Airsoft Handgun Design Information
Find out about airsoft handguns and how you can use them as backup weapons or as primary weapons on the airsoft playing field. Practicing your shot accuracy and getting the ideal pistol can make all the difference in improving your shots. Sidearms, naturally, are much shorter range airsoft weapons. They are generally created after real guns or replications of genuine handguns. Quite a few airsoft pistols are completely licensed variations of their real world handgun counterparts. These airsoft guns can function (without shooting bullets) in the same ways and appear identical to the real guns they are designed after while shooting airsoft BBs rather than real-world bullets.
There are a variety of airsoft pistols such as CO2, green gas or propane (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric gun pistols. Each of these types of pistols come with positives and negatives related to them. Learning more about the kinds of airsoft pistols allows you to make a decision on which type is right for you and your airsoft game play style.
CO2 Airsoft Pistol Details
CO2 airsoft pistols are one of the most standard and long-lasting kinds of pistols. They are all-season, all-weather weapons and operate well in lots of kinds of weather and climates. These sidearms use pressurized CO2 gas to send airsoft BBs down the handgun barrel. The CO2 cartridge stores the gas within the cylinder and is usually located in the gun’s magazine inside the handle.
These forms of airsoft guns are good for airsoft games in cooler weather conditions since the high pressure CO2 gas is stored in the sealed cylinders and less prone to performance decreases by low temperatures. This provides exceptional FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the winter for example where other varieties of handguns like green gas stuffer from low performance or hardly fire pellets.
Info About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridges
CO2 airsoft sidearms are powered by conventional 12 gram CO2 cartridges. These cartridges look like a metallic cylinder and hold high-pressure CO2 gas composed of 1 carbon atom and a pair of oxygen atoms for this reason the molecular formula is “C + O2”.
The cartridges come sealed to keep the CO2 gas safely within, however when they are opened (firing them inside of an airsoft weapon breaks the cartridge 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 pistol target practice and use up the rest of the excess gas.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges can be stored for a longtime. They are made with the maker’s use by date typically listed on the package or cartridge cylinder, but they will likely maintain pressure for a very long time past this date if the cartridge seals are not punctured.
Green Gas and Propane Airsoft Sidearm Details
Green gas airsoft handguns function similarly to CO2 handguns, but they do not use CO2 cartridges. Alternatively, they use green gas or propane gas for propellant to fire the airsoft BBs. The impact on gameplay and green gas pistol efficiency is basically the same as CO2 handguns with the weapons shooting up to 300+ feet per second. Shots are quickly fired in semi-automatic or automatic firing modes and can hit targets at shorter to mid-range ranges.
The green gas is housed in the handgun’s magazine which can commonly hold between 15 to 20+ airsoft BBs based on the handgun model. A series of valves, rubber gaskets, and o-rings keep the propane sealed in the mag till the pistol’s trigger is squeezed. It is a good choice to fill up and top off your green gas supply in the pistol mag each time you load it into the pistol. Pistol-wielding airsoft players can additionally carry supplemental bottles of green gas in the field for refilling magazines between lulls in the war or in-between activities.
When using a green gas pistol on the airsoft field or arena as a backup or main gun, extra mags are strongly recommended for quickly reloading and engaging opponents. Having additional magazines allows you to re engage in the action during firefights or while clearing structures in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room battles.
Green gas pistols are ideal for CQB at airsoft fields considering rifles, long guns, and full-sized AEGs are generally not approved to be used for indoor game play. This is an essential safety rule because of the close range proximity of airsoft players during shooting engagements and the potential for players to be injured. While green gas handguns can still fire airsoft BBs at around 300 FPS, the short handgun barrel aids to keep the joules and energy forcing the BB at a decreased level compared to AEG airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and long guns.
About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are 2 various styles of green gas airsoft pistols. First, there are green gas blowback pistols or GBBs. These pistols work like an actual pistol with the slide “blowing back” with every shot. Each time a fresh airsoft BB is loaded into the chamber, the gas induces the slide to cycle. The result is extremely cool, but the weapons frequently cost more and potentially have more parts which can break. The green gas non-blowback airsoft pistols have a fixed slide which does not move. The non-blowback handguns typically cost less than GBBs. Efficiency is about the same between the two varieties of green gas pistols.
