Information on Airsoft Pistol Styles
Find out about airsoft sidearms and how you can use them as backup guns or as main weapons on the airsoft playing field. Practicing your accuracy and getting the right pistol can make an impact in hitting your shots. Pistols, by nature, are short range airsoft weapons. They are often created after real sidearms or copies of authentic handguns. A large number of airsoft pistols are completely licensed models of their genuine pistol equivalents. These airsoft guns can look and function (except for shooting bullets) in the same ways identically to the real guns they are modeled around while blasting airsoft BBs instead of real-world bullets.
There are a variety of airsoft handguns including CO2, green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric pistols. Each of these forms of pistols come with positives and negatives associated with them. Learning about the varieties of airsoft sidearms allows you to choose which type is right for you and your airsoft gameplay style.
Details About CO2 Airsoft Pistols
CO2 airsoft handguns are one of the most tough and typical styles of pistols. They are all-season, all-weather handguns and operate well in many kinds of weather conditions and climates. These handguns use high pressure CO2 gas to launch airsoft BBs out of the weapon barrel. The CO2 cartridge stores the gas within the cylinder and is typically held in the handgun’s handle.
These kinds of airsoft weapons are great for airsoft games in cooler temperatures due to the fact that the compressed CO2 gas is stored in the sealed cylinders and less vulnerable to FPS decreases with low temperatures. This gives CO2 airsoft handguns excellent FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the winter for example where other sorts of airsoft pistols like green gas stop working or barely shoot pellets.
About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridges
CO2 airsoft sidearms are powered by regular 12 gram CO2 cartridge cylinders. These cartridges look similar to a metallic cylinder and store high-pressure CO2 gas made up of 1 carbon atom and two oxygen atoms, so the molecular formula comes out to be “C + O2 “. These atoms are bonded in the following order “O= C =O”. The gas is held in the 12 gram cartridges under really high pressure of around ~ 800psi that correlates to 55bar.
The cartridges come sealed to keep the CO2 gas safely within, however as soon as they are opened (shooting them inside of an airsoft weapon breaks the cartridge seal) they will begin to lose pressure if they are left unused. If the airsoft matches end and you still have CO2 gas left, use the chance to do some handgun target practice and use up the rest of the extra gas.
CO2 cartridges have a long storage life if they are kept sealed. They come with a supplier’s use by date usually printed on the package or cylinder, but they will maintain pressure for a very long time past this date if the cartridge seals are not broken.
Information About Green Gas Airsoft Pistols
Green gas airsoft pistols are similar to CO2 handguns, but they do not use CO2 cartridges. The effect on the battlefield and green gas weapon performance is practically the exact same as CO2 pistols with the weapons at about 300+ FPS.
The propane gas is stashed in the handgun’s airsoft magazine that can normally hold between 15 to 20+ airsoft BBs based on the handgun type. A series of valves, rubber gaskets, and seals keep the gas stored in the mag up until the pistol’s trigger is pulled.
When running a green gas handgun on the airsoft field or arena as a backup or main gun, additional pistol mags are highly recommended for rapidly reloading and engaging the op force. Having extra mags on-hand allows you to reengage in the action during firefights or while sweeping buildings in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fights.
Green gas pistols are ideal for CQB at airsoft fields considering that long guns and full-sized AEGs are typically not authorized to be used for indoor gameplay. This is a safety regulation because of the close range distance of players during the shooting engagements. While green gas handguns still fire airsoft BBs at about 300 FPS, the shorter handgun barrel assists to keep the joules and energy moving the BB at a decreased level compared to AEG airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and other long guns.
About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are 2 different forms of green gas airsoft pistols. There are green gas blowback pistols or GBBs. These pistols operate like an authentic handgun with the pistol’s slide “blowing back” with every shot. The propane gas induces the slide to cycle each time when a fresh airsoft BB is loaded into the chamber. This functioning while shooting is really cool, but the weapons usually cost more and potentially have more to break. The green gas non-blowback airsoft pistols have a fixed slide which does not move. The non-blowback pistols commonly cost less than GBBs. Performance is about the same between the two styles of green gas handguns.
