Info About Airsoft Pistol Types
Learn more about airsoft pistols and handguns and how you can use them as backup weapons or as primary weapons on the airsoft playing field. Getting the ideal sidearm and practicing with it can be a game changer in the accuracy of your shots. Handguns, naturally, are reduced range airsoft guns. They are normally crafted after real world pistols or clones of real pistols. A large number of airsoft sidearms are fully certified editions of their real handgun equivalents. These airsoft guns can visually look and function (short of shooting bullets) in the same ways identically to the real guns they are designed after while shooting airsoft BBs as opposed to real 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 styles of pistols has benefits and differences related to them. Learning about the types of airsoft sidearms allows you to decide which type is right for you and your airsoft game play style.
CO2 Airsoft Sidearms
CO2 airsoft handguns are one of the most standard and long lasting types of handguns. These handguns use CO2 stored in small cylinders to force airsoft BBs out of the weapon barrel.
These types of airsoft weapons are good choices for playing airsoft in cooler temperatures considering that the high pressure CO2 gas is stored in the sealed cylinders and less sensitive to variation by temperature. This fact gives CO2 airsoft handguns great FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the cold for example where other sorts of airsoft sidearms like green gas stuffer from low performance or barely shoot pellets.
Information About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridges
CO2 airsoft pistols are powered by common 12 gram CO2 cylinders. These cartridges look similar to a metal cylinder and store high-pressure CO2 gas made up of 1 carbon atom and a pair of oxygen atoms, for this reason the molecular formula is “C + O2 “. These atoms are bonded in the following alignment “O= C =O”. The gas is stored in the 12 gram cartridges under really high pressure of around ~ 800psi that converts to 55bar.
The CO2 cartridges are not multiple-use and you can normally purchase them in packs of 12, 20, 50, or 100 12 gram CO2 cartridge sets. They come sealed to preserve the CO2 gas safely and securely within, but soon after they are opened (firing them in an airsoft handgun breaks the cartridge seal) cartridges will start to lose pressure if they are not expended. You should try to expend the whole CO2 cartridge the very same day you open the seal. If the airsoft games end and you still have CO2 gas leftover, use the chance to do some pistol target practice and use up the remainder of the surplus gas. There is no gas level guide on the cartridge so you have to shoot until the pistol stops shooting airsoft BBs.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges can be stored for a longtime. They are made with a manufacturer’s expiry date usually noted on the package or cylinder, however, they will probably maintain pressure for a long period past this date if the cartridge seals are not broken.
Details About Green Gas Airsoft Handguns
Green gas airsoft pistols function similarly to CO2 pistols, but they do not use CO2 cartridges. Alternatively, they use green gas or propane gas for propellant to fire 6mm airsoft BBs. The outcome on game play and green gas sidearm efficiency is just about the same as CO2 handguns with the weapons shooting up to 300+ feet per second. Shots are efficiently fired in fully-automatic or semi-automatic firing modes and accurate at short to mid-range distances.
The propane is stored in the handgun’s magazine that can typically hold around 15 to 20+ airsoft BBs based on the handgun model. A series of valves, rubber gaskets, and o-rings keep the gas stored in the magazine till the handgun’s trigger is pulled.
When running a green gas sidearm on the airsoft field or arena as a primary or secondary gun, extra magazines are encouraged for rapidly reloading and engaging the op force. Having additional magazines helps you reengage in the action in the middle of firefights or while sweeping buildings in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fights.
Green gas pistols are perfect for CQB at airsoft fields because rifles and full-sized AEGs are normally not authorized to be used for indoor shooting. This is an essential safety rule because of the close range distance of gamers during the shooting engagements. While green gas pistols still shoot airsoft BBs at around 300 FPS, the short pistol barrel helps to keep the joules and energy shooting 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 two different varieties of green gas airsoft pistols. There are green gas blowback handguns or GBBs. The green gas non-blowback airsoft pistols have a stationary slide which does not move.
