Information About the Styles of Airsoft Handguns
Learn more about airsoft handguns and how you can use them as backup guns or as primary weapons on the airsoft playing field. Practicing your shot accuracy and getting the ideal pistol can make an impact in hitting your shots. Sidearms, naturally, are shorter range airsoft guns. They are normally produced after real-world sidearms or copies of authentic handguns. Many different airsoft handguns are fully licensed adaptations of their real world pistol counterparts. These airsoft guns can visually appear and function (short of shooting bullets) in the same ways identically to the real guns they are designed around while shooting airsoft BBs as opposed to authentic bullets.
There are a variety of airsoft handguns such as CO2, propane or green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric handguns. Each of these styles of sidearms come with positives and negatives connected with them. Learning about the styles of airsoft pistols allows you to figure out which type is right for you and your airsoft play style.
CO2 Airsoft Pistols
CO2 airsoft guns are one of the most common and long-lasting types of handguns. These handguns use CO2 stored in small cylinders to move airsoft BBs out of the handgun barrel.
These kinds of airsoft guns are exceptional for playing airsoft in cold and snowy weather given that the compressed CO2 gas is less prone to FPS decreases caused by temperature. This fact offers very good FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the cold for instance where other sorts of airsoft guns like green gas cease to function or barely fire BBs.
Information About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cylinders
CO2 airsoft sidearms are powered by typical 12 gram CO2 cartridges. These cartridges look like a chrome metal cylinder and contain high pressure CO2 gas made up of one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms, consequently the molecular formula comes out to be “C + O2 “. These atoms are bonded in the following alignment “O= C =O”. The gas is kept in the 12 gram cylinders under extremely high pressure of roughly ~ 800psi which translates to 55bar.
The cartridges come sealed to keep the CO2 gas securely within, but once they are opened (shooting them in an airsoft weapon breaks the 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 extra gas.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges can be stored for a longtime. They have the supplier’s best used by date normally noted on the box or cylinder, however, they may maintain pressure for a very long period of time past this date if the cartridge seal is not punctured.
Green Gas Airsoft Handgun Details
Green gas airsoft handguns function similarly to CO2 guns, however they do not use CO2 cartridges. As an alternative, they use green gas or propane for propellant to shoot the airsoft pellets. The result on gameplay and green gas sidearm performance is just about the same as CO2 handguns with the guns shooting up to about 300+ FPS. Shots are rapidly fired in semi-automatic or fully-automatic firing modes and accurate at short to mid-range distances.
The propane is kept in the pistol’s airsoft magazine which can often hold in-between 15 to 20+ BBs based on the handgun type. A series of valves, rubberized gaskets, and seals keep the gas stored in the magazine before the pistol’s trigger is pulled.
When playing with a green gas handgun on the airsoft field as a main or secondary weapon, extra mags are highly recommended for rapidly reloading. Having extra mags helps you get back in the action in the middle of firefights or while clearing structures in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room battles.
Green gas pistols are excellent for CQB at airsoft fields considering that rifles and full-sized AEGs are usually not authorized to be used during indoor gameplay. This is an essential safety regulation because of the close quarters proximity of players during the shooting engagements and the potential for players to be injured. While green gas pistols still fire airsoft BBs at about 300 FPS, the short handgun barrel assists to keep the joules and energy forcing the BB at a decreased level compared to AEG airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and other long guns.
Thinking About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are two 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 pistols have a stationary slide which does not move.
About GBB and Green Gas Limitations
Because the green gas or propane is kept in the magazine by rubber o-rings, seals, and silicone gaskets, cold temps can influence these seals and cause the stored gas to leak out prior to shooting the handgun. This lack of pressure can make the airsoft BBs to merely land a number of feet (like 10 feet in cold weather ) when it would normally shoot airsoft BBs over 100+ feet in warmer temperatures).
One option to this problem is to keep the GBB handgun magazines warmer by holding them next to your body or by a heater before the airsoft game play. If you really desire to play with a reputable airsoft handgun in the cold, it may also be worth getting a CO2 variation of your favorite pistol.
Spring Airsoft Pistol Info
Spring airsoft handguns are powered by powerful springs that propel the airsoft BBs out of the gun barrel. They are typically only able to shoot one BB. The manual functions of shooting, reloading, and cocking spring handguns makes the fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB handguns. When facing airsoft players on the airsoft field with advanced weaponry like automatic airsoft AEG assault rifles, SMGs, sniper rifles, and CO2, green gas, or GBB airsoft pistols, this can make spring guns fun to use, however less effective.
Spring airsoft guns work best in springer wars where players can just use similar, single shot spring weapons or as a close quarters backup gun for CQB buildings and MOUT sites when you can often surprise other airsoft game players to get a guaranteed one-shot-one-kill. In the latter situation, a rapid second followup shot isn’t called for considering that the other person is already hit by the airsoft BB and out of the gameplay or heading back to respawn. When engaging several players because the spring gun simply fires as fast as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB by hand, be careful.
About Spring Handgun Efficiency
Spring guns are very efficient under the appropriate conditions. Spring pistols can generally shoot up to 120 feet or farther with 0.12 gram BBs but the ability to hit targets reduces rapidly.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Sidearm Details
AEG airsoft handguns or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are definitely an option to carry as a secondary weapon on the airsoft field. These automatic electric handguns are often powered by mini stick batteries in the weapon’s grip. They function similar to an AEG rifle and use pressured air with electrically cycled cylinders, pistons, and gearboxes to fire airsoft BBs quickly and rapidly.
AEG handgun mags normally can hold around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The handguns can fire airsoft BBs up to about 300 FPS with 0.12 gram airsoft BBs or 200 to 250 FPS using 0.20g airsoft BBs.
AEG Pistol Quality and Performance
AEG pistol quality has actually increased significantly recently. The earliest gen guns were a bit questionable and unreliable, but the newer versions have the deficiencies worked out and make efficient airsoft backup weapons. They can be further upgraded with enhanced magazine storage capacities in addition to accommodating bigger batteries.
A large advantage of using an AEG pistol is that you have the power to rewire the adapters to use a larger capacity battery. Depending on the AEG handgun style, you can get a substantial increase in functionality by using a 2 cell Lipo battery (like an 2S Lipo) rather than the stock battery.
Which Airsoft Pistol is Right for Me to Play with?
Deciding on the most ideal airsoft pistol for you depends on how much you can afford, how much you want to play airsoft with it, and where you plan to play. If you can afford over one-hundred dollars to spend on your airsoft pistol, check out a green gas blowback or GBB handgun or AEP pistol. These kinds of pistols are normally the top of the line, have the very best build qualities, and are usually a really good investment. If you can afford around more than $50 but less than $100 to use for your gun, look into a CO2 handgun or more affordable GBB pistol. These mid-tier guns will still finish the job and are resilient sidearms. If you have less than $50, try to find a low end CO2 or springer pistol. You can still get a dependable airsoft pistol to use for the pistol games.
