Information About Airsoft Handgun Kinds
Find information about airsoft sidearms and how you can use them as backup guns or as primary weapons on the airsoft playing field. Getting the right handgun and practicing with it can make all the difference in nailing your shots. Handguns, by nature, are diminished range airsoft guns. They are frequently manufactured after firearm sidearms or look-alikes of authentic handguns. A lot of airsoft handguns are fully certified releases of their real world weapon equivalents. These airsoft guns can look and function (short of shooting bullets) in the same ways almost identically to the real guns they are modeled around while firing airsoft BBs instead of real bullets.
There are several varieties of airsoft pistols consisting of CO2, propane or green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric sidearms. Each of these styles of sidearms have benefits and differences connected with them. Learning about the kinds of airsoft pistols allows you to choose which type is right for you and your airsoft game play style.
CO2 Airsoft Sidearm Details
CO2 airsoft pistols are one of the most sturdy and popular types of handguns. These pistols use pressurized CO2 gas to shoot airsoft BBs out of the gun barrel.
These forms of airsoft handguns are exceptional for playing airsoft in cold and snowy temperatures because the pressurized CO2 gas is stored in the sealed cylinders and less sensitive to variation with low temperatures. This fact provides good FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the winter months for example where other kinds of airsoft handguns like green gas stuffer from low performance or hardly shoot airsoft BBs.
About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridges
CO2 airsoft pistols are powered by common 12 gram CO2 cylinders. These cartridges look like a shiny steel cylinder and hold high pressured CO2 gas made up of 1 carbon atom and a couple of oxygen atoms, therefore the molecular formula comes out to be “C + O2 “. These atoms are attached in the following sequence “O= C =O”. The gas is kept in the 12 gram cylinders under really high pressure of around ~ 800psi which correlates to 55bar.
The CO2 gas cartridge cylinders are not multiple-use 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, once they are punctured (shooting them in an airsoft pistol breaks the cartridge seal) the cartridges will start to lose pressure if they are left unused. You need to try to use up the entire CO2 cartridge the same day you open the seal. If the airsoft matches end and you still have CO2 gas leftover, use the chance to do some pistol target practice and burn up the rest of the surplus gas. There is no gas level indicator on the cartridge so you have to shoot until the gun stops shooting BBs.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges have a long storage life. They come with the maker’s best used by date normally noted on the package or cartridge cylinder, however, they will stay pressurized for a prolonged period of time past this date if the cartridge seal is not damaged.
Green Gas and Propane Airsoft Sidearm Information
Green gas airsoft handguns are similar to CO2 pistols, however they use green gas or propane instead of CO2 cartridges. The result on the airsoft battlefield and green gas weapon efficiency is almost the very same as CO2 handguns with the weapons shooting up to 300+ FPS.
The propane gas is kept in the pistol’s magazine which can commonly hold between 15 to 20+ airsoft BBs depending on the handgun design. A series of valves, rubber gaskets, and o-rings keep the gas stored in the magazine until the handgun’s trigger is pulled.
When bringing a green gas handgun on the airsoft field as a primary or secondary gun, bringing extra handgun magazines is strongly recommended for quickly reloading and engaging the op force. Having extra magazines on-hand helps you reengage 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 optimal for CQB at airsoft fields considering rifles and full-sized AEGs are typically not enabled to be used for indoor game play. This is an essential safety regulation because of the close quarters proximity of gamers during the shooting engagements. While green gas pistols still shoot airsoft BBs at around 300 FPS, the shorter handgun barrel helps to keep the joules and energy pushing the BB at a decreased level compared to AEGs, sniper rifles, and long guns.
About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are two various forms of green gas airsoft handguns. First, there are green gas blowback handguns or GBBs. These handguns work like a genuine handgun with the gun’s slide “blowing back” and moving with every shot. The propane gas causes the slide to cycle each time when a fresh airsoft BB is chambered. This effect is extremely cool, however the handguns typically are more expensive and likely have more parts to break. The green gas non-blowback airsoft pistols have a fixed slide which does not cycle. The non-blowback pistols usually cost less than GBBs. Performance is around the same when comparing the two kinds of green gas handguns.
