Info About Airsoft Handgun Designs
Learn about airsoft sidearms, pistols, and handguns and how you can use them as backup weapons or as core weapons on the airsoft playing field. A lot of airsoft pistols are fully accredited models of their real weapon equivalents and look and function in the exact same ways while shooting airsoft BBs instead of authentic bullets.
There are a variety of airsoft sidearms consisting of CO2, green gas or propane (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric sidearms. Each of these styles of sidearms have benefits and differences related to them. Finding out about the types of airsoft sidearms allows you to decide which type is right for you and your airsoft gameplay style.
CO2 Airsoft Sidearm Details
CO2 airsoft sidearms are one of the most common and heavy duty types of handguns. These pistols use high pressure CO2 gas to send airsoft BBs out of the weapon barrel.
These forms of airsoft weapons are great choices for airsoft games in cooler temperatures due to the fact that the high pressure CO2 gas is stored in the sealed cylinders and less susceptible to FPS decreases by low temperatures. This gives CO2 airsoft sidearms great FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the winter season for instance where other sorts of airsoft pistols like green gas cease to operate or barely shoot pellets.
Additional Info About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cylinders
CO2 airsoft pistols are powered by typical 12 gram CO2 cartridge cylinders. These cartridges resemble a shiny metallic cylinder and contain high-pressure CO2 gas comprised of just one carbon atom and a pair of oxygen atoms thus the molecular formula of “C + O2”.
The CO2 cylinders cannot be refilled and you can commonly order them in packs of 12, 20, 50, or 100 12 gram CO2 cartridges. They come sealed to retain the CO2 gas safely and securely within, once they are opened (firing them inside of an airsoft pistol breaks the cartridge seal) the cartridges will begin to lose pressure if they are not used up. You must try to expend the entire CO2 cartridge the same day you open the seal. If the airsoft matches end and you still have CO2 gas leftover, use the chance to do some pistol target practice and use up the remainder of the additional gas. There is no gas level indication on the cartridge so you need to shoot up until the weapon stops shooting.
CO2 cartridges have a long storage life if the cylinders are stored sealed. They are made with the manufacturer’s expiry date usually printed on the package or cylinder, but they may maintain pressure for a long period of time past this date if the cartridge seals are not tampered with.
Green Gas Airsoft Handguns
Green gas airsoft handguns are comparable to CO2 pistols, however they use propane gas instead of CO2 cartridges. The impact on the battlefield and green gas weapon performance is virtually the very same as CO2 pistols with the weapons at about 300+ FPS.
The green gas is held in the pistol’s magazine and can often hold between 15 to 20+ 6mm airsoft BBs depending upon the gun style. A set of valves, rubberized stoppers, and seals keep the green gas stored in the mag up to when the pistol’s trigger is pulled. It is a great habit to top off and refill the propane reserves in the mag each time you load it into the pistol. Pistol-wielding players can also take additional bottles of propane in the field for reloading mags between breaks in the war or in-between activities.
When using a green gas pistol on the airsoft field as a secondary or main weapon, additional pistol mags are advised for rapidly reloading and getting back into the game. Having extra magazines on-hand helps you reengage in the action during firefights or while clearing buildings in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fighting.
Green gas pistols are suitable for CQB at airsoft fields considering rifles and full-sized AEGs are normally not allowed to be used during indoor game play. This is an essential safety standard due to the close range distance of airsoft players during the shooting engagements. While green gas handguns still shoot airsoft BBs at around 300 FPS, the shorter pistol barrel helps to keep the joules and energy sending the BB at a decreased level compared to AEGs, airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and other long guns.
About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are 2 various forms of green gas airsoft pistols. First, there are green gas blowback handguns or GBBs. These handguns work like a real handgun with the pistol slide “blowing back” and moving with every shot. Every time a brand-new airsoft BB is loaded into the chamber, the gas triggers the slide to cycle. This functioning while shooting is really cool, but the weapons typically are more expensive and potentially have more that can break. The green gas non-blowback airsoft pistols use a stationary slide which does not cycle. The non-blowback guns normally cost less than GBBs. Performance is around the same between the two varieties of green gas pistols.
