Information About Airsoft Pistol Types
Find out about airsoft pistols and 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 ideal pistol can make a big difference in blasting your shots. Sidearms, by nature, are reduced range airsoft guns. They are generally made after actual guns or replications of authentic pistols. A large number of airsoft sidearms are fully licensed models of their real world handgun equivalents. These airsoft guns can look and feel and run in the same ways similarly to the real guns they are designed after while blasting airsoft BBs in place of actual bullets.
There are a variety of airsoft pistols consisting of CO2, green gas or propane (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric pistols. Each of these styles of handguns has negatives and positives related to them. Finding out about the kinds of airsoft handguns allows you to decide which type is right for you and your airsoft game play style.
CO2 Airsoft Pistol Details
CO2 airsoft handguns are among the most heavy-duty and common styles of handguns. They are all weather guns and operate well in a lot of kinds of extreme temperatures, weather and climates. These pistols use high pressure CO2 gas to shoot airsoft BBs down the gun barrel. The CO2 cartridge stores the gas and is usually stored in the pistol’s magazine.
These forms of airsoft guns are excellent for playing in colder temperatures since the pressurized CO2 gas is less vulnerable to FPS decreases caused by low temperatures. This provides good FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the cold weather for example where other sorts of pistols like green gas stop working or hardly fire airsoft BBs.
Additional Info About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridge Cylinders
CO2 airsoft sidearms are powered by basic 12 gram CO2 cartridge cylinders. These cartridges look like a metallic cylinder and contain high pressured CO2 gas made up of a single carbon atom and a pair of oxygen atoms, thus the molecular formula comes out to be “C + O2 “. These atoms are attached in the following alignment “O= C =O”. The gas is kept in the 12 gram cartridge cylinders under really high pressure of close to ~ 800psi that translates to 55bar.
The CO2 cylinders cannot be used multiple times and you can commonly purchase them in packs of 12, 20, 50, or 100 12 gram CO2 cartridge sets. They come sealed to preserve the CO2 gas securely inside, but soon after they are opened (firing them in an airsoft pistol breaks the cartridge seal) cartridges will begin to lose pressure if they are left unused. You should attempt to expend the whole CO2 cartridge the same day you open the seal. If the airsoft games end and you still have CO2 gas left, use the chance to do some handgun target practice and burn up the remaining additional gas. There is no gas level indicator on the cartridge so you need to shoot up until the gun stops firing BBs.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges can be stored for a while. They do have the manufacturer’s best used by date usually printed on the box or cartridge cylinder, but they will maintain pressure for a prolonged time past this date if the cartridge seal is not punctured.
Green Gas and Propane Airsoft Handgun Information
Green gas airsoft handguns resemble CO2 handguns, however they do not use CO2 cartridges. As an alternative, they use green gas or propane gas for propellant to propel the airsoft BBs. The operational impact on gameplay and green gas sidearm effectiveness is almost the same as CO2 pistols with the weapons shooting up to 300+ FPS. Shots are quickly fired in semi-automatic or fully-automatic firing modes and can accurately hit targets at shorter to mid-range ranges.
The green gas is stored in the pistol’s mag and can typically hold between 15 to 20+ airsoft BBs depending on the gun style. A series of valves, rubber stoppers, and o-rings keep the gas stored in the pistol mag prior to when the handgun’s trigger is pulled. It is a great habit to top off and fill up your green gas supply in the magazine each time you reload it. Pistol-wielding airsoft players can also bring supplemental bottles of green gas or propane in the field for reloading magazines between lulls in the war or between activities.
When playing with a green gas sidearm on the airsoft field as a main or backup weapon, bringing additional mags is highly recommended for rapidly reloading. Having additional mags allows you to re-engage in the action during firefights or while clearing buildings in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room battles.
