About the Varieties of Airsoft Pistols
Find out about airsoft pistols and how you can use them as backup weapons or as main weapons on the airsoft playing field. Practicing your accuracy and getting the right pistol can make a big difference in hitting your shots. Sidearms, by nature, are lower range airsoft weapons. They are typically produced after firearm pistols or look-alikes of actual pistols. Numerous airsoft handguns are fully licensed models of their real world handgun counterparts. These airsoft guns can handle in the same ways and appear similarly to the real guns they are designed around while firing airsoft BBs instead of authentic bullets.
There are several types of airsoft pistols including CO2, propane or green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric gun handguns. Each of these varieties of handguns have benefits and differences connected with them. Finding out about the styles of airsoft sidearms helps you make a decision on which type is right for you and your airsoft game play style.
CO2 Airsoft Pistols
CO2 airsoft guns are one of the most typical and heavy-duty types of handguns. These pistols use pressurized CO2 gas to push airsoft BBs out of the handgun barrel.
These styles of airsoft guns are great for playing in colder weather conditions considering that the pressurized CO2 gas is stored in the sealed cylinders and less susceptible to FPS decreases by low temperature. This gives CO2 airsoft sidearms great FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the winter months for instance where other types of guns like green gas stuffer from low performance or hardly fire BBs.
Information About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cylinders
CO2 airsoft sidearms are powered by common 12 gram CO2 cartridge cylinders. These cartridges look similar to a shiny metallic cylinder and contain high-pressure CO2 gas made up of a single carbon atom and a pair of oxygen atoms for this reason the molecular formula of “C + O2”.
The cartridges come sealed to keep the CO2 gas safely within, but once they are opened (firing them in an airsoft handgun breaks the seal) they will begin 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 come with the supplier’s use by date typically noted on the package or cylinder, however they will probably survive for a very long period of time past this date if the cartridge seal is not broken.
Green Gas and Propane Airsoft Sidearm Info
Green gas airsoft handguns are similar to CO2 pistols, however they use propane gas instead of CO2 cartridges. The operational impact on the battlefield and green gas weapon performance is virtually the same as CO2 handguns with the weapons shooting up to 300+ FPS.
The propane is kept in the handgun’s mag which can often hold around 15 to 20+ airsoft BBs depending on the pistol type. A series of valves, rubber gaskets, and silicone seals keep the gas pressurized in the mag up until the pistol’s trigger is pulled.
When playing with a green gas sidearm on the airsoft field as a main or backup gun, bringing extra mags is advised for quickly reloading. Having additional mags helps you re-engage in the action in the course of firefights or while sweeping structures in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fights.
Green gas handguns are optimal for CQB at airsoft fields because rifles, long guns, and full-sized AEGs are normally not approved to be used for indoor game play. This is a safety standard due to the close quarters distance of players during the shooting engagements and potential for players to get hurt. While green gas pistols can still fire airsoft BBs at about 300 FPS, the short pistol barrel aids to keep the joules and energy shooting the BB lower compared to AEG airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and long guns.
Thinking About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are 2 different types of green gas airsoft handguns. To start with there are green gas blowback pistols or GBBs. These guns operate like a real handgun with the pistol slide “blowing back” and cycling with every shot. The gas causes the slide to cycle every time when a brand-new airsoft BB is loaded into the chamber. This functionality is really cool, however the GBB pistols usually are more expensive and possibly have more parts that can break. The green gas non-blowback airsoft handguns use a fixed slide which does not move. The non-blowback weapons normally cost less than GBBs. Performance is about the same when comparing the two kinds of green gas pistols.
About GBB and Green Gas Limitations
Since the green gas or propane is held in the handgun mag using rubber o-rings, seals, and gaskets, cold weather can negatively affect these seals and allow the stored gas to leak out prior to shooting the pistol. The decrease in pressure can make the airsoft BBs to merely shoot a couple of feet (like 10 feet in the cold ) when it would usually shoot airsoft BBs over 100+ feet in warmer temperatures).
One option to this issue is to make the GBB pistol magazines warmer by placing them next to your body prior to the airsoft game play. If you really want to play with a reputable airsoft handgun in the cold weather, it might additionally be worth getting a CO2 version of your favorite pistol.
Spring Airsoft Pistols
Spring airsoft guns are powered by powerful coil springs that fire the airsoft BBs out of the handgun barrel. They are generally single shot. The manual actions of cocking, firing, and reloading spring handguns makes the weapon’s fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB pistols. When fighting competitors on the airsoft field with upgraded rifles like automatic airsoft AEG assault rifles, SMGs, sniper rifles, and CO2, green gas, or GBB airsoft handguns, this makes spring airsoft guns entertaining to use, but less effective.
Spring airsoft guns perform the best in springer battles where participants can solely use related, single shot spring guns or as a transitional weapon for CQB environments when you can frequently sneak up to other airsoft opponents to get a guaranteed one-shot-one-kill. In the latter case, a rapid 2nd followup shot isn’t really needed because the other player is now hit by the first BB and out of the gameplay or headed back to respawn. When engaging numerous enemies since the spring gun just shoots as fast as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB by hand, be cautious.
About Spring Handgun Effectiveness
Spring pistols are very useful under the ideal situations. Spring handguns can often shoot accurately up to 120 feet or more with 0.12g BBs however target accuracy decreases quickly.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Sidearm Details
AEG airsoft sidearms or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are also a viable option to bring as a secondary weapon on the airsoft field. These automatic electric handguns are typically powered by mini stick batteries in the pistol’s grip. They function just like an AEG rifle and use pressurized air pumped through electrically cycled cylinders and gearboxes to shoot airsoft BBs quickly and rapidly.
AEG pistol magazines normally carry about 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The handguns can fire airsoft BBs as high as around 300 FPS when loaded with 0.12 gram airsoft BBs or about 200 to 250 FPS using 0.20 gram airsoft BBs. The electric gearbox system can shoot around 700+ BBs per minute assuming you have enough spare magazines to maintain the ammo supply and the battery lasts that long. These AEP pistols can efficiently fire airsoft BBs at about 150 foot distances.
AEG Pistol Quality and Performance
AEG pistol quality has actually risen substantially in the last few years. The earliest gen guns were a little bit sketchy and unreliable, but the latest designs have most of the deficiencies resolved and make reliable airsoft secondary guns. They can be modified with increased mag storage capacities in addition to accommodating more powerful batteries.
A substantial advantage of using an AEG pistol is that you have the ability to rewire the battery connectors to use a bigger battery. Depending on the AEG pistol type, you can get a large output in performance by using a two cell Lipo battery (2S Lipo) instead of the stock AEP battery.
Which Airsoft Handgun is Best for Me to Buy?
If you have more than one-hundred dollars to use to buy your airsoft handgun, take a look at a green gas blowback handgun or AEG pistol. If you have around fifty to one-hundred dollars to buy a gun, review a good quality CO2 handgun or more affordable GBB handgun. You can still look for a long lasting airsoft pistol by checking out lower end pistols and by shopping for used guns if you are on a budget.