About GBB and Green Gas Limits
Since the green gas or propane is kept in the handgun magazine using rubber seals and silicone gaskets, cold weather can negatively influence these seals and allow the stored gas to escape prior to shooting the handgun. This can cause the airsoft BBs to merely shoot a number of feet away (like 10 feet in cold weather ) when the green gas handgun would usually shoot BBs over 100+ foot distances in warmer weather).
One option to fix this challenge is to try to keep the GBB pistol magazines warmer by positioning them inside your jacket next to your body prior to airsoft game play. This can help to warm up the seals, gaskets, and valves and help to seal in the green gas. It can also be worth getting a CO2 variation of your favorite pistol if you really want to play airsoft with a trustworthy airsoft pistol in the cold. The CO2 cylinders come sealed and the gun will shoot far better in sub-freezing temperatures and while playing in the snow.
About Spring Airsoft Handguns
Spring airsoft guns are powered by powerful springs that shoot the BBs out of the pistol’s barrel. The manual functions of reloading, cocking, and firing spring guns makes the fire rate much slower than CO2 and GBB pistols.
Spring handguns perform the best in springer wars where participants can exclusively use comparable, single shot spring handguns or as a transition weapon for CQB buildings when you can usually sneak up to other airsoft participants to get an assured one-shot-one-kill. In the latter case, a quick second follow-up shot isn’t 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 several foes because the springer simply fires as fast as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB by hand, be cautious.
About Spring Pistol Effectiveness
Spring pistols are really effective under the best conditions during games. Their FPS usually chronos at around 250 FPS to 300 FPS with 0.12 gram airsoft BBs. These pistols normally fire lighter weight airsoft BBs because the pitched springs are less powerful than other types of airsoft weapons. Spring handguns can typically be accurate at up to 120 feet or more with 0.12 gram BBs but accuracy reduces rapidly. Choosing regular 0.20 gram weight airsoft BBs, you will probably have a decreased shooting distance of around 60 to 80 feet or less with enhanced precision.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Handgun Info
AEG airsoft sidearms or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are definitely a viable option to use as a sidearm on the airsoft field. These automatic electric pistols are often powered by mini stick batteries in the weapon’s butt. They function similar to an AEG rifle and use forced air forced through electrically cycled pistons, cylinders, and gearboxes to propel airsoft BBs quickly and very quickly at that.
AEG handgun magazines typically carry about 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The handguns can fire airsoft BBs up to about 300 FPS using 0.12 gram airsoft BBs or 200 to 250 FPS using 0.20 gram airsoft BBs.
AEG Handgun Quality and Efficiency
AEG pistol quality has risen substantially in the last few years. The earliest gen AEP guns were a bit questionable and unreliable, however the more recent models have the problems worked out and make effective airsoft secondary weapons. They can be further modded with maximized mag storage capacities together with accommodating larger batteries.
A large benefit of carrying an AEG pistol is that you have the ability to rewire the connections to use a bigger battery. Based on the AEG handgun version, you are able to gain a substantial boost in functionality by utilizing a 2 cell Lipo battery (like an 2S Lipo) as a replacement for the standard mini battery. Take care of modifying the elements and the gun’s wires because you have to consider the volts, mAh, and electrical loads of the batteries. Ask an expert airsoft gun tech at your local airsoft store or shop if you have customization inquiries.
What Airsoft Sidearm is Best for Me to Play with?
Deciding on the best airsoft pistol for you depends on your gun budget, how much you want to play airsoft with it, and where you hope to play. If you have at least one-hundred dollars to spend on your airsoft handgun, look into a green gas handgun or AEG handgun. These kinds of guns are normally the top of the line, have the very best build qualities, and are usually a great investment. Check out a CO2 pistol or less costly green gas GBB pistol if you have about $50 to $100 to spend. These will still be fun to play with and will be pretty long lasting sidearms. If you have $50 or less, research a cheap CO2 or springer pistol. You can still buy a sturdy airsoft handgun to use for the handgun games.
