How to Choose an Airsoft Handgun
Find information about airsoft handguns and sidearms and how you can use them as backup guns or as core weapons on the airsoft playing field. A large number of airsoft handguns are completely manufactured releases of their genuine weapon counterparts and look and run in the same ways while shooting airsoft BBs instead of authentic bullets.
There are several varieties of airsoft handguns consisting of CO2, green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric handguns. Each of these types of handguns have benefits and differences related to them. Finding out about the types of airsoft sidearms helps you decide which type is right for you and your airsoft play style.
CO2 Airsoft Pistols
CO2 airsoft handguns are among the most popular and dependable varieties of handguns. They are all season guns and operate well in a lot of kinds of varying temperatures, weather and climates. These pistols use high pressure CO2 gas to move airsoft BBs out of the pistol barrel. The CO2 cartridge stores the gas within the cylinder and is normally held in the gun’s mag inside the handle.
These kinds of airsoft pistols are good for playing airsoft in cooler weather conditions since the compressed CO2 gas is stored in the sealed cylinders and less vulnerable to performance variations caused by low temperatures. This fact provides great FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the cold for example where other types of handguns like green gas cease to function or barely shoot pellets.
Info About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridge Cylinders
CO2 airsoft sidearms are powered by typical 12 gram CO2 cartridge cylinders. These cartridges resemble a metallic cylinder and store high-pressure CO2 gas comprised of 1 carbon atom and a pair of oxygen atoms, as a result of the molecular formula of “C + O2 “. These atoms are connected in the following alignment “O= C =O”. The gas is held in the 12 gram cartridge cylinders under very high pressure of near ~ 800psi which converts to 55bar.
The CO2 cartridge cylinders cannot be used multiple times and you can typically purchase them in packs of 12, 20, 50, or 100 12 gram CO2 cartridge sets. They come sealed to keep the CO2 gas securely within, but the moment they are opened (shooting them inside of an airsoft handgun breaks the seal) cartridges will start to lose pressure if they are not used up. You should try to run through the entire CO2 cartridge the 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 burn up the remaining extra gas. There is no gas level guide on the cartridge so you have to shoot until the weapon stops shooting BBs.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges have a long storage life. They are made with a supplier’s use by date typically printed on the package or cylinder, however, they will likely survive for an extended time past this date if the cartridge seals are not broken.
Green Gas Airsoft Pistol Facts
Green gas airsoft pistols are similar to CO2 pistols, however they do not use CO2 cartridges. The operational impact on the airsoft battlefield and green gas weapon performance is practically the very same as CO2 handguns with the weapons around 300+ FPS.
The green gas is sealed in the pistol’s magazine and can commonly hold in-between 15 to 20+ 6mm BBs based on the handgun style. A series of valves, silicone stoppers, and seals keep the propane gas housed in the pistol mag till the pistol’s trigger is squeezed. It is a good habit to top off and fill up the propane supply in your pistol mag each time you load it into the handgun. Pistol-wielding players can additionally take supplemental bottles of propane gas in the field for refilling between lulls in the fight or in-between activities.
When playing with a green gas handgun on the airsoft field as a backup or main weapon, additional pistol mags are strongly recommended for quickly reloading and engaging opponents. Having extra mags on-hand helps you re-engage in the action during firefights or while clearing buildings in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fights.
Green gas handguns are perfect for CQB at airsoft fields considering rifles and full-sized AEGs are usually not enabled to be used during indoor game play. This is a safety guideline because of the close quarters distance of gamers during shooting engagements and the potential for players to be injured. While green gas pistols still shoot airsoft BBs at around 300 FPS, the shorter handgun barrel aids to keep the joules and energy forcing the BB lower compared to AEGs, airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and long guns.
Thinking About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are two various forms of green gas airsoft pistols. First there are green gas blowback handguns or GBBs. These pistols function like an actual handgun with the pistol slide “blowing back” and moving with every shot. Every time a new airsoft BB is loaded into the chamber, the gas induces the slide to cycle. The result is really cool, but the guns typically are more expensive and likely have more to break. The green gas non-blowback airsoft handguns use a fixed slide which does not cycle. The non-blowback handguns typically cost less than GBBs. Efficiency is about the same when comparing the two varieties of green gas pistols.
