Airsoft Handgun Style Info
Learn more about airsoft pistols and sidearms and how you can use them as backup guns or as main weapons on the airsoft playing field. Getting the best sidearm and practicing with it can make an impact in nailing your shots. Pistols, naturally, are reduced range airsoft weapons. They are quite often fashioned after firearm guns or copies of genuine handguns. A lot of airsoft sidearms are completely licensed editions of their real-world handgun equivalents. These airsoft guns can run in the same ways and visually appear similarly to the real guns they are modeled after while firing airsoft BBs as opposed to real bullets.
There are a number of kinds of airsoft handguns such as CO2, green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric pistols. Each of these kinds of pistols has benefits and differences related to them. Learning more about the types of airsoft sidearms lets you choose which type is right for you and your airsoft game play style.
Details About CO2 Airsoft Handguns
CO2 airsoft handguns are one of the most popular and sturdy kinds of handguns. They are all-season, all-weather pistols and work well in lots of kinds of weather conditions and environments. These sidearms use high pressure CO2 gas to shoot airsoft BBs down the handgun barrel. The CO2 cartridge stores the gas within a cylinder and is normally housed in the handgun’s mag inside the handle.
These types of airsoft pistols are exceptional for playing airsoft in cooler temperatures given that the high pressure CO2 gas is stored in the sealed cylinders and less prone to FPS decreases caused by low temperature. This fact offers very good FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the cold for example where other varieties of airsoft handguns like green gas stuffer from low performance or barely shoot pellets.
Additional Info About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridges
CO2 airsoft handguns are powered by typical 12 gram CO2 cartridges. These cartridges resemble a metallic cylinder and hold high pressure CO2 gas consisting of 1 carbon atom and a couple of oxygen atoms for this reason the molecular formula of “C + O2”.
They come sealed to keep the CO2 gas securely inside, but soon after they are opened (firing them inside of an airsoft handgun breaks the seal) they will start to lose pressure if they are left unused. If the airsoft games end and you still have CO2 gas left, use the chance to do some handgun target practice and use up the rest of the additional gas.
CO2 cartridges have a long storage life if they are kept sealed. They do have the maker’s best used by date normally listed on the box or cylinder, but they may last for an extended time past this date if the cartridge seal is not punctured.
Green Gas Airsoft Handguns
Green gas airsoft handguns resemble CO2 pistols, but they do not use CO2 cartridges. Rather, they use green gas or propane for propellant to propel the airsoft pellets. The effect on game play and green gas weapon efficiency is almost the same as CO2 handguns with the weapons shooting up to about 300+ feet-per-second (FPS). Shots are efficiently fired in semi-automatic or fully-automatic shooting modes and can hit targets at very short to mid-range distances.
The green gas is housed in the pistol’s grip within the mag and can frequently hold in-between 15 to 20+ 6mm BBs depending on the pistol style. A set of valves, rubber gaskets, and o-rings keep the gas housed in the pistol magazine up until the pistol’s trigger is squeezed. It is a great choice to top off and refill your green gas in your mag each time you reload it. Pistol-wielding players can even bring extra bottles of green gas in the field for reloading mags between breaks in the fight or between missions.
When using a green gas handgun on the airsoft field or arena as a primary or backup gun, extra magazines are advised for rapidly reloading and engaging opponents. Having additional mags on-hand allows you to join in the action during firefights or while sweeping buildings in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room combat.
Green gas handguns are perfect for CQB at airsoft fields considering long guns and full-sized AEGs are generally not allowed to be used during indoor gameplay. This is an essential safety rule because of the close quarters distance of gamers during shooting engagements and the potential for players to be injured. While green gas pistols can still shoot airsoft BBs at around 300 FPS, the short handgun barrel aids to keep the joules and energy forcing the BB at a lower level compared to AEG airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and other long guns.
Thinking About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are two different sorts of green gas airsoft pistols. There are green gas blowback pistols or GBBs where the slide moves and non-blowback pistols. The green gas non-blowback airsoft pistols use a fixed slide which does not move.
