Information on the Designs of Airsoft Pistols
Learn about airsoft handguns and pistols and how you can use them as backup weapons or as primary weapons on the airsoft playing field. Practicing your shot accuracy and getting the right sidearm can make a big difference in hitting your shots. Sidearms, naturally, are diminished range airsoft guns. They are generally designed after real-world handguns or look-alikes of actual pistols. Many airsoft sidearms are completely certified adaptations of their genuine weapon equivalents. These airsoft guns can look and feel and function (short of shooting bullets) in the same ways similarly to the real guns they are modeled around while firing airsoft BBs rather than real bullets.
There are several kinds of airsoft sidearms including CO2, green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric pistols. Each of these kinds of handguns come with negatives and positives related to them. Finding out about the types of airsoft pistols helps you choose which type is right for you and your airsoft gameplay style.
CO2 Airsoft Pistol Details
CO2 airsoft pistols are among the most typical and heavy-duty styles of pistols. They are all-season, all-weather weapons working well in many kinds of extreme temperatures, weather and environments. These pistols use pressurized CO2 gas to force airsoft BBs down the gun barrel. The CO2 cartridge stores the gas within a cylinder and is typically located in the handgun’s handle.
These forms of airsoft pistols are great for playing airsoft in cooler weather conditions since the compressed CO2 gas is less vulnerable to performance decreases with low temperatures. This gives CO2 airsoft handguns exceptional FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the wintertime for example where other sorts of airsoft handguns like green gas stop operating or hardly shoot airsoft BBs.
Additional Info About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridge Cylinders
CO2 airsoft guns are powered by standard 12 gram CO2 cartridges. These cartridges resemble a chrome metal cylinder and contain high pressure CO2 gas consisting of one carbon atom and a pair of oxygen atoms, for this reason the molecular formula of “C + O2 “. These atoms are attached in the following sequence “O= C =O”. The gas is kept in the 12 gram cartridge cylinders under extremely high pressure of roughly ~ 800psi that translates to 55bar.
The CO2 gas cartridges cannot be refilled and you can usually order them in bundles of 12, 20, 50, or 100 12 gram CO2 cartridge sets. They come sealed to keep the CO2 gas safely inside, once they are punctured (shooting them inside of an airsoft handgun breaks the cartridge seal) they will start to lose pressure if they are not expended. You ought to try to expend the whole CO2 cartridge the same day you open the seal. If the airsoft matches end and you still have CO2 gas left, use the opportunity to do some pistol accuracy and target practice and burn up the remaining excess gas. There is no gas level indicator on the cartridge so you have to shoot until the pistol stops shooting airsoft BBs.
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 may last for a long period of time past this date if the cartridge seal is not tampered with.
Green Gas and Propane Airsoft Handguns
Green gas airsoft handguns are similar to CO2 pistols, but they do not use CO2 cartridges. The effect on the battlefield and green gas weapon performance is practically the very same as CO2 pistols with the guns at about 300+ FPS.
The propane gas is held in the pistol’s mag which can usually hold between 15 to 20+ airsoft BBs based on the handgun model. A series of valves, rubberized gaskets, and seals keep the gas pressurized in the mag till the handgun’s trigger is squeezed.
When using a green gas pistol on the airsoft field as a backup or main gun, bringing extra handgun mags is recommended for rapidly reloading. Having additional mags on-hand helps you reengage in the action during firefights or while sweeping structures in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room battles.
Green gas pistols are perfect for CQB at airsoft fields given that rifles, long guns, and full-sized AEGs are generally not permitted to be used during indoor game play. This is an essential safety standard due to the close quarters distance of players during shooting engagements and the potential for players to be injured. While green gas pistols still shoot airsoft BBs at around 300 FPS, the short handgun barrel aids to keep the joules and energy sending the BB lower compared to airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and other long guns.
Thinking About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are 2 various sorts of green gas airsoft handguns. There are green gas blowback handguns or GBBs and non-blowback pistols. The green gas non-blowback airsoft pistols have a fixed slide which does not move.
