How to Choose an Airsoft Pistol
Find info about airsoft sidearms, pistols, and handguns and how you can use them as backup weapons or as main weapons on the airsoft playing field. Practicing your shot accuracy and getting the best pistol can make a big difference in hitting your shots. Handguns, by nature, are shorter range airsoft weapons. They are usually made after authentic handguns or clones of real pistols. Lots of airsoft pistols are fully certified variations of their real gun equivalents. These airsoft guns can appear and run in the same ways identically to the real guns they are modeled after while shooting airsoft BBs rather than real-world bullets.
There are a variety of airsoft pistols consisting of CO2, propane or green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric gun pistols. Each of these styles of pistols have negatives and positives associated with them. Finding out about the kinds of airsoft handguns lets you decide which type is right for you and your airsoft game play style.
CO2 Airsoft Pistols
CO2 airsoft handguns are one of the most dependable and popular types of sidearms. These handguns use pressurized CO2 gas to shoot airsoft BBs out of the gun barrel.
These styles of airsoft pistols are very good for airsoft games in cold weather given that the compressed CO2 gas is less sensitive to performance decreases by temperature levels. This provides good FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the winter season for instance where other varieties of guns like green gas stuffer from low performance or barely fire airsoft BBs.
Information About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridge Cylinders
CO2 airsoft pistols are powered by standard 12 gram CO2 cartridge cylinders. These cartridges look similar to a metal cylinder and contain high pressured CO2 gas made up of one carbon atom and 2 oxygen atoms, hence the molecular formula comes out to be “C + O2 “. These atoms are connected in the following alignment “O= C =O”. The gas is kept in the 12 gram cylinders under very high pressure of near ~ 800psi which correlates to 55bar.
The CO2 gas cartridge cylinders cannot be used multiple times and you can normally buy them in bundles of 12, 20, 50, or 100 12 gram CO2 cartridge sets. They come sealed to retain the CO2 gas safely and securely inside, but once they are punctured (firing them in an airsoft pistol breaks the cartridge seal) they will start to lose pressure if they are left unused. You ought to attempt to use up the entire CO2 cartridge the exact same day you open the seal. Use the opportunity to do some pistol target practice and use up the rest of the additional gas if the airsoft games end and you still have CO2 gas left. There is no gas level sign on the cartridge so you need to shoot up until the handgun stops firing.
CO2 cartridges can be stored for a longtime if they are kept sealed. They come with the maker’s expiry date usually marked on the box or cylinder, however they will probably stay pressurized for a long period of time past this date if the cartridge seal is not broken.
Green Gas and Propane Airsoft Sidearm Facts
Green gas airsoft handguns are similar to CO2 handguns, however they do not use CO2 cartridges. Rather, they use green gas or propane for propellant to fire 6mm airsoft pellets. The operational impact on game play and green gas handgun efficiency is practically the same as CO2 pistols with the weapons shooting up to about 300+ feet-per-second (FPS). Shots are efficiently fired in automatic or semi-automatic firing modes and can hit targets at shorter to mid-range ranges.
The green gas is held in the pistol’s airsoft mag which can commonly hold in-between 15 to 20+ airsoft BBs based on the handgun type. A series of valves, rubberized gaskets, and silicone o-rings keep the gas stored in the magazine until the handgun’s trigger is pulled.
When carrying a green gas pistol on the airsoft field as a main or secondary weapon, additional pistol mags are encouraged for quickly reloading and getting back into the game. Having additional mags helps you re engage in the action in the middle of firefights or while clearing structures in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fighting.
Green gas pistols are great for CQB at airsoft fields given that rifles and full-sized AEGs are usually not authorized to be used for indoor game play. This is a safety guideline due to the close quarters proximity of gamers during the shooting engagements and the potential for players to be injured. While green gas pistols can still shoot airsoft BBs at around 300 FPS, the short handgun barrel assists to keep the joules and energy propelling the BB at a decreased level compared to AEGs, airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and long guns.
