios and airsoft games. Their FPS often chronos at about 250 FPS to 300 FPS with lighter 0.12 gram airsoft BBs. These guns typically fire the lighter weight airsoft BBs since the coiled springs are less powerful than other kinds of airsoft guns like SMGs. Spring guns can typically engage targets at ranges of up to 120 feet or more with 0.12g BBs but the ability to engage targets accurately decreases rapidly. Shooting conventional 0.20g weight airsoft BBs, you will probably have a decreased shooting distance of around 60 to 80 feet or less with heightened precision.
Info on AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Pistols
AEG airsoft sidearms or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are also a viable option to use as a backup weapon on the airsoft field. These automatic electric pistols are often powered by mini stick batteries in the pistol’s handle. They function just like an AEG gun and use pressured air forced through electrically cycled cylinders and gearboxes to propel airsoft BBs out of the barrel and very rapidly at that.
AEG handgun magazines generally can carry about 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The handguns can launch airsoft BBs up to around 300 FPS with 0.12 gram airsoft BBs or 200 to 250 FPS using 0.20g airsoft BBs.
AEG Pistol Quality and Efficiency
AEG pistol quality has actually grown considerably in the last few years. The early generation guns were a bit questionable and unreliable, however the newer models have the issues worked out and make effective airsoft backup guns. They can be upgraded with increased magazine capacities and also accommodating bigger batteries.
A large advantage of carrying an AEG pistol is that you have the ability to rewire the connectors to use a more substantial battery. Depending on the AEG handgun type, you can gain a huge jump in performance by taking advantage of a 2 cell Lipo battery (2S Lipo) as a replacement for the stock AEP battery.
Which Airsoft Handgun is Best for Me?
Picking the right airsoft sidearm for you depends on how much you want to spend, how often you would like to play airsoft with it, and where you decide to play. Look at a GBB green gas pistol or AEG pistol if you have over one-hundred dollars to invest on your airsoft pistol. These are normally the best of the best, have great build qualities, and could be a good handgun to purchase. If you have around more than $50 but less than $100 to spend, take a look at a CO2 pistol or cheaper GBB handgun. These will still be fun to play with and are long lasting sidearms. If you have less than fifty dollars, try to find a cheap CO2 or spring handgun. You can still buy a durable airsoft handgun to use for the pistol airsoft guns.