About GBB and Green Gas Issues
While green gas typically can be used effectively, it does have drawbacks. For example, when green gas guns are used in the winter in the snow or in cold weather (like lower 32 deg F). Given that the green gas or propane gas is stored in the weapon’s mag using rubber seals and gaskets, low temperatures can impair these seals and allow the gas to escape before firing the handgun. The decrease in pressure can cause the airsoft BBs to just shoot a few feet (like 10 feet in the cold ) when it would usually shoot BBs over 100+ foot distances in warmer weather conditions).
One solution to this issue is to keep the GBB pistol mags warmer by holding them near your body just before the airsoft game play. This can help to heat up the seals, gaskets, and valves and help to seal in the green gas. If you honestly desire to use a trustworthy airsoft handgun in the cold, it may also be worth checking out a CO2 variation of your preferred handgun. The CO2 cylinders come sealed and these guns shoot much better in sub-freezing conditions and while playing in the snow.
Spring Airsoft Sidearms
Spring airsoft pistols are powered by powerful springs with irregular pitches that launch the BBs out of the pistol’s barrel. The manual actions of cocking, reloading, and firing spring handguns makes the fire rate much slower than CO2 and GBB airsoft guns.
Spring airsoft guns work best in springer battles where players can just use similar, single shot spring weapons or as a transitional weapon for CQB environments when you can frequently sneak up to other airsoft game players to get a guaranteed one-shot-one-kill. In the latter circumstance, a rapid second follow-up shot isn’t required because the other opponent is now hit by the first shot and out of the game or moving back to respawn. Look out when attacking numerous adversaries considering the weapon just shoots as fast as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB by hand.
About Spring Pistol Performance
Spring guns are extremely useful under the proper game circumstances. Their FPS commonly chronos at about 250 FPS to 300 FPS with lighter 0.12 gram airsoft BBs. These guns usually fire the lighter weight airsoft BBs because the pitched springs are less powerful than other types of airsoft guns like rifles. Spring pistols can generally shoot up to 120 feet or more with 0.12 gram BBs however the ability to engage targets decreases rapidly. Shooting basic 0.20g weight airsoft BBs, you will very likely have a range of about 60 to 80 feet or less with enhanced accuracy.
About AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Sidearms
AEG airsoft handguns or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are definitely an option to use as a secondary weapon on the airsoft field. These automatic electric pistols are commonly powered by mini stick batteries in the weapon’s butt. They function similar to an AEG gun and use compressed air with electrically cycled gearboxes, pistons, and cylinders to fire airsoft BBs out of the barrel and very quickly at that.
AEG handgun magazines generally carry about 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The pistols can shoot airsoft BBs up to about 300 FPS when loaded with 0.12g airsoft BBs or 200 to 250 FPS when loaded with 0.20g airsoft BBs. The electric gearbox system can shoot around 700+ BBs per minute assuming you have enough magazines to reload (after every 20 to 30 rounds) and the battery lasts that long. These handguns can efficiently shoot airsoft BBs at about 150 foot distances.
AEG Pistol Quality and Efficiency
AEG handgun quality has risen substantially in the last few years. The earliest gens were a bit sketchy and unreliable, but the newer versions have most of the bugs resolved and make reliable airsoft secondary guns. They can be further modified with increased magazine storage capacities and also accommodating bigger batteries.
A significant benefit of carrying an AEG pistol is that you have the capacity to rewire the wires to use an enhanced battery. Based on the AEG pistol design, you can get a large jump in performance utilizing a 2 cell Lipo battery (2S Lipo) as a replacement for the standard battery. Take extra precautions when adjusting the components and the gun’s wires because you should take into account the volts, mAh, and electrical loads of the batteries. If you have customization concerns, ask a professional weapon tech at your closest airsoft store.
Which Airsoft Handgun is Best for Me to Play with?
Choosing the most ideal airsoft sidearm for you depends upon how much you can afford, how often you want to play airsoft using it, and where you plan to play. Consider a GBB green gas pistol or AEG pistol if you have more than $100 to spend on your airsoft handgun. These guns are normally the top-tier guns, have the best build qualities, and are usually a pretty good gun to get. Check out a CO2 pistol or cheaper green gas GBB handgun if you have between $50 to $100 to invest. Mid-tier guns like these will still work well and will be sturdy sidearms. If you have less than fifty dollars, find a lower end CO2 or spring pistol. You can still get a dependable airsoft pistol to use for the handgun airsoft guns.
