How to Choose an Airsoft Handgun
Find out about airsoft pistols 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 right pistol can be a game changer in hitting your shots. Handguns, naturally, are short range airsoft weapons. They are commonly designed after actual guns or clones of actual pistols. Numerous airsoft pistols are completely certified reproductions of their genuine firearm counterparts. These airsoft guns can function in the same ways and appear identically to the real guns they are designed around while shooting airsoft BBs rather than real bullets.
There are a variety of airsoft sidearms consisting of CO2, green gas or propane (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric gun pistols. Each of these varieties of handguns has negatives and positives related to them. Learning about the types of airsoft handguns helps you make a decision on which type is right for you and your airsoft play style.
Details About CO2 Airsoft Pistols
CO2 airsoft sidearms are one of the most heavy-duty and popular varieties of pistols. They are all season, all weather pistols and work well in many types of weather, temperatures, and climates. These pistols use pressurized CO2 gas to send airsoft BBs out of the pistol barrel. The CO2 cartridge stores the gas and is normally located in the handgun’s magazine.
These forms of airsoft weapons are excellent for airsoft games in cooler weather conditions due to the fact that the compressed CO2 gas is less susceptible to variation with low temperatures. This fact provides good FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the cold weather for example where other varieties of airsoft pistols like green gas stuffer from low performance or hardly shoot pellets.
Additional Info About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridges
CO2 airsoft sidearms are powered by common 12 gram CO2 cartridges. These cartridges resemble a metallic cylinder and contain high-pressure CO2 gas consisting of 1 carbon atom and a couple of oxygen atoms, so the molecular formula is “C + O2 “. These atoms are connected in the following sequence “O= C =O”. The gas is kept in the 12 gram cartridge cylinders under very high pressure of approximately ~ 800psi which translates to 55bar.
They come sealed to keep the CO2 gas safely inside, but soon after 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 opportunity to do some handgun target practice and use up the rest of the excess gas.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges can be stored for a longtime. They have a supplier’s expiration date usually printed on the box or cartridge cylinder, however they will likely maintain pressure for a very long time past this date if the cartridge seal is not broken.
Green Gas Airsoft Pistol Information
Green gas airsoft handguns resemble CO2 guns, however they do not use CO2 cartridges. Alternatively, they use green gas or propane gas for propellant to shoot the airsoft pellets. The result on game play and green gas pistol performance is basically the same as CO2 handguns with the guns shooting up to 300+ feet-per-second (FPS). Shots are efficiently fired in semi-automatic or automatic firing modes and can hit targets at short to mid-range ranges.
The propane gas is kept in the pistol’s airsoft mag that can commonly hold around 15 to 20+ BBs depending on the pistol type. A series of valves, rubberized gaskets, and o-rings keep the gas stored in the mag until the pistol’s trigger is pulled.
When carrying a green gas pistol on the airsoft field as a secondary or main gun, additional handgun mags are encouraged for quickly reloading and engaging the op force. Having extra magazines helps you reengage in the action throughout firefights or while clearing structures in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room combat.
Green gas handguns are suitable for CQB at airsoft fields since rifles and full-sized AEGs are normally not allowed to be used during indoor game play. This is an essential safety regulation due to the close range distance of players during shooting engagements and the potential for players to be injured. While green gas handguns can still shoot airsoft BBs at around 300 FPS, the short pistol barrel assists to keep the joules and energy forcing the BB at a lower level compared to AEGs, sniper rifles, and other long guns.
About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are 2 various styles of green gas airsoft pistols. First there are green gas blowback pistols or GBBs. These guns function like a legitimate handgun with the gun’s slide “blowing back” and cycling with every shot. The gas triggers the slide to cycle every time when a fresh airsoft BB is chambered. This cycling is really cool, however the GBB handguns frequently cost more and potentially have more parts which can break. The green gas non-blowback airsoft guns have a stationary slide which does not cycle. The non-blowback pistols typically cost less than GBBs. Performance is around the same when comparing the two varieties of green gas pistols.
