Airsoft Pistol Design Additional Info
Find out about airsoft guns like pistols and how you can use them as backup guns or as main weapons on the airsoft playing field. Practicing your accuracy and getting the ideal sidearm can be a game changer in blasting your shots. Handguns, naturally, are diminished range airsoft weapons. They are frequently made after firearm guns or copies of actual handguns. A lot of airsoft pistols are fully licensed editions of their real-world gun equivalents. These airsoft guns can function (short of shooting bullets) in the same ways and visually look similarly to the real guns they are modeled around while firing airsoft BBs in place of actual bullets.
There are a number of types of airsoft pistols consisting of CO2, green gas or propane (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric pistols. Each of these varieties of sidearms has positives and negatives related to them. Finding out about the varieties of airsoft sidearms allows you to decide which type is right for you and your airsoft game play style.
Details About CO2 Airsoft Sidearms
CO2 airsoft handguns are one of the most long-lasting and popular kinds of pistols. They are all-weather weapons working well in many kinds of weather and environments. These pistols use high pressure CO2 gas to move airsoft BBs down the weapon barrel. The CO2 cartridge is normally located in the gun’s magazine inside the handle.
These forms of airsoft handguns are exceptional for airsoft games in colder weather since the high pressure CO2 gas is less sensitive to FPS decreases with temperature. This fact provides excellent FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the cold weather for instance where other types of airsoft handguns like green gas cease to work or hardly shoot BBs.
Information About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cylinders
CO2 airsoft guns are powered by standard 12 gram CO2 cylinders. These cartridges resemble a metal cylinder and contain high pressured CO2 gas composed of a single carbon atom and two oxygen atoms, as a result the molecular formula is “C + O2 “. These atoms are attached in the following order “O= C =O”. The gas is kept in the 12 gram cylinders under very high pressure of about ~ 800psi that correlates to 55bar.
The cartridges come sealed to keep the CO2 gas securely inside, but the moment they are opened (shooting them in an airsoft pistol 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 pistol target practice and use up the rest of the additional gas.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges can be stored for a longtime. They have a manufacturer’s expiration date normally listed on the box or cartridge, however they will likely stay pressurized for an extended period of time past this date if the cartridge seals are not tampered with.
Info About Green Gas Airsoft Handguns
Green gas airsoft sidearms function similarly to CO2 pistols, however they do not use CO2 cartridges. Alternatively, they use green gas or propane gas for propellant to shoot 6mm airsoft BBs. The outcome on gameplay and green gas sidearm functionality is almost the same as CO2 pistols with the guns shooting up to 300+ FPS. Shots are rapidly fired in semi-automatic or automatic firing modes and precisely hit targets at shorter to mid-range ranges.
The green gas is kept in the handgun’s airsoft mag that can typically hold in-between 15 to 20+ BBs based on the pistol design. A series of valves, rubber gaskets, and silicone o-rings keep the gas pressurized in the magazine till the handgun’s trigger is squeezed.
When bringing a green gas sidearm on the airsoft field or arena as a backup or main weapon, additional mags are advised for rapidly reloading and engaging the op force. Having additional mags allows you to get back in the action in the middle of firefights or while clearing buildings in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room battles.
Green gas handguns are excellent for CQB at airsoft fields considering rifles and full-sized AEGs are typically not authorized to be used during indoor game play. This is a safety rule due to the close range distance of players during shooting engagements. While green gas handguns can still fire airsoft BBs at about 300 FPS, the short pistol barrel aids to keep the joules and energy shooting the BB lower compared to AEG airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and other long guns.
Thinking About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are 2 different styles of green gas airsoft pistols. There are green gas blowback pistols 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 Issues
Due to the fact that the green gas or propane is kept in the handgun magazine using rubber seals, o-rings, and gaskets, cold temps can affect these seals and allow the gas to leak out before shooting. This can make the airsoft BBs to only shoot a number of feet (like 10 feet in cold temps ) when the green gas pistol would usually shoot airsoft BBs over 100+ feet in warmer weather conditions).
One option to fix this issue is to make the GBB handgun mags warmer by positioning them inside your jacket next to your body just before the game play. This can help to warm the seals and better seal in the green gas. It might also be worth getting a CO2 version of your preferred pistol if you actually prefer to play airsoft with a reliable airsoft pistol in the cold. The CO2 cylinders come sealed and the gun shoots far better in sub-freezing conditions and while playing in the snow.
Spring Airsoft Handgun Details
Spring airsoft guns are powered by powerful springs with irregular pitches that launch the BBs down the handgun barrel. They are normally single-shot. The manual functioning of firing, cocking, and reloading spring airsoft guns makes the fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB handguns. This makes spring guns entertaining to use, but they are usually less efficient when engaging opponents on the airsoft field with upgraded rifles, auto airsoft AEG rifles, SMGs, sniper rifles, and CO2 or GBB airsoft handguns.
Spring sidearms and guns work the best in springer battles where players can just use similar, single shot spring guns or as a close quarters combat weapon for CQB buildings when you can usually surprise other airsoft participants to get an assured one-shot-one-kill. In the latter situation, a rapid 2nd follow-up shot will not be needed since the other opponent is already hit by the airsoft BB and out of the game play or going back to respawn. When engaging multiple enemies since the spring airsoft gun only shoots as quickly as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB by hand, be cautious.
About Spring Pistol Effectiveness
Spring guns are remarkably useful under the ideal conditions. Spring handguns can often shoot accurately up to 120 feet or more with 0.12 gram BBs but accuracy decreases rapidly.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Pistols
AEG airsoft handguns or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are definitely a good choice to use as a secondary gun on the airsoft field. These automatic electric handguns are normally powered by mini stick batteries in the gun’s handle. They operate much like an AEG SMG and use pressurized air forced through electrically cycled cylinders and gearboxes to shoot airsoft BBs quickly and very quickly at that.
AEG pistol mags normally hold around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The pistols can fire airsoft BBs up to around 300 FPS using 0.12g airsoft BBs or around 200 to 250 FPS when loaded with 0.20 gram airsoft BBs. The electrical gearbox system can shoot around 700+ BBs per minute assuming you have enough spare magazines to maintain the ammo supply and the battery holds out that long. These pistols can accurately shoot airsoft BBs at about 150 foot ranges.
AEG Pistol Quality and Efficiency
AEG handgun quality has increased significantly in recent years. The early gen guns were a little bit undependable and sketchy, however the new designs have most of the deficiencies worked out and make reliable airsoft backup weapons. They can be improved with enhanced mag capacities along with accommodating bigger batteries.
A significant benefit of using an AEG pistol is that you have the capability to rewire the battery connections to use a more substantial battery. Depending on the AEG handgun style, you can gain a sizable output in functionality by employing a 2 cell Lipo battery (2S Lipo) rather than the stock battery.
Which Airsoft Handgun is Best for Me?
If you have more than one-hundred dollars to use to buy your airsoft pistol, you may want to consider a GBB handgun or automatic electric pistol. If you have around $50 to $100 to invest, review a good quality CO2 pistol or more affordable GBB pistol. If your gun budget is lower, you can still find a long lasting airsoft pistol to use for the pistol games.