About GBB and Green Gas Issues
Because the green gas or propane gas is held in the pistol mag using rubber seals, o-rings, and silicone gaskets, cold temps can affect these gaskets and cause the gas to escape prior to shooting the pistol. The lack of pressure can cause the airsoft BBs to simply shoot a couple of feet away (like 10 feet in cold weather ) when the green gas handgun would usually shoot 6mm BBs over 100+ foot distances in warmer weather conditions).
One fix for this challenge is to try to keep the GBB pistol mags warmer by positioning them near your body before airsoft game play. This can help to warm the rubber seals and better seal in the green gas. It can also be worth getting a CO2 variation of your preferred handgun if you truly want to play with a reliable airsoft handgun in the cold. The CO2 cylinders come sealed and the gun will shoot far better in sub-freezing temps and while playing in the snow.
Spring Airsoft Sidearms
Spring airsoft sidearms are powered by powerful coil springs that launch the BBs out of the pistol barrel. They are generally single-shot. The manual actions of reloading, cocking, and shooting spring pistols makes the fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB pistols. This makes spring airsoft guns interesting to use, but they are usually less effective when facing attackers on the airsoft field with advanced guns like auto airsoft AEG rifles and CO2, green gas, or GBB airsoft handguns.
Spring pistols perform the best in springer wars where opponents can exclusively use comparable, single shot spring handguns or as a close quarters backup gun for CQB buildings and MOUT sites when you can usually surprise other airsoft game players to get an assured one-shot-one-kill. In the latter case, a quick 2nd followup shot isn’t called for due to the fact that the other player is already hit by the airsoft BB and out of the game play or headed back to respawn. Look out when fighting multiple players due to the fact that the spring gun just fires as quick as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB manually.
About Spring Handgun Efficiency
Spring guns are very effective under the right game circumstances. Their FPS often chronos at around 250 FPS to 300 FPS with 0.12 gram airsoft BBs. These guns generally fire the lighter weight airsoft BBs because the springs are less powerful than other types of airsoft guns like rifles. Spring guns can normally shoot up to 120 feet or more with 0.12 gram BBs however accuracy reduces rapidly. Shooting conventional 0.20 gram weight airsoft BBs, you will probably have a reduced range of around 60 to 80 feet or less with enhanced target accuracy.
Facts About AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Pistols
AEG airsoft pistols or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are definitely a viable option to bring into the field as a secondary weapon on the airsoft field. These automatic electric pistols are typically powered by mini stick batteries in the gun’s handle. They operate much like an AEG SMG and use pressurized air with electrically cycled pistons, gearboxes, and cylinders to fire airsoft BBs out of the barrel and very rapidly at that.
AEG pistol magazines typically can carry about 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 with 0.20g airsoft BBs.
AEG Handgun Quality and Efficiency
AEG handgun quality has actually grown considerably in recent years. The initial gen AEP guns were a bit unreliable and sketchy, however the more recent models have the issues resolved and make efficient airsoft secondary guns. They can be modded with increased magazine storage capacities and also accommodating larger batteries.
A big perk of using an AEG pistol is that you have the capability to rewire the adapters to use an increased capacity battery with higher mAh. Depending upon the AEG pistol type, you may be able to gain a substantial leap in performance and fire rate using a 2 cell Lipo battery (like an 2S Lipo) as a replacement for the standard battery. Be careful when adjusting the elements and wires because you should think about the volts, mAh, and loads of the battery. If you have customization questions, ask an experienced gun specialist at your closest airsoft store or shop.
Which Airsoft Sidearm is Right for Me?
Choosing the right airsoft pistol for you depends upon your budget, how much you want to play airsoft with it, and where you decide to play. Take a look at a GBB green gas handgun or AEP pistol if you have more than $100 to spend on your airsoft handgun. These guns are normally the best of the best, have great build qualities, and can be a great gun to get. Take a look at a CO2 handgun or cheaper GBB handgun if you have between more than fifty but less than one-hundred dollars to buy a gun. Mid-tier guns like these will still get the job done and can be pretty resilient sidearms. Look for a cheap CO2 or spring handgun if you have less than fifty dollars. You can still get a well-built airsoft pistol to use for the pistol airsoft guns.
