Airsoft Handgun Design Additional Info
Find out about airsoft sidearms and handguns and how you can use them as backup weapons or as primary weapons on the airsoft playing field. Getting the best sidearm and practicing with it can be a game changer in the accuracy of your shots. Sidearms, by nature, are lower range airsoft guns. They are often produced after actual sidearms or copies of genuine handguns. Many airsoft pistols are fully licensed versions of their real world gun counterparts. 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 blasting airsoft BBs in place of genuine bullets.
There are a variety of airsoft pistols including CO2, green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric gun pistols. Each of these types of handguns has positives and negatives associated with them. Learning more about the kinds of airsoft sidearms helps you decide which type is right for you and your airsoft gameplay style.
Details About CO2 Airsoft Handguns
CO2 airsoft guns are one of the most resilient and popular types of pistols. These pistols use CO2 stored in small cylinders to shoot airsoft BBs out of the handgun barrel.
These types of airsoft weapons are excellent for playing airsoft in cooler weather conditions given that the high pressure CO2 gas is stored in the sealed cylinders and less prone to performance variations by low temperatures. This offers great FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the wintertime for example where other varieties of airsoft guns like green gas stuffer from low performance or barely fire airsoft BBs.
Information About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridge Cylinders
CO2 airsoft handguns are powered by regular 12 gram CO2 cylinders. These cartridges resemble a shiny steel cylinder and contain high pressured CO2 gas composed of a single carbon atom and 2 oxygen atoms, hence the molecular formula is “C + O2 “. These atoms are connected in the following order “O= C =O”. The gas is held in the 12 gram cartridge cylinders under extremely high pressure of roughly ~ 800psi that translates to 55bar.
The CO2 cartridge cylinders cannot be refilled and you can typically order them in packs of 12, 20, 50, or 100 12 gram CO2 cartridges. They come sealed to keep the CO2 gas safely within, once they are punctured (firing them in an airsoft gun breaks the cartridge seal) cartridges will start to lose pressure if they are left unused. You need to try to dissipate the whole CO2 cartridge the same day you open the seal. Use the opportunity to do some handgun 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 until the handgun stops shooting.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges have a long storage life. They come with the manufacturer’s best used by date usually marked on the box or cartridge cylinder, however they may last for an extended period of time past this date if the cartridge seals are not punctured.
Green Gas Airsoft Sidearm Info
Green gas airsoft handguns are similar to CO2 pistols, but they do not use CO2 cartridges. Rather, they use green gas or propane for propellant to propel 6mm airsoft pellets. The operational impact on the battlefield and green gas pistol effectiveness is essentially the same as CO2 handguns with the weapons shooting up to 300+ feet per second. Shots are rapidly fired in semi-automatic or fully-automatic shooting modes and can hit targets at short to mid-range distances.
The green gas is stored in the handgun’s magazine and can commonly hold roughly 15 to 20+ BBs based on the gun style. A sequence of valves, rubberized stoppers, and seals keep the green gas housed in the pistol mag up to when the pistol’s trigger is pulled. It is a good plan to top off and refill the green gas reserves in the magazine each time you load it into the pistol. Pistol-wielding players can even take excess bottles of propane in the field for refilling magazines in-between breaks in the fight or in-between gameplay.
When bringing a green gas handgun on the airsoft field as a backup or main weapon, bringing extra mags is recommended for rapidly reloading and getting back into the game. Having additional magazines helps you reengage in the action in the middle of firefights or while clearing buildings in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fighting.
Green gas pistols are great for CQB at airsoft fields considering long guns and full-sized AEGs are typically not authorized to be used during indoor engagements. This is an essential safety rule due to the close range proximity of gamers during the shooting engagements and the potential for players to be injured. While green gas handguns can still shoot airsoft BBs at about 300 FPS, the short pistol barrel aids to keep the joules and energy forcing the BB lower compared to airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and other long guns.
Thinking About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are two various styles of green gas airsoft handguns. There are green gas blowback pistols or GBBs where the slide moves and non-blowback pistols. The green gas non-blowback airsoft pistols use a stationary slide which does not move.
About GBB and Green Gas Issues
While green gas typically functions extremely well on the airsoft field, it does have restrictions. This includes when they are played with in the winter airsoft games in the snow or in cold weather (like under 32 deg F). Given that the green gas or propane is kept in the mag using silicone seals and gaskets, cold temperatures can impact these seals and trigger the stored gas to seep out prior to shooting. The depressurized gas can cause the airsoft BBs to only shoot a few feet (like 10 feet in cold temps ) when it would normally shoot airsoft BBs over 100+ feet in warmer weather conditions).
One solution to this issue is to keep the GBB handgun magazines warmer by positioning them next to your body or near a heat source just before game play starts. If you absolutely desire to play with a reliable airsoft handgun in the cold, it may also be worth getting a CO2 variation of your favorite pistol.
Spring Airsoft Handgun Info
Spring airsoft pistols are powered by powerful springs with irregular pitches that propel the BBs out of the gun barrel. They are normally one shot only. The manual functioning of cocking, reloading, and firing spring pistols makes the weapon’s fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB handguns. When confronting airsoft players on the airsoft field with fully automatic airsoft AEG assault rifles and CO2, green gas, or GBB airsoft pistols, this makes spring airsoft guns entertaining to use, but less efficient.
Spring airsoft guns work most effectively in springer battles where airsoft players can solely use comparable, single shot spring weapons or as a transition backup gun for CQB buildings when you can usually surprise other airsoft opponents to get an assured one-shot-one-kill. In the latter scenario, a fast second followup shot will not be called for because the other person is already struck and out of the game or going back to respawn. Beware when engaging numerous airsoft players because the weapon only fires as fast as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB by hand.
About Spring Pistol Efficiency
Spring guns are very reliable under the best situations. Spring guns can normally shoot up to 120 feet or farther with 0.12 gram BBs however target accuracy decreases quickly.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Pistol Details
AEG airsoft pistols or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are definitely an option to use as a secondary weapon on the airsoft field. These automatic electric handguns are commonly powered by mini stick batteries in the pistol’s handle. They work much like an AEG SMG and use compressed air pumped through electrically cycled pistons, cylinders, and gearboxes to shoot airsoft BBs quickly and rapidly.
AEG pistol mags generally can carry around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The pistols can shoot airsoft BBs up to about 300 FPS with 0.12g airsoft BBs or 200 to 250 FPS with 0.20 gram airsoft BBs.
AEG Handgun Quality and Performance
AEG pistol quality has actually grown substantially over the last few years. The early gen guns were a bit unreliable and sketchy, but the latest models have most of the bugs resolved and make reliable airsoft backup weapons. They can be further modified with increased mag storage capacities along with accommodating larger batteries.
A massive benefit of using an AEG handgun is that you have the power to rewire the connectors to use a larger capacity battery. Depending on the AEG handgun type, you can get a substantial jump in efficiency by taking advantage of a two cell Lipo battery (2S Lipo) instead of the stock mini battery.
What Airsoft Handgun is Right for Me?
Picking out the ideal airsoft sidearm for you depends on your budget, how often you wish to play airsoft using it, and where you decide to play. Consider a GBB handgun or AEP handgun if you have more than one-hundred dollars to spend on your airsoft pistol. These guns are typically the best of the best, have the best build qualities, and could be a really good pistol to buy. Check out a CO2 handgun or cheaper green gas GBB handgun if you have between $50 to $100 to put towards an airsoft gun purchase. These guns will still function well and will be pretty resilient sidearms. If you have fifty dollars or less, try to find a lower end CO2 or springer handgun. You can still find a long lasting airsoft handgun to use for the handgun games.
