Airsoft Pistol Design Information
Find out about airsoft handguns 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 best sidearm can be a game changer in improving your shots. Sidearms, naturally, are lower range airsoft weapons. They are frequently designed after genuine guns or clones of authentic handguns. Many airsoft sidearms are completely certified releases of their actual pistol equivalents. These airsoft guns can visually appear and function (without shooting bullets) in the same ways similarly to the real guns they are modeled around while shooting airsoft BBs instead of authentic bullets.
There are several kinds of airsoft pistols consisting of CO2, propane or green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric gun handguns. Each of these kinds of sidearms has benefits and differences associated with them. Learning about the kinds of airsoft handguns allows you to decide which type is right for you and your airsoft game play style.
About CO2 Airsoft Handguns
CO2 airsoft pistols are one of the most durable and standard kinds of handguns. They are all season, all weather pistols and function well in a lot of types of weather, temperatures, and climates. These pistols use pressurized CO2 gas to move airsoft BBs down the gun barrel. The CO2 cartridge stores the gas and is usually housed in the pistol’s magazine in the handle.
These types of airsoft pistols are good for playing in cold and snowy weather conditions since the pressurized CO2 gas is less vulnerable to performance variations by low temperatures. This provides exceptional FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the winter season for instance where other kinds of airsoft guns like green gas cease to function or hardly shoot BBs.
Information About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridges
CO2 airsoft pistols are powered by common 12 gram CO2 cartridges. These cartridges resemble a metallic cylinder and contain high-pressure CO2 gas consisting of a single carbon atom and two oxygen atoms, and so the molecular formula comes out to be “C + O2 “. These atoms are bound in the following sequence “O= C =O”. The gas is stored in the 12 gram cylinders under very high pressure of roughly ~ 800psi that correlates to 55bar.
They come sealed to keep the CO2 gas safely within, but once they are opened (firing them inside of an airsoft gun breaks the seal) they will start to lose pressure if they are left unused. If the airsoft games end and you still have CO2 gas left, use the opportunity to do some handgun target practice and use up the rest of the extra gas.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges have a long storage life. They have the manufacturer’s best used by date normally marked on the package or cartridge cylinder, but they will probably stay pressurized for a prolonged period of time past this date if the cartridge seals are not damaged.
Green Gas Airsoft Pistol Info
Green gas airsoft pistols are similar to CO2 pistols, but they use green gas or propane instead of CO2 cartridges. The impact on the airsoft battlefield and green gas weapon performance is practically the same as CO2 pistols with the guns around 300+ FPS.
The green gas is kept in the pistol’s mag and can frequently hold around 15 to 20+ airsoft BBs based on the pistol style. A bunch of valves, rubberized stoppers, and seals keep the propane gas housed in the magazine up until the handgun’s trigger is squeezed. It is a great habit to refill and top off the propane supply in your pistol mag each time you load it into the gun. Pistol-wielding gamers can additionally bring excess bottles of propane in the field for refilling mags between lulls in the battle or in-between game play.
When using a green gas sidearm on the airsoft field as a backup or main weapon, additional handgun mags are advised for rapidly reloading. Having extra mags on-hand 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 suitable for CQB at airsoft fields because rifles, long guns, and full-sized AEGs are generally not allowed to be used for indoor gameplay. This is a safety regulation because of the close quarters proximity of airsoft players during the shooting engagements and the potential for players to be hurt. While green gas pistols can still fire airsoft BBs at about 300 FPS, the short handgun barrel assists to keep the joules and energy shooting the BB lower compared to AEG airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and other long guns.
About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are two different types of green gas airsoft pistols. There are green gas blowback pistols or GBBs. The green gas non-blowback airsoft handguns have a stationary slide which does not move.
About GBB and Green Gas Limitations
Due to the fact that the green gas or propane gas is stored in the magazine using rubber seals, o-rings, and silicone gaskets, cold temperatures can affect these seals and allow the stored gas to leak out before shooting the handgun. The lack of pressure can cause the airsoft BBs to just land a couple of feet away (like 10 feet in cold weather ) when the pistol would typically shoot BBs over 100+ foot distances in warmer weather).
One option to fix this problem is to keep the GBB handgun magazines warmer by holding them next to a heater or by your body just before the airsoft game play. This can help to heat up the seals and better seal in the green gas. If you really prefer to play with a reliable airsoft handgun in the cold, it might also be worth buying a CO2 variation of your preferred handgun. The CO2 cylinders come sealed and the gun shoots better in sub-freezing temps and while playing in the snow.
Spring Airsoft Pistols
Spring airsoft guns are powered by strong springs that launch the airsoft BBs out of the handgun barrel. They are normally only able to shoot one BB. The manual functions of cocking, reloading, and shooting spring handguns makes the fire rate much slower than CO2 and GBB handguns. When confronting airsoft players on the airsoft field with upgraded rifles like fully automatic airsoft AEG rifles and CO2 or GBB airsoft pistols, this makes them enjoyable to use, but less efficient.
Spring guns perform best in springer wars where players can only use related, single shot spring guns or as a transition backup gun for CQB buildings and MOUT sites when you can often sneak up to other airsoft players to get a guaranteed one-shot-one-kill. In the latter scenario, a quick second followup shot isn’t really needed since the other person is now hit by the first BB and out of the gameplay or moving back to respawn. Beware when fighting numerous opponents due to the fact that the weapon only shoots as quickly as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB by hand.
About Spring Handgun Effectiveness
Spring guns are quite useful under the best scenarios and airsoft games. Spring handguns can commonly shoot accurately up to 120 feet or farther with 0.12g BBs but the ability to engage targets reduces quickly.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Pistol Details
AEG airsoft handguns or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are definitely a good choice to carry as a secondary weapon on the airsoft field. These automatic electric pistols are commonly powered by mini stick batteries in the pistol’s grip. They function just like an AEG SMG and use pressured air forced through electrically cycled pistons, cylinders, and gearboxes to shoot airsoft BBs out of the barrel and rapidly.
AEG handgun mags typically hold around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The handguns can launch airsoft BBs up to about 300 FPS using 0.12g airsoft BBs or 200 to 250 FPS using 0.20 gram airsoft BBs.
AEG Pistol Quality and Performance
AEG pistol quality has increased significantly recently. The early gen AEP guns were a little bit undependable and questionable, but the newer versions have most of the issues resolved and make effective airsoft backup weapons. They can be improved with increased magazine storage capacities and also accommodating more powerful batteries.
A big advantage of using an AEG pistol is that you have the power to rewire the adapters to use a larger battery. Depending on the AEG pistol design, you can gain a substantial output in functionality by employing a 2 cell Lipo battery (like an 2S Lipo) as an alternative for the stock battery.
What Airsoft Pistol is Right for Me to Buy?
Choosing the right airsoft pistol for you depends upon how much you can afford to spend, how much you would like to play airsoft using it, and where you decide to play. Take a look at a GBB green gas pistol or AEP pistol if you have over one-hundred dollars to spend on your airsoft handgun. These kinds of pistols are normally the top-tier guns, have the most effective performance, and can be a good investment. If you have in-between $50 to $100 to use for your gun, take a look at a CO2 handgun or a cheaper GBB pistol. Middle of the road guns like these will still do the job and can be pretty tough sidearms. Look for a low end CO2 or spring pistol if you have less than fifty dollars. You can still buy a well-built airsoft handgun to use for the handgun games.
