Information About the Varieties of Airsoft Handguns
Find out about airsoft sidearms and how you can use them as backup guns or as primary weapons on the airsoft playing field. Practicing your shot accuracy and getting the ideal pistol can make a big difference in blasting your shots. Sidearms, by nature, are shorter range airsoft guns. They are generally made after authentic pistols or clones of genuine handguns. Many different airsoft sidearms are fully licensed releases of their real-world weapon equivalents. These airsoft guns can appear and run in the same ways identical to the real guns they are designed after while blasting airsoft BBs in place of real-world bullets.
There are a variety of airsoft pistols including CO2, green gas or propane (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric handguns. Each of these forms of handguns have negatives and positives connected with them. Learning more about the varieties of airsoft sidearms helps you choose which type is right for you and your airsoft play style.
Details About CO2 Airsoft Handguns
CO2 airsoft pistols are one of the most long lasting and typical types of handguns. They are all-season, all-weather guns and function well in lots of types of weather and climates. These pistols use high pressure CO2 gas to push airsoft BBs out of the pistol barrel. The CO2 cartridge is normally located in the handgun’s handle.
These forms of airsoft pistols are good for playing in colder temperatures since the compressed CO2 gas is stored in the sealed cylinders and less prone to variation with temperature levels. This provides good FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the cold weather for instance where other types of pistols like green gas cease to function or hardly fire BBs.
About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridge Cylinders
CO2 airsoft guns are powered by common 12 gram CO2 cylinders. These cartridges look similar to a shiny steel cylinder and store high-pressure CO2 gas composed of 1 carbon atom and 2 oxygen atoms, and so the molecular formula is “C + O2 “. These atoms are bonded in the following sequence “O= C =O”. The gas is kept in the 12 gram cylinders under really high pressure of around ~ 800psi which translates to 55bar.
The CO2 cartridge cylinders cannot be used multiple times and you can usually order them in bundles of 12, 20, 50, or 100 12 gram CO2 cartridges. They come sealed to keep the CO2 gas securely inside, once they are punctured (firing them in an airsoft weapon breaks the seal) cartridges will start to lose pressure if they are not expended. You must attempt to expend 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 chance to do some handgun accuracy and target practice and consume the rest of the additional gas. There is no gas level indicator on the cartridge so you need to shoot until the pistol stops shooting BBs.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges can be stored for a while. They do have a maker’s expiration date normally listed on the box or cartridge, however, they may maintain pressure for a prolonged time past this date if the cartridge seal is not tampered with.
Green Gas and Propane Airsoft Sidearms
Green gas airsoft sidearms function similarly to CO2 guns, but they do not use CO2 cartridges. Alternatively, they use green gas or propane for propellant to propel 6mm airsoft BBs. The impact on the battlefield and green gas weapon functionality is essentially the same as CO2 pistols with the weapons shooting up to about 300+ feet per second. Shots are efficiently fired in automatic or semi-automatic firing modes and precisely hit targets at very short to mid-range ranges.
The green gas is stored in the handgun’s magazine that can usually hold around 15 to 20+ BBs based on the handgun model. A series of valves, rubberized gaskets, and seals keep the gas stored in the mag till the handgun’s trigger is squeezed.
When bringing a green gas handgun on the airsoft field or arena as a secondary or primary weapon, bringing additional handgun magazines is encouraged for quickly reloading and getting back into the game. Having extra mags on-hand allows you to re engage in the action in the middle of firefights or while sweeping structures in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room combat.
Green gas pistols are perfect for CQB at airsoft fields considering rifles and full-sized AEGs are generally not permitted to be used for indoor engagements. This is an essential safety regulation because of the close quarters proximity of airsoft players during the 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 pistol barrel assists to keep the joules and energy forcing the BB lower compared to airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and long guns.
About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are 2 various varieties of green gas airsoft handguns. There are green gas blowback pistols or GBBs and non-blowback handguns. The green gas non-blowback airsoft pistols have a fixed slide which does not move.