About GBB and Green Gas Limits
Because the green gas or propane is housed in the pistol magazine using rubber seals, o-rings, and silicone gaskets, the cold can negatively affect these seals and cause the gas to leak out prior to shooting the pistol. This can make the airsoft BBs to only shoot a number of feet (like 10 feet in cold weather ) when the pistol would normally shoot BBs over 100+ feet in warmer weather conditions).
One solution to this problem is to try to keep the GBB pistol mags warmer by positioning them near your body just before the airsoft game play. This can help to warm the seals, gaskets, and valves and better seal in the green gas. It might also be worth getting a CO2 variation of your favorite handgun if you actually prefer to play with a reliable airsoft handgun in the cold. The CO2 cartridges come sealed and the gun shoots much better in sub-freezing temps and while playing in the snow.
Spring Airsoft Sidearm Information
Spring airsoft handguns are powered by strong coil springs that propel the BBs out of the pistol’s barrel. The manual functioning of reloading, firing, and cocking spring handguns makes the fire rate much slower than CO2 and GBB handguns.
Spring sidearms work most effectively in springer wars where players can just use comparable, single shot spring weapons or as an alternative backup gun for CQB buildings when you can usually sneak up to other airsoft game players to get a guaranteed one-shot-one-kill. In the latter circumstance, a quick 2nd follow-up shot isn’t needed given that the other player is already hit by the first BB and out of the game or running back to respawn. When engaging numerous adversaries given that the spring airsoft gun only fires as fast as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB manually, be cautious.
About Spring Pistol Efficiency
Spring handguns are extremely efficient under the proper game conditions. Their FPS typically chronos at about 250 FPS to 300 FPS with lighter 0.12g airsoft BBs. These guns generally fire lighter weight airsoft BBs due to the fact that the coiled springs are less effective than other types of airsoft weapons. Spring guns can usually engage targets at ranges of up to 120 feet or more with 0.12 gram BBs but precision decreases quickly. Choosing standard 0.20g weight airsoft BBs, you will very likely have a shooting distance of about 60 to 80 feet or less with enhanced accuracy.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Pistol Information
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 pistols are normally powered by mini stick batteries in the weapon’s grip. They operate similar to an AEG rifle and use forced air forced through electrically cycled pistons, gearboxes, and cylinders to fire airsoft BBs out of the barrel and very quickly at that.
AEG handgun mags usually can carry around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The handguns can fire airsoft BBs up to around 300 FPS with 0.12 gram airsoft BBs or about 200 to 250 FPS using 0.20g airsoft BBs. The electrical gearbox system can shoot around 700+ BBs per minute which depends if you have enough spare magazines to maintain the ammo supply and the battery maintains its charge that long. These handguns can accurately shoot airsoft BBs at around 150 foot ranges.
AEG Handgun Quality and Performance
AEG handgun quality has actually risen substantially recently. The first generation AEP guns were a bit questionable and unreliable, but the newer designs have the deficiencies resolved and make effective airsoft backup weapons. They can be modified with maximized magazine storage capacities and by accommodating more powerful batteries.
A large benefit of using an AEG handgun is that you have the capability to rewire the battery connections to use a larger battery. Depending on the AEG pistol model, you can gain a sizable output in performance by taking advantage of a two cell Lipo battery (like an 2S Lipo) as a replacement for the stock mini battery.
Which Airsoft Handgun is Right for Me?
Looking for the best airsoft sidearm for you depends on your budget, how often you want to play airsoft with it, and where you decide to play. Look into a GBB handgun or automatic electric AEP pistol if you have more than one-hundred dollars to invest on your airsoft pistol. These kinds of guns are normally the top-tier guns, have great efficiency, and could be an excellent gun to invest in. Look into a CO2 handgun or less costly green gas GBB handgun if you have between more than $50 but less than $100 to put towards an airsoft gun purchase. Mid-tier guns like these will still finish the job and are sturdy sidearms. Look for a cheaper CO2 or spring pistol if you have less than $50. You can still find a long-lasting airsoft handgun to use for the pistol airsoft guns.
