How to Choose an Airsoft Pistol
Find out about airsoft sidearms and handguns and how you can use them as backup guns or as primary weapons on the airsoft playing field. Getting the ideal handgun and practicing with it can be a game changer in hitting your shots. Sidearms, by nature, are much shorter range airsoft guns. They are quite often made after actual guns or clones of actual handguns. A large number of airsoft pistols are completely licensed releases of their actual pistol counterparts. These airsoft guns can handle in the same ways and visually appear identical to the real guns they are modeled around while shooting airsoft BBs instead of genuine bullets.
There are a few kinds of airsoft sidearms consisting of CO2, green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric gun handguns. Each of these varieties of sidearms come with positives and negatives related to them. Finding out about the styles of airsoft sidearms lets you figure out which type is right for you and your airsoft gameplay style.
CO2 Airsoft Pistol Details
CO2 airsoft guns are one of the most common and long-lasting types of pistols. These pistols use CO2 stored in small cylinders to launch airsoft BBs out of the pistol barrel.
These kinds of airsoft pistols are very good for airsoft games in cold and snowy weather considering that the pressurized CO2 gas is less vulnerable to FPS decreases by temperature. This provides good FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the winter months for example where other sorts of airsoft guns like green gas stop functioning or hardly shoot pellets.
Additional Info About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridges
CO2 airsoft pistols are powered by standard 12 gram CO2 cylinders. These cartridges look like a shiny metallic cylinder and contain high pressured CO2 gas consisting of 1 carbon atom and a pair of oxygen atoms hence the molecular formula is “C + O2”.
The CO2 gas cartridges cannot be used multiple times and you can typically order them in bundles of 12, 20, 50, or 100 12 gram CO2 cartridges. They come sealed to keep the CO2 gas safely inside, but soon after they are opened (firing them in an airsoft gun breaks the cartridge seal) the cartridges will start to lose pressure if they are not used up. You ought to try to dissipate the whole CO2 cartridge the exact same day you open the seal. Use the chance to do some handgun target practice and use up the rest of the excess gas if the airsoft matches end and you still have CO2 gas left. There is no gas level sign on the cartridge so you need to shoot up until the handgun stops shooting airsoft BBs.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges have a long storage life. They have a supplier’s expiry date typically printed on the package or cartridge, however, they can maintain pressure for a very long period past this date if the cartridge seal is not tampered with.
Green Gas and Propane Airsoft Handguns
Green gas airsoft pistols are comparable to CO2 handguns, but they use green gas instead of CO2 cartridges. The impact on the battlefield and green gas weapon efficiency is practically the very same as CO2 pistols with the guns around 300+ FPS.
The propane is kept in the pistol’s mag which can commonly hold in-between 15 to 20+ airsoft BBs depending on the handgun style. A series of valves, rubber gaskets, and seals keep the gas pressurized in the magazine till the pistol’s trigger is squeezed.
When bringing a green gas sidearm on the airsoft field or arena as a secondary or main weapon, extra handgun magazines are suggested for quickly reloading and engaging the op force. Having additional magazines helps you re-engage in the action during firefights or while sweeping structures in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fighting.
Green gas pistols are great for CQB at airsoft fields because rifles, long guns, and full-sized AEGs are normally not authorized to be used during indoor engagements. This is an essential safety standard because of the close range proximity of players during shooting engagements. While green gas pistols still shoot airsoft BBs at about 300 FPS, the shorter pistol barrel aids to keep the joules and energy shooting the BB lower compared to AEG airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and other long guns.
About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are 2 different forms of green gas airsoft handguns. There are green gas blowback pistols or GBBs. These handguns operate like an actual pistol with the pistol slide “blowing back” with every shot. When a brand-new airsoft BB is loaded into the chamber, the gas triggers the slide to cycle. This cycling is really cool, however the GBB guns usually are more expensive and likely have more parts to break. The green gas non-blowback airsoft pistols use a stationary slide which does not move. The non-blowback pistols normally cost less than GBBs. Efficiency is around the same when comparing the two types of green gas pistols.