About GBB and Green Gas Limits
While green gas typically works extremely well, it does have restrictions. For example, when they are used in the winter season in the snow or in very cold temperatures (like under 32 degrees F). Given that the green gas or propane is stored in the weapon’s magazine by rubber seals, o-rings, and gaskets, cold weather can impact the seals and make the gas to escape prior to shooting. This can make the airsoft BBs to only shoot several feet (like 10 feet in cold temps ) when the pistol would typically shoot airsoft BBs over 100+ foot distances in warmer weather).
One solution to this problem is to try to keep the GBB pistol mags warmer by placing them close to your body before airsoft game play. This can help to warm the rubber seals and better seal in the green gas. If you honestly want to play with a reputable airsoft pistol in the cold, it can also be better to buy a CO2 version of your preferred pistol. The CO2 cylinders come sealed and the gun shoots better in sub-freezing temps and while playing in the snow.
Details About Spring Airsoft Handguns
Spring airsoft pistols are powered by powerful coil springs that fire the BBs out of the handgun’s barrel. The manual actions of shooting, cocking, and reloading spring handguns makes the fire rate much slower than CO2 and GBB pistols.
Spring pistols perform the best in springer battles where opponents can solely use similar, single shot spring guns or as a transitional weapon for CQB buildings and MOUT sites when you can frequently sneak up to other airsoft game players to get an assured one-shot-one-kill. In the latter circumstance, a quick second followup shot is not called for given that the other opponent is now hit and out of the game play or heading back to respawn. When engaging several airsoft players since the spring airsoft gun only shoots as quickly as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB by hand, be cautious.
About Spring Pistol Performance
Spring guns are incredibly efficient under the best scenarios. Spring guns can commonly fire up to 120 feet or more with 0.12g BBs but precision decreases rapidly.
Info on AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Pistols
AEG airsoft handguns or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are also a viable option to carry as a backup weapon on the airsoft field. These automatic electric pistols are normally powered by mini stick batteries in the gun’s handle. They function similar to an AEG SMG and use compressed air with electrically cycled cylinders and gearboxes to propel airsoft BBs out of the barrel and very rapidly at that.
AEG pistol magazines normally carry around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The pistols can shoot airsoft BBs as high as about 300 FPS when loaded with 0.12g airsoft BBs or around 200 to 250 FPS with 0.20g airsoft BBs. The electrically powered gearbox system can shoot around 700+ 6mm BBs per minute which is estimated if you have enough spare magazines to reload (after every 20 to 30 shots) and the battery lasts that long. These pistols can accurately fire airsoft BBs at around 150 foot distances.
AEG Handgun Quality and Performance
AEG handgun quality has grown substantially recently. The initial gen guns were a little bit undependable and sketchy, but the newer models have the deficiencies worked out and make reliable airsoft secondary weapons. They can be further modified with enhanced mag capacities in addition to accommodating bigger batteries.
A substantial benefit of carrying an AEG pistol is that you have the opportunity to rewire the battery connectors to use an increased capacity battery with higher mAh. Depending upon the AEG pistol style, you may be able to gain a large jump in performance utilizing a two cell Lipo battery (like an 2S Lipo) in place of the stock mini battery. Beware of adjusting the components and wires since you have to think about the volts, mAh, and electrical loads of the batteries. Ask an experienced airsoft service technician at your local airsoft shop or store if you have modding questions.
Which Airsoft Handgun is Right for Me?
Deciding on the most ideal airsoft handgun for you depends on your gun budget, how much you plan to play airsoft using it, and where you hope to play. If you can use $100 or more to invest in your airsoft handgun, take a look at a green gas blowback handgun or AEG pistol. These guns are typically the top of the line, have the very best build qualities, and could be a pretty good handgun to buy. If you can afford around $50 to $100 to devote to your airsoft gun purchase, look at a CO2 handgun or a cheaper GBB pistol. These will still be fun to play with and can be sturdy sidearms. Look for a cheap CO2 or spring handgun if you have $50 or less. You can still get a resilient airsoft pistol to use for the handgun games.
