Airsoft Pistol Variety Additional Info
Learn about airsoft sidearms, pistols, and handguns and how you can use them as extra guns or as primary weapons on the airsoft playing field. A lot of airsoft handguns are fully manufactured replications of their authentic handgun counterparts and look and run in the very same ways while shooting airsoft BBs rather than genuine bullets.
There are a few types of airsoft handguns including CO2, propane or green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric pistols. Each of these styles of handguns have negatives and positives associated with them. Learning about the types of airsoft handguns allows you to figure out which type is right for you and your airsoft game play style.
CO2 Airsoft Sidearm Details
CO2 airsoft pistols are one of the most dependable and standard varieties of handguns. They are all season handguns and function well in a lot of kinds of weather and climates. These pistols use pressurized CO2 gas to send airsoft BBs down the gun barrel. The CO2 cartridge is generally kept in the handgun’s magazine inside the handle.
These styles of airsoft pistols are excellent for playing airsoft in cooler weather given that the pressurized CO2 gas is stored in the sealed cylinders and less prone to performance decreases caused by low temperature. This fact gives CO2 airsoft guns exceptional FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the winter for example where other styles of handguns like green gas cease to function or hardly shoot airsoft BBs.
Information About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridges
CO2 airsoft sidearms are powered by basic 12 gram CO2 cartridges. These cartridges resemble a chrome cylinder and contain high pressured CO2 gas composed of 1 carbon atom and two oxygen atoms hence the molecular formula of “C + O2”.
The CO2 gas cartridge cylinders cannot be used multiple times and you can commonly purchase them in packs of 12, 20, 50, or 100 12 gram CO2 cartridges. They come sealed to keep the CO2 gas securely inside, once they are opened (shooting them in an airsoft gun breaks the cartridge seal) they will start to lose pressure if they are not expended. You ought to try to run through the entire CO2 cartridge the same day you open the seal. If the airsoft matches end and you still have CO2 gas leftover, use the chance to do some handgun accuracy and target practice and burn up the remainder of the surplus gas. There is no gas level indicator on the cartridge so you need to shoot until the gun stops shooting.
CO2 cartridges can be stored for a while if the cylinders are stored sealed. They come with the maker’s expiration date normally printed on the package or cartridge cylinder, however, they can survive for a very long time past this date if the cartridge seal is not punctured.
Green Gas and Propane Airsoft Sidearms
Green gas airsoft pistols function similarly to CO2 guns, however they do not use CO2 cartridges. Rather, they use green gas or propane gas for propellant to shoot the airsoft pellets. The impact on the battlefield and green gas weapon performance is almost the same as CO2 pistols with the weapons shooting up to 300+ feet per second. Shots are quickly fired in semi-automatic or fully-automatic firing modes and precisely hit targets at short to mid-range distances.
The green gas is sealed in the pistol’s magazine and can often hold in-between 15 to 20+ 6mm airsoft BBs depending on the gun design. A set of valves, rubberized stoppers, and o-rings keep the propane gas stored in the pistol magazine up to the point the pistol’s trigger is squeezed. It is a good choice to top off and fill up the green gas in your mag each time you reload it. Pistol-wielding airsoft players can also carry surplus bottles of propane gas in the field for refilling magazines between lulls in the war or in-between games.
When using a green gas pistol on the airsoft field or arena as a secondary or primary gun, additional magazines are highly recommended for quickly reloading and engaging the op force. Having additional magazines on-hand allows you to re engage in the action throughout firefights or while clearing structures in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fighting.
Green gas handguns are perfect for CQB at airsoft fields considering that rifles and full-sized AEGs are usually not approved to be used during indoor gameplay. This is an essential safety standard due to the close range distance of players during shooting engagements and the potential for players to be injured. While green gas pistols can still fire airsoft BBs at about 300 FPS, the short pistol barrel assists to keep the joules and energy propelling the BB at a lower level 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 varieties 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 Limits
While green gas generally performs effectively on the airsoft field, it does have issues. When green gas and GBB guns are used during the winter season in the snow or in colder weather (such as below 32 degrees F). Since the green gas or propane gas is kept in the pistol mag by rubber seals, o-rings, and gaskets, low temperatures can affect the seals and allow the stored gas to escape before firing the pistol. This can cause the airsoft BBs to just shoot a couple of feet (like 10 feet in the cold ) when the gun would ordinarily shoot BBs over 100+ foot distances in warmer temperatures).
One solution to this problem is to keep the GBB pistol magazines warmer by placing them next to your body, beside a heater, or inside your jacket just before game play starts. If you really desire to play with a trustworthy airsoft pistol in the cold weather, it might also be worth getting a CO2 version of your preferred pistol.
Spring Airsoft Handgun Info
Spring airsoft handguns are powered by powerful springs that propel the BBs out of the gun’s barrel. The manual functions of firing, cocking, and reloading spring handguns makes the fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB pistols.
Spring pistols perform best in springer wars where participants can exclusively use related, single shot spring handguns or as a close quarters combat backup gun for CQB environments when you can frequently quietly sneak up on other airsoft players to get a guaranteed one-shot-one-kill. In the latter scenario, a quick second followup shot isn’t called for considering that the other opponent is already hit by the first shot and out of the game play or going back to respawn. When engaging a number of opponents since the spring airsoft gun only shoots as quick as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB manually, be careful.
About Spring Pistol Performance
Spring guns are extremely reliable under the best circumstances and airsoft games. Their FPS often chronos at around 250 FPS to 300 FPS with lighter weight 0.12 gram airsoft BBs. These handguns usually fire lighter weight airsoft BBs due to the fact that the pitched springs are less effective than other types of airsoft guns like rifles. Spring guns can generally be accurate at up to 120 feet or more with 0.12g BBs however precision diminishes rapidly. Using basic 0.20g weight airsoft BBs, you will very likely have a range of around 60 to 80 feet or less with increased precision.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Handgun Info
AEG airsoft pistols or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are definitely a viable option to bring into the field as a sidearm on the airsoft field. These automatic electric handguns are often powered by mini stick batteries in the pistol’s handle. They function similar to an AEG rifle and use compressed air with electrically cycled pistons and cylinders to fire airsoft BBs out of the barrel and very quickly at that.
AEG pistol mags normally can hold about 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The pistols can launch airsoft BBs up to around 300 FPS with 0.12g airsoft BBs or 200 to 250 FPS using 0.20 gram airsoft BBs.
AEG Pistol Quality and Performance
AEG pistol quality has actually increased significantly over the last few years. The first gens were a bit questionable and undependable, but the newer designs have most of the problems worked out and make efficient airsoft backup guns. They can be further modified with increased mag storage capacities as well as accommodating larger batteries.
A large benefit of using an AEG handgun is that you have the power to rewire the adapters to use a larger battery. Depending on the AEG handgun type, you can get a huge increase in functionality by using a 2 cell Lipo battery (2S Lipo) rather than the stock mini battery.
What Airsoft Pistol is Best for Me to Play with?
If you have more than one-hundred dollars to spend on your airsoft pistol, you may want to consider a GBB pistol or AEG pistol. If you have between fifty to one-hundred dollars to buy a gun, check out a CO2 pistol or more affordable GBB pistol. If your gun budget is lower, you can still choose a durable airsoft pistol to use for the pistol games.
