How to Choose an Airsoft Handgun
Learn more about airsoft pistols and sidearms and how you can use them as backup guns or as primary weapons on the airsoft playing field. Getting the best sidearm and practicing with it can make a big difference in aiming your shots. Sidearms, naturally, are lower range airsoft guns. They are often made after real-world pistols or miniatures of actual pistols. A large number of airsoft handguns are completely licensed variations of their real-world pistol counterparts. These airsoft guns can look and operate in the same ways identical to the real guns they are modeled around while shooting airsoft BBs as opposed to real world bullets.
There are a number of types of airsoft sidearms consisting of CO2, green gas or propane (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric gun handguns. Each of these forms of sidearms have positives and negatives associated with them. Learning about the kinds of airsoft handguns helps you make a decision on which type is right for you and your airsoft game play style.
Details About CO2 Airsoft Handguns
CO2 airsoft guns are one of the most typical and heavy duty types of handguns. These pistols use high pressure CO2 gas to force airsoft BBs out of the pistol barrel.
These styles of airsoft handguns are good choices for playing airsoft in cold and snowy temperatures considering that the compressed CO2 gas is stored in the sealed cylinders and less vulnerable to variation with low temperatures. This provides exceptional FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the cold for instance where other styles of airsoft sidearms like green gas stuffer from low performance or hardly fire pellets.
Additional Info About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridges
CO2 airsoft pistols are powered by standard 12 gram CO2 cylinders. These cartridges look similar to a shiny steel cylinder and contain high pressured CO2 gas comprised of 1 carbon atom and a couple of oxygen atoms, for this reason the molecular formula comes out to be “C + O2 “. These atoms are connected in the following order “O= C =O”. The gas is kept in the 12 gram cartridge cylinders under really high pressure of approximately ~ 800psi which correlates to 55bar.
The CO2 gas cartridges cannot be used multiple times and you can commonly buy them in packs of 12, 20, 50, or 100 12 gram CO2 cartridges. They come sealed to keep the CO2 gas securely within, but soon after they are opened (firing them inside of an airsoft gun breaks the seal) they will begin to lose pressure if they are not used up. You need to attempt to use up the entire CO2 cartridge the exact same day you open the seal. If the airsoft games end and you still have CO2 gas leftover, use the opportunity to do some handgun target practice and expend the rest of the excess gas. There is no gas level indicator on the cartridge so you have to shoot until the pistol stops firing BBs.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges have a long storage life. They come with a maker’s best used by date normally listed on the box or cartridge, however they will probably last for a prolonged time past this date if the cartridge seals are not broken.
Green Gas Airsoft Pistols
Green gas airsoft pistols are similar to CO2 guns, but they do not use CO2 cartridges. Instead, they use green gas or propane for propellant to propel 6mm airsoft BBs. The result on gameplay and green gas sidearm operation is virtually the same as CO2 handguns with the guns shooting up to about 300+ feet per second (FPS). Shots are rapidly fired in automatic or semi-automatic shooting modes and precisely hit targets at very short to mid-range distances.
The green gas is housed in the pistol’s magazine which can commonly hold around 15 to 20+ 6mm airsoft BBs depending on the handgun style. A bunch of valves, rubber stoppers, and seals keep the propane housed in the pistol magazine until the handgun’s trigger is pulled. It is a good habit to refill and top off your green gas supply in your mag each time you load it into the gun. Pistol-wielding airsoft players can additionally bring surplus bottles of propane gas in the field for reloading between lulls in the fight or in-between activities.
When running a green gas handgun on the airsoft field or arena as a backup or primary weapon, extra magazines are strongly recommended for rapidly reloading. Having extra magazines allows you to join in the action in the course of firefights or while clearing structures in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fights.
Green gas pistols are suitable for CQB at airsoft fields considering that rifles, long guns, and full-sized AEGs are normally not authorized to be used during indoor shooting. This is a safety rule because of the close range distance of players during shooting engagements and potential for players to get hurt. While green gas handguns still fire airsoft BBs at around 300 FPS, the shorter handgun barrel assists to keep the joules and energy shooting the BB at a lower level compared to AEG airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and long guns.