About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are two various types of green gas airsoft handguns. To start with there are green gas blowback pistols or GBBs. These pistols run like a genuine handgun with the gun’s slide “blowing back” and moving with every shot. Each time a brand-new airsoft BB is loaded into the chamber, the gas causes the slide to cycle. The result is extremely cool, but the guns typically cost more and likely have more to break. The green gas non-blowback airsoft handguns have a stationary slide which does not cycle. The non-blowback weapons commonly cost less than GBBs. Performance is around the same when comparing the two styles of green gas pistols.
About GBB and Green Gas Issues
Because the green gas or propane gas is stored in the pistol magazine by using rubber seals, o-rings, and gaskets, cold weather can influence these gaskets and cause the gas to escape prior to shooting the pistol. This lack of pressure can make the airsoft BBs to only shoot a number of feet away (like 10 feet in cold temps ) when the green gas handgun would usually shoot airsoft BBs over 100+ feet in warmer temperatures).
One strategy to this problem is to make the GBB pistol mags warmer by placing them next to your body or by a heater just before the airsoft game play. If you really want to play with a dependable airsoft pistol in the cold weather, it might additionally be worth getting a CO2 style of your preferred pistol.
About Spring Airsoft Sidearms
Spring airsoft guns are powered by strong coil springs that propel the airsoft BBs out of the handgun barrel. They are usually able to only shoot one BB. The manual action of shooting, cocking, and reloading spring airsoft guns makes the weapon’s fire rate much slower than CO2 and GBB handguns. This makes spring guns interesting to use, yet they can be less successful when shooting at challengers on the airsoft field with upgraded airsoft guns like fully automatic airsoft AEG rifles, sniper rifles, and CO2 or GBB airsoft handguns.
Spring handguns work the best in springer battles where opponents can exclusively use related, single shot spring pistols or as an alternative backup weapon for CQB environments when you can usually quietly sneak up on other airsoft participants to get an assured one-shot-one-kill. In the latter situation, a fast second follow-up shot will not be called for given that the other player is now hit by the airsoft BB and out of the game play or going back to respawn. When engaging several attackers since the spring airsoft gun just fires as quickly as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB manually, be cautious.
About Spring Handgun Effectiveness
Spring pistols are extremely useful under the most ideal circumstances. Spring handguns can typically shoot up to 120 feet or farther with 0.12 gram BBs however precision reduces rapidly.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Sidearms
AEG airsoft handguns or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are also a viable option to bring as a secondary weapon on the airsoft field. These automatic electric pistols are typically powered by mini stick batteries in the gun’s grip. They operate similar to an AEG gun and use compressed air with electrically cycled gearboxes, pistons, and cylinders to propel airsoft BBs quickly and very rapidly at that.
AEG pistol mags normally hold about 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The pistols can shoot airsoft BBs up to around 300 FPS with 0.12g airsoft BBs or 200 to 250 FPS using 0.20 gram airsoft BBs.
AEG Handgun Quality and Efficiency
AEG handgun quality has actually grown considerably in the last few years. The earliest generations were a bit sketchy and unreliable, but the newer versions have most of the bugs resolved and make reliable airsoft secondary weapons. They can be improved with maximized magazine storage capacities together with accommodating larger batteries.
A substantial benefit of buying an AEG pistol is that you have the ability to rewire the battery wires to use an enhanced battery with higher mAh. Based on the AEG handgun type, you are able to get a big leap in performance and fire rate using a two cell Lipo battery (2S Lipo) as an alternative to the stock battery. Be careful with customizing the elements and wires because you have to take into consideration the volts, mAh, and electrical loads of the battery. If you have modding questions, ask a pro airsoft specialist at your local airsoft store or shop.
What Airsoft Sidearm is Best for Me?
If you have over one-hundred dollars to spend on your airsoft pistol, you may want to consider a green gas blowback pistol or automatic electric handgun. If you have between $50 to $100 to spend, evaluate a good quality CO2 pistol or more affordable GBB pistol. If you have $50 or less, you can still get a hold of a long lasting airsoft handgun to use for the pistol games by checking out lower end pistols and by shopping the used airsoft gun market.
