How to Pick an Airsoft Pistol
Learn about airsoft pistols and sidearms 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 authentic weapon counterparts and look and run in the very same ways while shooting airsoft BBs rather than authentic bullets.
There are a variety of airsoft handguns including CO2, green gas or propane (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric pistols. Each of these kinds of sidearms has benefits and differences associated with them. Learning about the varieties of airsoft handguns helps you make a decision on which type is right for you and your airsoft game play style.
Details About CO2 Airsoft Sidearms
CO2 airsoft handguns are among the most long-lasting and standard types of pistols. They are all season weapons and function well in many kinds of temperatures, weather and climates. These sidearms use pressurized CO2 gas to propel airsoft BBs out of the handgun barrel. The CO2 cartridge is generally located in the gun’s magazine inside the handle.
These kinds of airsoft weapons are good choices for playing in cooler weather conditions due to the fact that the pressurized CO2 gas is less vulnerable to FPS decreases with temperature. This fact gives CO2 airsoft pistols very good FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the cold weather for example where other sorts of pistols like green gas stuffer from low performance or hardly shoot pellets.
Info About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridge Cylinders
CO2 airsoft sidearms are powered by basic 12 gram CO2 cylinders. These cartridges look similar to a metallic cylinder and store high-pressure CO2 gas consisting of one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms hence the molecular formula is “C + O2”.
The cartridges come sealed to keep the CO2 gas securely inside, however the moment they are opened (shooting them inside of an airsoft handgun breaks the cartridge seal) they will begin to lose pressure if they are left unused. If the airsoft matches 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.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges can be stored for a while. They are made with a maker’s expiration date usually noted on the package or cylinder, however, they will probably survive for a prolonged time past this date if the cartridge seals are not broken.
Green Gas and Propane Airsoft Pistol Details
Green gas airsoft handguns are similar to CO2 pistols, but they use green gas or propane instead of CO2 cartridges. The operational impact on the battleground and green gas weapon efficiency is virtually the very same as CO2 handguns with the guns around 300+ FPS.
The propane is stored in the pistol’s magazine that can typically hold around 15 to 20+ BBs depending on the pistol model. A series of valves, rubberized gaskets, and o-rings keep the gas pressurized in the mag till the pistol’s trigger is pulled.
When playing with a green gas sidearm on the airsoft field as a backup or main gun, additional pistol mags are suggested for rapidly reloading and engaging opponents. Having extra mags on-hand allows you to re-engage in the action during firefights or while sweeping buildings in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fights.
Green gas handguns are ideal for CQB at airsoft fields since long guns and full-sized AEGs are normally not authorized to be used for indoor game play. This is a safety guideline due to the close range distance of airsoft players during the shooting engagements and potential for players to get hurt. While green gas pistols can still fire airsoft BBs at around 300 FPS, the shorter pistol barrel aids to keep the joules and energy shooting the BB lower compared to AEGs, sniper rifles, and long guns.
About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are 2 different varieties of green gas airsoft handguns. To begin with there are green gas blowback handguns or GBBs. These pistols function like a real pistol with the pistol’s slide “blowing back” and cycling with every shot. When a brand-new airsoft BB is loaded into the chamber, the gas causes the slide to cycle. This functioning while shooting is very cool, however the GBB handguns often cost more and possibly have more to break. The green gas non-blowback airsoft guns use a fixed slide which does not move. The non-blowback guns usually cost less than GBBs. Efficiency is about the same between the two styles of green gas pistols.
About GBB and Green Gas Limits
While green gas usually can be used very well, it does have constraints. When they are used in the winter in the snow or in cold weather (like under 32 degrees F). Given that the green gas or propane gas is stored in the mag by silicone seals and gaskets, cold temperatures can impair these seals and cause the stored gas to seep out prior to firing the pistol. The depressurized gas can make the airsoft BBs to just shoot several feet (like 10 feet in cold temps ) when it would usually shoot BBs over 100+ foot ranges in warmer weather).