About GBB and Green Gas Issues
While green gas usually can be used extremely well on the airsoft field, it does have limitations. When green gas and GBB guns are used in the winter airsoft games in the snow or in cold temperatures (like under 32 deg F). Because the green gas or propane is held in the pistol mag using silicone seals, o-rings, and gaskets, the cold can impair the seals and trigger the gas to leak out before shooting airsoft BBs. This can make the airsoft BBs to merely shoot a couple of feet (like 10 feet in cold temps ) when the gun would usually shoot BBs over 100+ feet in warmer temps).
One option to fix this issue is to try to keep the GBB pistol mags warmer by placing them near your body prior to game play. This can help to warm the seals, gaskets, and valves and better seal in the green gas. It might also be worth getting a CO2 version of your preferred handgun if you truly need to play with a reputable airsoft pistol in the cold. The CO2 cylinders come sealed and the gun shoots much better in sub-freezing temps and while playing in the snow.
Facts About Spring Airsoft Handguns
Spring airsoft handguns are powered by strong springs that propel the airsoft BBs down the handgun barrel. They are normally only able to shoot one BB. The manual functions of firing, reloading, and cocking spring pistols makes the fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB pistols. When taking on competitors on the airsoft field with advanced weaponry like automatic airsoft AEG SMGs, rifles, and CO2 or GBB airsoft handguns, this makes spring airsoft pistols enjoyable to use, however less efficient.
Spring pistols work the best in springer battles where game players can exclusively use similar, single shot spring pistols or as a transition weapon for CQB buildings when you can often surprise other airsoft participants to get an assured one-shot-one-kill. In the latter scenario, a fast 2nd follow-up shot isn’t called for given that the other player is already hit by the first BB and out of the gameplay or moving back to respawn. Beware when fighting numerous players because the springer only fires as fast as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB manually.
About Spring Pistol Effectiveness
Spring handguns are quite effective under the right game conditions. Spring pistols can normally fire up to 120 feet or more with 0.12 gram BBs but target accuracy reduces quickly.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Sidearms
AEG airsoft pistols or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are definitely an option to bring into the field as a sidearm on the airsoft field. These automatic electric pistols are commonly powered by mini stick batteries in the pistol’s handle. They operate much like an AEG gun and use pressurized air pumped through electrically cycled pistons and gearboxes to fire airsoft BBs quickly and rapidly.
AEG pistol magazines generally store about 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The handguns can fire airsoft BBs up to around 300 FPS with 0.12g airsoft BBs or around 200 to 250 FPS using 0.20g airsoft BBs. The electrically powered gearbox system can shoot around 700+ BBs per minute assuming you have enough magazines to reload (after every 20 to 30 shots) and the battery maintains its charge that long. These handguns can effectively shoot airsoft BBs at around 150 foot ranges.
AEG Handgun Quality and Performance
AEG handgun quality has actually increased substantially in recent years. The first gen guns were a bit unreliable and questionable, however the latest models have the bugs resolved and make reliable airsoft secondary guns. They can be modified with enhanced mag capacities and also accommodating larger batteries.
A large benefit of using an AEG pistol is that you have the power to rewire the battery connections to use a more substantial battery. Depending on the AEG pistol style, you can gain a substantial jump in efficiency by using a two cell Lipo battery (2S Lipo) as a replacement for the stock mini battery.
What Airsoft Handgun is Best for Me to Play with?
Selecting the best airsoft handgun for you depends upon how much you can afford, how often you want to play airsoft using it, and where you decide to play. Look into a GBB green gas pistol or automatic electric AEP handgun if you have over one-hundred dollars to spend on your airsoft handgun. These are normally the top of the line, have great build qualities, and are usually an excellent pistol to buy. Look into a CO2 handgun or less costly GBB pistol if you have about fifty to one-hundred dollars to put into an airsoft gun purchase. These guns will still be fun to play with and will be durable sidearms. If you have less than $50, research a low end CO2 or spring handgun. You can still buy a sturdy airsoft handgun to use for the pistol airsoft guns.
