Information About Airsoft Pistol Kinds
Find information about airsoft pistols and handguns and how you can use them as secondary guns or as main weapons on the airsoft playing field. A lot of airsoft pistols are completely certified models of their genuine weapon equivalents and look and run in the exact same ways while shooting airsoft BBs rather than authentic 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 pistols. Each of these forms of sidearms has negatives and positives connected with them. Learning more about the styles of airsoft sidearms allows you to decide which type is right for you and your airsoft play style.
CO2 Airsoft Handgun Details
CO2 airsoft pistols are one of the most tough and typical types of sidearms. These handguns use CO2 stored in small cylinders to force airsoft BBs out of the handgun barrel.
These types of airsoft guns are great for airsoft games in colder temperatures because the compressed CO2 gas is stored in the sealed cylinders and less sensitive to FPS decreases with low temperatures. This fact gives CO2 airsoft pistols great FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the cold weather for instance where other sorts of airsoft handguns like green gas stuffer from low performance or barely shoot BBs.
Additional Info About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cylinders
CO2 airsoft pistols are powered by regular 12 gram CO2 cartridge cylinders. These cartridges look similar to a shiny metallic cylinder and contain high pressured CO2 gas composed of just one carbon atom and 2 oxygen atoms hence the molecular formula of “C + O2”.
The CO2 cartridge cylinders cannot be refilled and you can normally purchase them in bundles of 12, 20, 50, or 100 12 gram CO2 cartridge sets. They come sealed to preserve the CO2 gas safely and securely inside, once they are opened (shooting them in an airsoft handgun breaks the seal) cartridges will start to lose pressure if they are not expended. You need to attempt to dissipate the entire CO2 cartridge the exact same day you open the seal. Use the opportunity to do some handgun target practice and use up the rest of the extra gas if the airsoft games end and you still have CO2 gas left. There is no gas level gauge on the cartridge so you need to shoot until the handgun stops shooting airsoft BBs.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges have a long storage life. They come with the manufacturer’s best used by date usually listed on the box or cylinder, however, they will probably maintain pressure for a long period past this date if the cartridge seals are not tampered with.
Information About Green Gas Airsoft Handguns
Green gas airsoft pistols are similar to CO2 pistols, however they use propane gas instead of CO2 cartridges. The impact on the battleground and green gas weapon efficiency is practically the exact same as CO2 handguns with the guns around 300+ FPS.
The green gas is kept in the pistol’s grip within the magazine which can often hold in-between 15 to 20+ BBs depending upon the handgun model. A series of valves, rubber stoppers, and seals keep the propane gas stored in the pistol mag until the pistol’s trigger is squeezed. It is a good habit to fill up and top off the propane supply in the mag each time you reload it. Pistol-wielding gamers can also carry extra bottles of green gas in the field for reloading magazines between breaks in the war or between missions.
When running a green gas sidearm on the airsoft field or arena as a main or secondary weapon, additional pistol mags are suggested for rapidly reloading. Having extra magazines on-hand helps you re engage in the action in the course of firefights or while sweeping buildings in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fighting.
Green gas handguns are optimal for CQB at airsoft fields considering that rifles and full-sized AEGs are typically not approved to be used during indoor engagements. This is a safety rule due to the close quarters distance of players during shooting engagements and the potential for players to be hurt. While green gas pistols can still fire airsoft BBs at about 300 FPS, the shorter handgun barrel aids to keep the joules and energy shooting the BB lower compared to AEGs, sniper rifles, and long guns.
Thinking About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are 2 different kinds of green gas airsoft pistols. There are green gas blowback handguns or GBBs where the slide moves and non-blowback handguns. The green gas non-blowback airsoft handguns use a fixed slide which does not move.
About GBB and Green Gas Limitations
Since the green gas or propane gas is held in the handgun mag by using rubber seals and silicone gaskets, cold temperatures can negatively influence these seals and cause the gas to escape prior to shooting the pistol. The decrease in pressure can cause the airsoft BBs to simply land a number of feet (like 10 feet in the cold ) when the gun would typically shoot 6mm BBs over 100+ foot distances in warmer weather).
One option to this problem is to keep the GBB handgun magazines warmer by placing them next to your body, beside a heater, or inside your jacket just before game play. If you absolutely need to play with a dependable airsoft handgun in the cold, it might also be worth getting a CO2 style of your favorite pistol.
Spring Airsoft Pistols
Spring airsoft guns are powered by powerful coil springs that propel the airsoft BBs out of the handgun barrel. They are typically single-shot. The manual functions of reloading, shooting, and cocking spring airsoft guns makes the fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB handguns. When going up against opponents on the airsoft field with fully automatic airsoft AEG rifles, SMGs, and CO2, green gas, or GBB airsoft pistols, this makes spring airsoft guns entertaining to use, however less effective.
Spring sidearms perform the best in springer wars where players can exclusively use comparable, single shot spring weapons or as a close quarters combat weapon for CQB environments when you can usually surprise other airsoft opponents to get an assured one-shot-one-kill. In the latter circumstance, a quick second followup shot is not required since the other opponent is now hit by the first shot and out of the game play or running back to respawn. When engaging several adversaries considering that the gun just shoots as quick as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB by hand, be cautious.
About Spring Handgun Effectiveness
Spring pistols are incredibly efficient under the proper scenarios and airsoft games. Their FPS usually chronos at about 250 FPS to 300 FPS with lighter weight 0.12g airsoft BBs. These handguns normally fire lighter weight airsoft BBs since the springs are less effective than other kinds of airsoft guns like SMGs. Spring guns can generally be accurate at up to 120 feet or more with 0.12g BBs however accuracy diminishes quickly. Choosing conventional 0.20g weight airsoft BBs, you will probably have a decreased shooting distance of around 60 to 80 feet with improved target accuracy.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Pistols
AEG airsoft handguns or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are definitely an option to bring into the field as a sidearm on the airsoft field. These automatic electric handguns are commonly powered by mini stick batteries in the pistol’s grip. They work much like an AEG gun and use pressured air pumped through electrically cycled pistons and gearboxes to shoot airsoft BBs quickly and very rapidly at that.
AEG pistol mags generally can hold around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The handguns can shoot airsoft BBs up to around 300 FPS with 0.12 gram airsoft BBs or 200 to 250 FPS using 0.20g airsoft BBs.
AEG Pistol Quality and Efficiency
AEG handgun quality has grown substantially in recent years. The early generation AEP guns were a bit undependable and questionable, but the new versions have the issues worked out and make reliable airsoft secondary guns. They can be modded with maximized magazine capacities in addition to accommodating larger batteries.
A big advantage of carrying an AEG pistol is that you have the capacity to rewire the adapters to use a larger battery with longer life. Based on the AEG handgun type, you are able to gain a sizable jump in performance by utilizing a 2 cell Lipo battery (2S Lipo) as opposed to the standard battery. Take care of adjusting the parts and the gun’s wires because you must think about the volts, mAh, and loads of the battery. If you have customization questions, ask a qualified airsoft gun tech at your closest airsoft shop.
What Airsoft Pistol is Best for Me to Play with?
Picking the best airsoft pistol for you depends on your budget, how much you plan 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, consider a green gas blowback or GBB pistol or AEP pistol. These are normally the top-tier guns, have the best build qualities, and could be a great airsoft gun to invest in. If you have around more than $50 but less than $100 to spend, take a look at a CO2 handgun or more affordable green gas blowback pistol. These will still get the job done and will be sturdy sidearms. Look for a cheaper CO2 or spring pistol if you have fifty dollars or less. You can still buy a sturdy airsoft pistol to use for the pistol games.
