How to Choose an Airsoft Handgun
Find information about airsoft pistols and sidearms and how you can use them as extra weapons or as primary weapons on the airsoft playing field. Lots of airsoft pistols are completely manufactured replications of their actual weapon counterparts and operate and look in the exact same ways while shooting airsoft BBs instead of real bullets.
There are a variety of airsoft pistols consisting of CO2, green gas or propane (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric gun handguns. Each of these forms of handguns come with benefits and differences connected with them. Learning more about the types of airsoft handguns helps you decide which type is right for you and your airsoft game play style.
CO2 Airsoft Pistol Details
CO2 airsoft pistols are among the most popular and heavy-duty varieties of handguns. They are all-weather weapons and operate well in many types of weather, extreme temperatures, and environments. These handguns use high pressure CO2 gas to shoot airsoft BBs down the pistol barrel. The CO2 cartridge stores the gas within the cylinder and is normally stored in the handgun’s magazine in the handle.
These types of airsoft guns are great for playing in cold and snowy weather conditions considering that the pressurized CO2 gas is less prone to FPS decreases caused by temperature levels. This gives CO2 airsoft handguns excellent FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the winter for instance where other kinds of airsoft pistols like green gas cease to work or barely fire pellets.
Additional Info About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cylinders
CO2 airsoft pistols are powered by typical 12 gram CO2 cartridge cylinders. These cartridges resemble a metallic cylinder and store high pressure CO2 gas made up of 1 carbon atom and two oxygen atoms thus the molecular formula is “C + O2”.
They come sealed to keep the CO2 gas safely within, but soon after they are opened (firing them in an airsoft pistol breaks the cartridge seal) they will begin to lose pressure if they are left unused. If the airsoft games end and you still have CO2 gas left, use the chance to do some pistol target practice and use up the rest of the excess gas.
CO2 cartridges have a long storage life if the cylinders are stored sealed. They come with a supplier’s best used by date normally noted on the box or cylinder, however they may last for a long period of time past this date if the cartridge seal is not punctured.
Green Gas and Propane Airsoft Pistol Facts
Green gas airsoft handguns function similarly to CO2 handguns, but they do not use CO2 cartridges. Rather, they use green gas or propane for propellant to fire the airsoft pellets. The impact on the airsoft battlefield and green gas weapon efficiency is practically the same as CO2 handguns with the guns shooting up to about 300+ FPS. Shots are efficiently fired in semi-automatic or fully-automatic shooting modes and can accurately hit targets at very short to mid-range ranges.
The propane gas is kept in the pistol’s mag that can usually hold in-between 15 to 20+ BBs depending on the pistol type. A series of valves, rubber gaskets, and seals keep the gas pressurized in the mag until the handgun’s trigger is pulled.
When using a green gas pistol on the airsoft field as a secondary or main weapon, extra pistol mags are recommended for quickly reloading and engaging opponents. Having extra magazines on-hand helps you re-engage in the action in the course of firefights or while sweeping buildings in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fighting.
Green gas handguns are perfect for CQB at airsoft fields given that rifles and full-sized AEGs are normally not allowed to be used for indoor engagements. This is a safety standard due to the close range proximity of gamers during the shooting engagements and the potential for players to be injured. While green gas handguns still fire airsoft BBs at about 300 FPS, the shorter handgun barrel aids to keep the joules and energy moving the BB at a decreased level compared to airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and other long guns.
About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are two different varieties of green gas airsoft handguns. There are green gas blowback handguns or GBBs and non-blowback pistols. The green gas non-blowback airsoft handguns have a stationary slide which does not move.
About GBB and Green Gas Limits
Due to the fact that the green gas or propane is housed in the pistol mag using rubber seals and silicone gaskets, the cold can negatively affect these seals and allow the stored gas to leak out before shooting. This lack of pressure can cause the airsoft BBs to simply land a few feet (like 10 feet in the cold ) when the green gas handgun would usually shoot BBs over 100+ foot distances in warmer temps).
One solution to this issue is to keep the GBB handgun mags warmer by placing them next to your body before airsoft game play. This can help to heat up the rubber gaskets and better seal in the green gas. If you really want to use a reputable airsoft handgun in the cold, it might also be better to check out a CO2 variation of your preferred handgun. The CO2 cylinders come sealed and the gun will shoot better in sub-freezing conditions and while playing in the snow.
Spring Airsoft Pistol Facts
Spring airsoft pistols are powered by strong springs that propel the BBs down the handgun barrel. They are generally able to only shoot one BB at a time. The manual action of reloading, shooting, and cocking spring guns makes the fire rate much slower than CO2 and GBB handguns. This makes spring airsoft pistols interesting to use, but they are usually less practical when shooting at competitors on the airsoft field with upgraded weapons and fully automatic airsoft AEG assault rifles and CO2, green gas, or GBB airsoft pistols.
Spring airsoft guns work most effectively in springer battles where game players can solely use comparable, single shot spring handguns or as a close quarters combat backup weapon for CQB buildings and MOUT sites when you can frequently sneak up to other airsoft players to get an assured one-shot-one-kill. In the latter case, a quick 2nd followup shot is not required due to the fact that the other opponent is already hit by the first BB and out of the game or running back to respawn. When engaging multiple opponents given that the spring gun simply shoots as quick as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB manually, be cautious.
About Spring Handgun Performance
Spring pistols are quite effective under the right conditions during airsoft games. Spring handguns can commonly fire up to 120 feet or farther with 0.12 gram BBs but precision decreases rapidly.
Details About AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Sidearms
AEG airsoft sidearms or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are also an option to bring into the field as a backup gun on the airsoft field. These automatic electric handguns are often powered by mini stick batteries in the pistol’s butt. They function much like an AEG rifle and use pressurized air forced through electrically cycled pistons, cylinders, and gearboxes to propel airsoft BBs quickly and very quickly at that.
AEG pistol magazines normally can hold around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The pistols can shoot airsoft BBs right up to around 300 FPS when loaded with 0.12 gram airsoft BBs or 200 to 250 FPS using 0.20g airsoft BBs. The electrically powered gearbox system can shoot around 700+ BBs per minute which depends if you have enough spare mags to reload the gun and the battery maintains its charge that long. These pistols can accurately shoot airsoft BBs at about 150 foot ranges.
AEG Handgun Quality and Efficiency
AEG pistol quality has actually risen considerably over the last few years. The earliest gen guns were a bit undependable and sketchy, but the newer designs have the problems worked out and make effective airsoft backup guns. They can be upgraded with maximized mag storage capacities together with accommodating more powerful batteries.
A substantial benefit of using an AEG pistol is that you have the power to rewire the connectors to use a larger capacity battery. Depending on the AEG handgun style, you can get a large output in functionality by using a two cell Lipo battery (2S Lipo) as an alternative for the stock battery.
Which Airsoft Handgun is Right for Me to Play with?
If you have over one-hundred dollars to spend on your airsoft handgun, evaluate a GBB pistol or AEG pistol. If you have in-between fifty to one-hundred dollars to spend, look at a CO2 handgun or more affordable GBB handgun. If you have less than fifty dollars, you can still find a long lasting airsoft handgun to use for the handgun games by checking out lower end pistols and by trading with players on the used gun market.