One solution to this problem is to keep the GBB pistol magazines warmer by positioning them next to a heat source or by your body just before the game play. This can help to warm up the seals, gaskets, and valves and better seal in the green gas. It can also be worth checking out a CO2 variation of your favorite handgun if you truly need to play airsoft with a reliable airsoft handgun in the cold. The CO2 cylinders come sealed and the gun shoots much better in sub-freezing conditions and while playing in the snow.
Spring Airsoft Sidearm Details
Spring airsoft handguns are powered by powerful coil springs that fire the airsoft BBs out of the handgun barrel. They are usually single-shot. The manual action of reloading, firing, and cocking spring airsoft guns makes the weapon’s fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB handguns. When facing competitors on the airsoft field with upgraded rifles like automatic airsoft AEG rifles, SMGs, sniper rifles, and CO2 or GBB airsoft handguns, this makes spring guns enjoyable to use, but less efficient.
Spring sidearms perform the best in springer battles where participants can exclusively use comparable, single shot spring guns or as a transition backup weapon for CQB environments when you can usually surprise other airsoft game players to get an assured one-shot-one-kill. In the latter situation, a quick second followup shot isn’t called for since the other person is now struck and out of the gameplay or moving back to respawn. When engaging a number of attackers because the gun simply shoots as quickly as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB manually, be careful.
About Spring Handgun Efficiency
Spring guns are quite reliable under the best conditions during airsoft games. Their FPS generally chronos at around 250 FPS to 300 FPS with lighter 0.12 gram airsoft BBs. These guns generally fire lighter weight airsoft BBs due to the fact that the coiled springs are less powerful than other types of airsoft guns. Spring pistols can normally be accurate at up to 120 feet or more with 0.12g BBs but precision reduces rapidly. Choosing regular 0.20 gram weight airsoft BBs, you will very likely have a reduced range of around 60 to 80 feet with heightened accuracy.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Pistol Information
AEG airsoft handguns or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are also a good choice to use as a sidearm on the airsoft field. These automatic electric handguns are often powered by mini stick batteries in the pistol’s handle. They function much like an AEG rifle and use compressed air forced through electrically cycled pistons and gearboxes to fire airsoft BBs out of the barrel and very quickly at that.
AEG handgun mags generally can carry around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The handguns can shoot airsoft BBs right up to around 300 FPS with 0.12 gram airsoft BBs or around 200 to 250 FPS with 0.20 gram airsoft BBs. The electric battery powered gearbox system can shoot around 700+ BBs per minute which depends on if you have enough spare mags to reload (after every 20 to 30 rounds) and the battery lasts that long. These pistols can effectively fire airsoft BBs at around 150 foot ranges.
AEG Handgun Quality and Performance
AEG handgun quality has increased considerably recently. The initial gens were a little bit sketchy and unreliable, however the newer versions have the problems resolved and make reliable airsoft secondary guns. They can be improved with enhanced mag storage capacities as well as accommodating bigger batteries.
A big benefit of using an AEG pistol is that you have the power to rewire the battery connectors to use a larger battery. Depending on the AEG handgun model, you can gain a large output in efficiency by using a 2 cell Lipo battery (like an 2S Lipo) rather than the stock AEP battery.
Which Airsoft Sidearm is Right for Me to Buy?
Looking for the right airsoft sidearm for you depends upon how much you can afford, how often you wish to play airsoft with it, and where you decide to play. Consider a GBB green gas handgun or automatic electric AEP pistol if you have more than $100 to invest on your airsoft pistol. These kinds of handguns are normally the top-tier guns, have good performance, and are usually an excellent investment. If you can afford in-between fifty to one-hundred dollars to spend on upgrading your airsoft arsenal, look into a CO2 pistol or more affordable green gas blowback handgun. These guns will still work well and will be pretty tough sidearms. If you have fifty dollars or less, look for a cheap CO2 or springer handgun. You can still get a long lasting airsoft pistol to use for the pistol airsoft guns.