About GBB and Green Gas Limits
Since the green gas or propane is held in the magazine using rubber seals and silicone gaskets, cold temps can influence these gaskets and cause the gas to escape prior to shooting the gun. The decrease in pressure can cause the airsoft BBs to only land a number of feet (like 10 feet in cold temps ) when the handgun would typically shoot BBs over 100+ feet in warmer temperatures).
One option to this issue is to make the GBB handgun magazines warmer by putting them next to your body just before the airsoft game play. If you truly need to play with a trustworthy airsoft handgun in the cold, it might additionally be worth getting a CO2 version of your preferred pistol.
Spring Airsoft Pistols
Spring airsoft handguns are powered by strong springs with irregular pitches that propel the BBs out of the gun barrel. The manual actions of firing, reloading, and cocking spring guns makes the fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB airsoft guns.
Spring handguns work the best in springer wars where opponents can exclusively use related, single shot spring weapons or as a close quarters combat backup gun for CQB environments when you can usually sneak up to other airsoft opponents to get a guaranteed one-shot-one-kill. In the latter circumstance, a quick second follow-up shot will not be really needed because the other opponent is now struck and out of the game or moving back to respawn. When engaging numerous adversaries given that the spring gun only shoots as quick as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB by hand, be careful.
About Spring Handgun Performance
Spring pistols are extremely efficient under the appropriate conditions during games. Their FPS generally chronos at about 250 FPS to 300 FPS with 0.12g airsoft BBs. These handguns usually fire lighter weight airsoft BBs due to the fact that the coiled springs are less effective than other types of airsoft guns like SMGs. Spring guns can normally engage targets at ranges of up to 120 feet or more with 0.12 gram BBs but the ability to engage targets accurately reduces quickly. Shooting regular 0.20 gram weight airsoft BBs, you will most likely have a decreased range of about 60 to 80 feet with enhanced precision.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Handguns
AEG airsoft sidearms or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are definitely a good choice to carry as a backup weapon on the airsoft field. These automatic electric handguns are often powered by mini stick batteries in the gun’s handle. They function just like an AEG gun and use forced air forced through electrically cycled pistons and cylinders to propel airsoft BBs quickly and very quickly at that.
AEG pistol magazines normally carry about 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The pistols can fire airsoft BBs up to around 300 FPS with 0.12g airsoft BBs or about 200 to 250 FPS using 0.20g airsoft BBs. The electrically powered gearbox system can shoot around 700+ 6mm BBs per minute which depends if you have enough spare mags to reload (after every 20 to 30 shots) and the battery lasts that long. These pistols can effectively fire airsoft BBs at about 150 foot ranges.
AEG Pistol Quality and Performance
AEG pistol quality has grown considerably in the last few years. The initial gens were a little bit sketchy and undependable, however the new designs have the deficiencies worked out and make effective airsoft backup guns. They can be upgraded with increased magazine capacities as well as accommodating bigger batteries.
A substantial benefit of using an AEG pistol is that you have the opportunity to rewire the battery wires to use an enhanced battery with higher mAh. Depending upon the AEG pistol version, you are able to get a sizable leap in performance and fire rate by using a 2 cell Lipo battery (like an 2S Lipo) as an alternative to the standard battery. Take care of adjusting the components and the gun’s wires because you must consider the volts, mAh, and loads of the battery. Ask a professional gun service technician at your closest airsoft store if you have modding inquiries.
Which Airsoft Handgun is Right for Me?
Picking out the ideal airsoft handgun for you depends upon your budget, how often you desire to play airsoft with it, and where you decide to play. If you can afford over one-hundred dollars to spend on your airsoft pistol, look at a green gas handgun or AEP handgun. These kinds of handguns are usually the best of the best, have great efficiency, and can be a great airsoft gun to invest in. If you have between fifty to one-hundred dollars to spend on upgrading your airsoft arsenal, look at a CO2 pistol or a second-tier green gas blowback pistol. These guns will still finish the job and will be sturdy sidearms. Look for a lower end CO2 or spring pistol if you have $50 or less. You can still buy a tough airsoft pistol to use for the handgun games.
