Airsoft Handgun Type Additional Info
Find information about airsoft pistols and handguns and how you can use them as extra weapons or as main weapons on the airsoft playing field. A large number of airsoft pistols are fully manufacturer licensed models of their real weapon equivalents and look and operate in the very same ways while shooting airsoft BBs instead of authentic bullets.
There are a variety of airsoft pistols consisting of CO2, propane or green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric pistols. Each of these kinds of handguns has benefits and differences associated with them. Learning more about the types of airsoft sidearms lets you figure out which type is right for you and your airsoft game play style.
About CO2 Airsoft Handguns
CO2 airsoft handguns are one of the most typical and dependable types of sidearms. These handguns use high pressure CO2 gas to force airsoft BBs out of the pistol barrel.
These types of airsoft guns are exceptional for playing airsoft in cold weather conditions given that the pressurized CO2 gas is stored in the sealed cylinders and less vulnerable to performance decreases with low temperatures. This provides good FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the winter for instance where other sorts of pistols like green gas stuffer from low performance or barely fire airsoft BBs.
Additional Info About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridge Cylinders
CO2 airsoft handguns are powered by basic 12 gram CO2 cartridges. These cartridges resemble a shiny cylinder and store high pressure CO2 gas comprised of a single carbon atom and 2 oxygen atoms for this reason the molecular formula is “C + O2”.
The CO2 gas cartridge cylinders cannot be refilled and you can typically buy 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 (shooting them in an airsoft handgun breaks the seal) the cartridges will start to lose pressure if they are left unused. You need to try to dissipate the entire CO2 cartridge the very 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 accuracy and target practice and burn up the remainder of the extra gas. There is no gas level indication on the cartridge so you have to shoot until the gun stops cycling.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges have a long storage life. They have a manufacturer’s expiry date usually printed on the box or cylinder, but they will probably last for a very long period past this date if the cartridge seals are not punctured.
Details About Green Gas Airsoft Handguns
Green gas airsoft handguns are comparable to CO2 handguns, however they use green gas or propane instead of CO2 cartridges. The result on the battleground and green gas weapon efficiency is almost the very same as CO2 handguns with the weapons at around 300+ FPS.
The propane is stashed in the pistol’s airsoft magazine that can typically hold in-between 15 to 20+ airsoft BBs depending on the pistol style. A series of valves, rubberized gaskets, and silicone o-rings keep the gas stored in the magazine before the pistol’s trigger is squeezed.
When playing with a green gas sidearm on the airsoft field or arena as a backup or main weapon, additional handgun mags are advised for rapidly reloading and engaging opponents. Having additional magazines on-hand allows you to re-engage in the action in the middle of firefights or while clearing structures in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room battles.
Green gas pistols are perfect for CQB at airsoft fields given that rifles, long guns, and full-sized AEGs are normally not allowed to be used during indoor gameplay. This is an essential safety regulation due to the close range proximity of airsoft players during shooting engagements and the potential for players to be injured. While green gas handguns can still shoot airsoft BBs at about 300 FPS, the short handgun barrel helps to keep the joules and energy moving the BB lower compared to AEGs, airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and other long guns.
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 where the slide moves and non-blowback handguns. The green gas non-blowback airsoft pistols use a stationary slide which does not move.
About GBB and Green Gas Limits
While green gas normally performs extremely well on the airsoft field, it does have limits. This includes when they are used throughout the winter airsoft games in the snow or in colder temperatures (like less than 32 deg F). Since the green gas or propane is kept in the weapon’s magazine using silicone seals and gaskets, cold weather can negatively affect these seals and allow the stored gas to leak out prior to shooting airsoft BBs. This can make the airsoft BBs to only shoot a few feet (like 10 feet in the cold ) when the gun would ordinarily shoot BBs over 100+ feet in warmer temperatures).
One solution to this problem is to keep the GBB handgun magazines warmer by putting them next to a heat source or by your body just before the airsoft game play. This can help to warm the rubber gaskets and better seal in the green gas. It may also be worth checking out a CO2 variation of your favorite handgun if you really need to play with a reputable airsoft pistol in the cold. The CO2 cartridges come sealed and these guns shoot much better in sub-freezing temps and while playing in the snow.
Details About Spring Airsoft Sidearms
Spring airsoft sidearms are powered by powerful coil springs that fire the airsoft BBs out of the handgun barrel. They are generally single-shot. The manual functions of cocking, reloading, and firing spring pistols makes the weapon’s fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB handguns. When confronting players on the airsoft field with upgraded rifles, fully auto airsoft AEG SMGs, assault rifles, and CO2 or GBB airsoft handguns, this makes spring guns fun to use, however less efficient.
Spring handguns perform best in springer battles where game players can solely use comparable, single shot spring handguns or as an alternative weapon for CQB settings when you can frequently sneak up to other airsoft opponents to get a guaranteed one-shot-one-kill. In the latter scenario, a quick second follow-up shot is not called for since the other opponent is already struck and out of the game or going back to respawn. When engaging multiple foes since the weapon just shoots as quickly as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB by hand, be cautious.
About Spring Handgun Efficiency
Spring guns are incredibly useful under the most ideal game circumstances. Spring pistols can usually shoot up to 120 feet or farther with 0.12 gram BBs but accuracy decreases quickly.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Pistol Facts
AEG airsoft handguns or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are also a good choice to bring as a secondary gun on the airsoft field. These automatic electric pistols are commonly powered by mini stick batteries in the gun’s butt. They function just like an AEG rifle and use forced air forced through electrically cycled pistons and cylinders to propel airsoft BBs quickly and rapidly.
AEG handgun magazines usually hold around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The pistols can fire airsoft BBs up to about 300 FPS using 0.12 gram airsoft BBs or 200 to 250 FPS with 0.20 gram airsoft BBs.
AEG Handgun Quality and Efficiency
AEG handgun quality has actually risen considerably over the last few years. The earliest generations were a bit undependable and questionable, but the latest designs have most of the issues worked out and make reliable airsoft secondary weapons. They can be further upgraded with enhanced mag capacities in addition to accommodating bigger batteries.
A huge advantage of carrying an AEG pistol is that you have the ability to rewire the wires to use a bigger battery with longer life. Based on the AEG pistol design, you are able to get a substantial boost in performance and fire rate by using a two cell Lipo battery (like an 2S Lipo) as a replacement for the stock AEP battery. Take care of adjusting the parts and wires since you need to think about the volts, mAh, and loads of the batteries. Ask an expert airsoft specialist at your closest airsoft shop if you have modding inquiries.
What Airsoft Pistol is Right for Me to Play with?
If you have more than one-hundred dollars to spend on your airsoft handgun, check out a GBB pistol or AEG handgun. If you have around $50 to $100 to shell out, review a good quality CO2 handgun or cheaper GBB handgun. You can still find a long lasting airsoft pistol by checking out lower end pistols and by trading with players selling used airsoft guns if you are looking for a deal.