About GBB and Green Gas Limitations
Due to the fact that the green gas or propane gas is housed in the pistol mag by rubber seals and silicone gaskets, the cold can negatively affect these o-rings and allow the gas to escape prior to shooting the pistol. This lack of pressure can cause the airsoft BBs to only land a number of feet (like 10 feet in cold temps ) when the green gas handgun would usually shoot airsoft BBs over 100+ foot distances in warmer temperatures).
One solution to this issue is to try to keep the GBB pistol mags warmer by positioning them next to a heater or by your body just before the game play. This can help to warm the rubber gaskets and help to seal in the green gas. If you really prefer to use a reliable airsoft handgun in the cold, it might also be worth buying a CO2 version of your favorite handgun. The CO2 cylinders come sealed and these guns shoot far better in sub-freezing temps and while playing in the snow.
Spring Airsoft Pistol Details
Spring airsoft pistols are powered by strong springs with irregular pitches that fire the BBs out of the handgun’s barrel. The manual functions of shooting, cocking, and reloading spring pistols makes the fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB pistols.
Spring handguns work the best in springer battles where airsoft players can only use similar, single shot spring weapons or as a transition backup gun for CQB buildings when you can usually quietly sneak up on other airsoft participants to get an assured one-shot-one-kill. In the latter scenario, a quick 2nd follow-up shot will not be really needed because the other player is now hit by the first BB and out of the gameplay or moving back to respawn. When engaging many different enemies given that the weapon only shoots as fast as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB by hand, be cautious.
About Spring Handgun Performance
Spring pistols are remarkably reliable under the proper scenarios. Their FPS often chronos at about 250 FPS to 300 FPS with lighter 0.12g airsoft BBs. These pistols generally fire the lighter weight airsoft BBs since the coiled springs are less powerful than other types of airsoft guns like SMGs. Spring pistols can typically engage targets at ranges of up to 120 feet or more with 0.12 gram BBs but the ability to engage targets decreases quickly. Choosing standard 0.20g weight airsoft BBs, you will very likely have a reduced range of around 60 to 80 feet or less with improved precision.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Handgun Facts
AEG airsoft sidearms or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are definitely a viable option to bring into the field as a secondary gun on the airsoft field. These automatic electric handguns are commonly powered by mini stick batteries in the weapon’s grip. They operate much like an AEG gun and use compressed air with electrically cycled cylinders, pistons, and gearboxes to shoot airsoft BBs out of the barrel and very rapidly at that.
AEG pistol magazines generally carry around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The handguns can fire airsoft BBs up to around 300 FPS using 0.12 gram airsoft BBs or 200 to 250 FPS with 0.20 gram airsoft BBs.
AEG Pistol Quality and Efficiency
AEG handgun quality has increased significantly over the last few years. The earliest generations were a little bit sketchy and undependable, but the newer models have most of the deficiencies worked out and make efficient airsoft backup guns. They can be upgraded with maximized magazine capacities along with accommodating larger batteries.
A substantial advantage of carrying an AEG handgun is that you have the capability to rewire the adapters to use a larger battery. Depending on the AEG handgun style, you can gain a huge output in functionality by taking advantage of a 2 cell Lipo battery (like an 2S Lipo) as a replacement for the stock battery.
Which Airsoft Pistol is Best for Me?
Picking the most ideal airsoft handgun for you depends upon your budget, how much you would like to play airsoft using it, and where you hope to play. Check out a GBB green gas handgun or AEG pistol if you have more than one-hundred dollars to spend on your airsoft handgun. These kinds of pistols are usually the best of the best, have the most effective build qualities, and could be a great gun to get. If you have around $50 to $100 to spend, check out a CO2 pistol or less expensive GBB pistol. Mid-tier guns like these will still work well and can be pretty long lasting sidearms. Look for a low end CO2 or spring pistol if you have $50 or less. You can still find a long-lasting airsoft pistol to use for the pistol airsoft guns.