About GBB and Green Gas Limitations
Due to the fact that the green gas or propane is stored in the mag by rubber seals, o-rings, and silicone gaskets, cold temperatures can negatively affect these seals and cause the stored gas to leak out prior to shooting the pistol. The lack of pressure can cause the airsoft BBs to only shoot a few feet (like 10 feet in the cold ) when the green gas pistol would usually shoot 6mm BBs over 100+ foot distances in warmer temperatures).
One fix for this problem is to make the GBB pistol mags warmer by positioning them next to your body prior to game play. This can help to warm up the seals and help to seal in the green gas. It might also be worth checking out a CO2 variation of your favorite pistol if you actually need to play with a reliable airsoft handgun in the cold. The CO2 cartridges come sealed and the gun shoots far better in sub-freezing conditions and while playing in the snow.
Facts About Spring Airsoft Pistols
Spring airsoft handguns are powered by powerful coil springs that fire the airsoft BBs out of the pistol barrel. They are typically only able to shoot one BB. The manual action of cocking, reloading, and firing spring airsoft guns makes the weapon’s fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB pistols. When taking on enemies on the airsoft field with upgraded weapons and fully automatic airsoft AEG assault rifles and CO2, green gas, or GBB airsoft handguns, this can make spring airsoft guns enjoyable to use, however less efficient.
Spring airsoft guns perform most effectively in springer wars where opponents can solely use related, single shot spring handguns or as a close quarters combat backup gun for CQB environments when you can frequently quietly sneak up on other airsoft game players to get an assured one-shot-one-kill. In the latter circumstance, a quick second followup shot will not be needed because the other person is now hit by the first shot and out of the game play or headed back to respawn. Take care when fighting several adversaries due to the fact that the spring weapon just fires as quick as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB manually.
About Spring Handgun Effectiveness
Spring guns are remarkably efficient under the right situations. Their FPS normally chronos at about 250 FPS to 300 FPS with lighter weight 0.12 gram airsoft BBs. These pistols normally fire lighter weight airsoft BBs since the coiled springs are less powerful than other kinds of airsoft guns like rifles. Spring pistols can generally be accurate at up to 120 feet or more with 0.12 gram BBs but the ability to hit targets decreases rapidly. Shooting normal 0.20g weight airsoft BBs, you will very likely have a reduced range of around 60 to 80 feet or less with heightened target accuracy.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Sidearm Info
AEG airsoft sidearms or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are definitely a viable option to carry as a backup weapon 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 SMG and use pressured air pumped through electrically cycled pistons and cylinders to fire airsoft BBs out of the barrel and very quickly at that.
AEG handgun magazines generally carry about 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The pistols can fire airsoft BBs up to around 300 FPS with 0.12 gram airsoft BBs or 200 to 250 FPS with 0.20g airsoft BBs.
AEG Pistol Quality and Efficiency
AEG handgun quality has increased considerably in the last few years. The initial generation AEP guns were a little bit questionable and unreliable, but the newer versions have the problems worked out and make reliable airsoft backup guns. They can be upgraded with maximized mag storage capacities and by accommodating more powerful batteries.
A big benefit of using an AEG handgun is that you have the capacity to rewire the wires to use a larger battery. Based on the AEG handgun design, you are able to gain a sizable output in performance using a two cell Lipo battery (2S Lipo) in place of the standard mini battery. Take care of modifying the elements and wires since you have to think about the volts, mAh, and loads of the batteries. If you have modding concerns, ask an experienced airsoft technician at your local airsoft store.
Which Airsoft Pistol is Right for Me to Play with?
Looking for the ideal airsoft pistol for you depends on your budget, how often you would like to play airsoft with it, and where you decide to play. If you can afford at least $100 to spend on your airsoft pistol, consider a green gas blowback handgun or AEP handgun. These guns are usually the best of the best, have the most effective build qualities, and can be a pretty good airsoft gun to invest in. Take a look at a CO2 pistol or cheaper green gas GBB pistol if you have around $50 to $100 to invest. These will still get the job done and are pretty resilient sidearms. If you have fifty dollars or less, consider a cheap CO2 or spring handgun. You can still find a tough airsoft pistol to use for the pistol games.