Thinking About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are two various kinds of green gas airsoft pistols. To start with there are green gas blowback handguns or GBBs. These guns run like an actual handgun with the slide “blowing back” and moving with every shot. The gas causes the slide to cycle each time a brand-new airsoft BB is chambered. This functionality is extremely cool, but the GBB weapons often cost more and potentially have more which can break. The green gas non-blowback airsoft handguns use a fixed slide which does not move. The non-blowback guns normally cost less than GBBs. Performance is around the same between the two varieties of green gas handguns.
About GBB and Green Gas Limits
Because the green gas or propane gas is kept in the magazine by rubber seals, o-rings, and silicone gaskets, cold temperatures can influence these seals and allow the gas to escape prior to shooting. This can make the airsoft BBs to just shoot a few feet (like 10 feet in cold weather ) when the green gas pistol would usually shoot 6mm BBs over 100+ feet in warmer weather).
One option to fix this problem is to make the GBB handgun magazines warmer by putting them near your body before airsoft game play. This can help to warm the seals and better seal in the green gas. If you definitely prefer to play airsoft with a trustworthy airsoft pistol in the cold, it might also be better to buy a CO2 version of your preferred pistol. The CO2 cylinders come sealed and the gun shoots much better in sub-freezing conditions and while playing in the snow.
About Spring Airsoft Sidearms
Spring airsoft handguns are powered by powerful springs with irregular pitches that shoot the BBs out of the gun’s barrel. The manual functioning of cocking, reloading, and shooting spring pistols makes the fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB handguns.
Spring pistols perform the best in springer wars where airsoft players can exclusively use related, single shot spring handguns or as an alternative backup gun for CQB buildings when you can frequently quietly sneak up on other airsoft opponents to get an assured one-shot-one-kill. In the latter circumstance, a fast 2nd follow-up shot isn’t called for considering that the other opponent is already hit by the airsoft BB and out of the gameplay or heading back to respawn. When engaging many different adversaries considering that the springer only fires as fast as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB manually, be cautious.
About Spring Pistol Performance
Spring handguns are remarkably useful under the proper circumstances. Their FPS commonly chronos at about 250 FPS to 300 FPS with lighter 0.12g airsoft BBs. These pistols usually fire the lighter weight airsoft BBs since the pitched springs are less powerful than other kinds of airsoft guns like rifles. Spring handguns can usually shoot up to 120 feet or more with 0.12g BBs but the ability to engage targets accurately diminishes rapidly. Using regular 0.20g weight airsoft BBs, you will most likely have a reduced shooting distance of around 60 to 80 feet or less with heightened precision.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Pistols
AEG airsoft pistols or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are definitely a viable option to carry as a sidearm on the airsoft field. These automatic electric pistols are commonly powered by mini stick batteries in the gun’s butt. They work similar to an AEG rifle and use compressed air forced through electrically cycled pistons, cylinders, and gearboxes to shoot airsoft BBs quickly and very quickly at that.
AEG pistol mags usually carry about 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The pistols can fire airsoft BBs up to around 300 FPS with 0.12g airsoft BBs or about 200 to 250 FPS with 0.20g airsoft BBs. The electrically powered gearbox system can shoot around 700+ BBs per minute which depends if you have enough spare magazines to maintain the ammo supply and the battery lasts that long. These handguns can precisely fire airsoft BBs at around 150 foot ranges.
AEG Pistol Quality and Efficiency
AEG pistol quality has actually risen significantly recently. The earliest gen AEP guns were a little bit questionable and undependable, however the newer designs have most of the bugs resolved and make efficient airsoft backup weapons. They can be modified with increased magazine storage capacities as well as accommodating more powerful batteries.
A substantial advantage of carrying an AEG handgun is that you have the ability to rewire the battery wires to use a larger battery with longer life. Depending on the AEG handgun style, you can gain a sizable jump in performance and fire rate by using a 2 cell Lipo battery (2S Lipo) rather than the stock mini battery. Take care of adjusting the parts and wires since you must think about the voltages, mAh, and loads of the batteries. If you have customization questions, ask an experienced airsoft gun service technician at your local airsoft store.
Which Airsoft Sidearm is Best for Me to Play with?
If you have over $100 to use to buy your airsoft pistol, evaluate a GBB handgun or AEG handgun. If you have between $50 to $100 to buy a gun, evaluate a CO2 handgun or more affordable GBB handgun. If your gun budget is lower, you can still find a long lasting airsoft handgun to use for the handgun games by checking out lower end pistols and by trading with other players on the used gun market.