About GBB and Green Gas Issues
While green gas usually performs very well, it does have limitations. This includes when green gas guns are used throughout the winter airsoft season in the snow or in colder weather (like under 32 degrees F). Given that the green gas or propane is kept in the magazine by rubber seals, o-rings, and gaskets, low temperatures can impair these seals and cause the stored gas to leak out prior to firing the handgun. This can make the airsoft BBs to just shoot a couple of feet (like 10 feet in the cold ) when it would normally shoot airsoft BBs over 100+ foot distances in warmer weather).
One option to this issue is to make the GBB pistol magazines warmer by placing them next to your body or near a heat source before the airsoft game play. If you absolutely desire to play with a trustworthy airsoft pistol in the cold, it might also be worth getting a CO2 version of your favorite pistol.
Spring Airsoft Sidearm Info
Spring airsoft handguns are powered by powerful springs with irregular pitches that fire the BBs down the handgun barrel. They are generally only able to shoot one BB. The manual functioning of reloading, cocking, and firing spring guns makes the weapon’s fire rate much slower than CO2 and GBB handguns. When facing other airsoft players on the airsoft field with upgraded rifles, automatic airsoft AEG assault rifles, SMGs, sniper rifles, and CO2, green gas, or GBB airsoft handguns, this can make spring airsoft guns fun to use, but less efficient.
Spring airsoft guns work most effectively in springer wars where opponents can only use similar, single shot spring pistols or as a transition backup weapon for CQB buildings when you can often quietly sneak up on other airsoft players to get a guaranteed one-shot-one-kill. In the latter case, a rapid second followup shot is not needed given that the other person is already hit by the airsoft BB and out of the gameplay or heading back to respawn. When engaging many different enemies given that the spring airsoft gun just fires as quickly as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB by hand, be careful.
About Spring Handgun Efficiency
Spring guns are incredibly efficient under the right circumstances and airsoft games. Their FPS generally chronos at about 250 FPS to 300 FPS with 0.12g airsoft BBs. These guns typically fire the lighter weight airsoft BBs since the coiled springs are less powerful than other styles of airsoft guns like rifles. Spring guns can typically be accurate at up to 120 feet or more with 0.12 gram BBs but accuracy is reduced rapidly. Choosing normal 0.20g weight airsoft BBs, you will probably have a shooting distance of around 60 to 80 feet with heightened accuracy.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Pistol Info
AEG airsoft handguns or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are definitely a viable option to use as a secondary gun on the airsoft field. These automatic electric pistols are commonly powered by mini stick batteries in the pistol’s butt. They operate much like an AEG rifle and use pressurized air with electrically cycled pistons, gearboxes, and cylinders to propel airsoft BBs out of the barrel and very quickly at that.
AEG pistol magazines generally can carry about 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The handguns can launch airsoft BBs up to around 300 FPS with 0.12 gram airsoft BBs or 200 to 250 FPS using 0.20g airsoft BBs.
AEG Pistol Quality and Efficiency
AEG handgun quality has grown considerably over the last few years. The initial generation AEP guns were a little bit undependable and questionable, however the latest models have most of the bugs worked out and make effective airsoft secondary guns. They can be further modified with maximized magazine capacities and by accommodating more powerful batteries.
A large benefit of buying an AEG handgun is that you have the capability to rewire the connectors to use an enhanced battery. Depending on the AEG handgun style, you may be able to gain a large jump in performance by using a two cell Lipo battery (like an 2S Lipo) as a replacement for the standard battery. Be careful with changing the elements and wires since you need to take into consideration the voltages, mAh, and loads of the battery. If you have customization concerns, ask a qualified airsoft gun tech at your local airsoft shop or store.
Which Airsoft Pistol is Best for Me to Buy?
If you have over $100 to use to buy your airsoft pistol, evaluate a green gas blowback pistol or AEG pistol. If you have around fifty to one-hundred dollars to buy a gun, check out a CO2 pistol or more affordable GBB handgun. If your gun budget is lower, you can still get a hold of a durable airsoft handgun to use for the handgun games.