About GBB and Green Gas Limitations
Due to the fact that the green gas or propane gas is stored in the pistol mag by using rubber seals, o-rings, and silicone gaskets, the cold can negatively influence these gaskets and cause the stored gas to leak out prior to shooting the pistol. This lack of pressure can make the airsoft BBs to merely shoot a few feet (like 10 feet in cold weather ) when the handgun would normally shoot BBs over 100+ feet in warmer temperatures).
One solution to this issue is to make the GBB pistol magazines warmer by holding them next to your body before game play. This can help to heat up the rubber gaskets and better seal in the green gas. If you really desire to have fun with a dependable airsoft handgun in the cold, it might also be worth buying a CO2 variation of your favorite pistol. The CO2 cartridges come sealed and the gun will shoot better in sub-freezing conditions and while playing in the snow.
Spring Airsoft Handgun Facts
Spring airsoft guns are powered by strong springs that launch the airsoft BBs out of the pistol barrel. They are usually one shot. The manual actions of reloading, firing, and cocking spring airsoft guns makes the fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB handguns. When confronting rivals on the airsoft field with fully automatic airsoft AEG SMGs, assault rifles, sniper rifles, and CO2, green gas, or GBB airsoft pistols, this makes spring airsoft pistols fun to use, but less efficient.
Spring sidearms work the best in springer battles where game players can exclusively use similar, single shot spring guns or as an alternative backup gun for CQB buildings and MOUT sites when you can often sneak up to other airsoft game players to get an assured one-shot-one-kill. In the latter situation, a rapid second followup shot will not be needed considering that the other player is now hit by the first BB and out of the game or going back to respawn. When engaging a number of airsoft players considering that the springer just shoots as fast as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB manually, be cautious.
About Spring Pistol Effectiveness
Spring guns are incredibly efficient under the proper situations. Spring handguns can commonly shoot accurately up to 120 feet or farther with 0.12 gram BBs however the ability to engage targets decreases quickly.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Pistols
AEG airsoft pistols 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 grip. They operate much like an AEG gun and use pressured air forced through electrically cycled pistons and cylinders to propel airsoft BBs out of the barrel and very quickly at that.
AEG handgun magazines normally hold about 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The pistols can shoot airsoft BBs up to around 300 FPS with 0.12g airsoft BBs or 200 to 250 FPS using 0.20g airsoft BBs.
AEG Pistol Quality and Efficiency
AEG pistol quality has increased considerably recently. The early gen guns were a little bit sketchy and unreliable, however the new models have the problems worked out and make efficient airsoft secondary weapons. They can be upgraded with increased mag capacities in addition to accommodating larger batteries.
A large perk of using an AEG handgun is that you have the opportunity to rewire the battery wires to use a larger battery with longer life. Depending upon the AEG pistol model, you are able to gain a substantial leap in efficiency by utilizing a 2 cell Lipo battery (2S Lipo) as opposed to the stock AEP battery. Take extra precautions when adjusting the components and wires because you should think about the voltages, mAh, and loads of the battery. If you have customization questions, ask a qualified weapon technician at your nearest airsoft shop.
Which Airsoft Sidearm is Right for Me to Play with?
Picking the ideal airsoft sidearm for you depends on how much you can afford, how much you plan to play airsoft using it, and where you decide to play. Look into a GBB green gas pistol or automatic electric AEP pistol if you have over one-hundred dollars to spend on your airsoft pistol. These are typically the top-tier guns, have the best efficiency, and are usually an excellent gun to get. If you have about more than fifty but less than one-hundred dollars to use for your gun, look into a CO2 pistol or a more affordable green gas pistol. Middle of the road guns like these will still be fun to play with and are sturdy sidearms. Look for a lower end CO2 or spring handgun if you have less than fifty dollars. You can still get a resilient airsoft pistol to use for the pistol airsoft guns.