Green gas handguns are optimal for CQB at airsoft fields because rifles and full-sized AEGs are usually not permitted to be used for indoor shooting. This is a safety guideline due to the close range proximity of players during shooting engagements. While green gas pistols can still shoot airsoft BBs at around 300 FPS, the short pistol barrel assists to keep the joules and energy moving the BB lower compared to AEGs, 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 and non-blowback handguns. The green gas non-blowback airsoft pistols have a fixed slide which does not move.
About GBB and Green Gas Limitations
Due to the fact that the green gas or propane is held in the mag using rubber seals and silicone gaskets, cold temperatures can negatively affect these seals and allow the gas to leak out prior to shooting the handgun. This can make the airsoft BBs to only shoot a few feet (like 10 feet in cold temps ) when the gun would typically shoot 6mm BBs over 100+ foot distances in warmer temps).
One fix to this issue is to make the GBB handgun mags warmer by putting them next to your body or near a heat source before the airsoft game play starts. If you absolutely need to play with a reputable airsoft pistol in the cold, it might additionally be worth getting a CO2 version of your preferred handgun.
Details About Spring Airsoft Sidearms
Spring airsoft pistols are powered by powerful springs with irregular pitches that launch the BBs out of the gun barrel. The manual functioning of cocking, shooting, and reloading spring pistols makes the fire rate much slower than CO2 and GBB pistols.
Spring sidearms work the best in springer battles where game players can exclusively use related, single shot spring pistols or as a close quarters backup weapon for CQB buildings when you can usually quietly sneak up on other airsoft opponents to get an assured one-shot-one-kill. In the latter scenario, a fast 2nd followup shot will not be called for because the other person is already hit by the first BB and out of the game or running back to respawn. Beware when fighting several foes given that the spring airsoft gun only fires as quickly as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB by hand.
About Spring Pistol Effectiveness
Spring pistols are very effective under the right conditions during airsoft games. Spring guns like pistols can typically fire up to 120 feet or more with 0.12g BBs but the ability to engage targets reduces rapidly.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Pistol Details
AEG airsoft sidearms or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are definitely a viable option to bring as a backup weapon on the airsoft field. These automatic electric handguns are commonly powered by mini stick batteries in the weapon’s grip. They work similar to an AEG gun and use forced air forced through electrically cycled pistons and cylinders to propel airsoft BBs out of the barrel and rapidly.
AEG handgun mags typically store about 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The handguns can fire airsoft BBs up to about 300 FPS when loaded with 0.12 gram airsoft BBs or about 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 spare mags to reload and the battery lasts that long. These pistols can effectively fire airsoft BBs at around 150 foot distances.
AEG Pistol Quality and Efficiency
AEG pistol quality has risen substantially in recent years. The earliest gen AEP guns were a little bit sketchy and unreliable, however the new models have the deficiencies worked out and make reliable airsoft backup weapons. They can be modded with maximized magazine storage capacities and also accommodating larger batteries.
A big advantage of carrying an AEG handgun is that you have the capacity to rewire the connectors to use an enhanced battery with higher mAh. Depending upon the AEG pistol design, you may be able to get a large boost in performance by utilizing a 2 cell Lipo battery (like an 2S Lipo) instead of the standard mini battery. Take care of customizing the components and the gun’s wires because you should take into account the voltages, mAh, and electrical loads of the batteries. Ask a professional airsoft service technician at your local airsoft store or shop if you have customization issues.
Which Airsoft Pistol is Best for Me?
Looking for the ideal airsoft handgun for you depends on your gun budget, how much you would like to play airsoft with it, and where you hope to play. Look into a green gas blowback pistol or automatic electric AEP pistol if you have more than one-hundred dollars to invest on your airsoft pistol. These are normally the top-tier guns, have good build qualities, and are usually a great sidearm to buy. If you have around more than fifty but less than one-hundred dollars to devote to your airsoft gun purchase, have a look at a CO2 pistol or less expensive GBB pistol. These guns will still do the job and are resilient sidearms. Look for a cheap CO2 or spring handgun if you have fifty dollars or less. You can still find a resilient airsoft pistol to use for the handgun games.
