How to Pick an Airsoft Handgun
Learn about airsoft sidearms, pistols, and handguns and how you can use them as backup guns or as core weapons on the airsoft playing field. Lots of airsoft pistols are completely accredited models of their real handgun equivalents and operate and appear in the same ways while shooting airsoft BBs instead of real bullets.
There are a variety of airsoft pistols including CO2, propane or green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric pistols. Each of these kinds of sidearms have negatives and positives connected with them. Finding out about the varieties of airsoft sidearms lets you figure out which type is right for you and your airsoft game play style.
CO2 Airsoft Sidearms
CO2 airsoft guns are one of the most sturdy and standard types of pistols. These pistols use high pressure CO2 gas to move airsoft BBs out of the pistol barrel.
These forms of airsoft pistols are very good for playing in cold and snowy weather conditions because the high pressure CO2 gas is stored in the sealed cylinders and less prone to performance variations with temperature levels. This provides good FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the wintertime for example where other kinds of airsoft handguns like green gas cease to function or barely fire airsoft BBs.
Info About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridges
CO2 airsoft handguns are powered by regular 12 gram CO2 cylinders. These cartridges resemble a shiny cylinder and hold high-pressure CO2 gas comprised of a single carbon atom and two oxygen atoms thus the molecular formula is “C + O2”.
The cartridges come sealed to keep the CO2 gas safely within, however as soon as they are opened (shooting them inside of an airsoft pistol breaks the seal) they will start 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 excess gas.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges can be stored for a while. They are made with a maker’s best used by date usually listed on the box or cartridge, but they can last for a very long period of time past this date if the cartridge seals are not punctured.
Green Gas Airsoft Handguns
Green gas airsoft pistols are comparable to CO2 handguns, however they use green gas instead of CO2 cartridges. The impact on the battleground and green gas weapon performance is almost the exact same as CO2 pistols with the guns shooting up to 300+ FPS.
The green gas is stored in the handgun’s mag which can often hold between 15 to 20+ BBs depending on the handgun design. A series of valves, rubberized gaskets, and silicone o-rings keep the gas stored in the mag till the pistol’s trigger is pulled.
When playing with a green gas pistol on the airsoft field as a secondary or main gun, bringing additional magazines is encouraged for rapidly reloading and getting back into the game. Having additional mags helps you get back in the action in the course of firefights or while clearing buildings in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fights.
Green gas pistols are great for CQB at airsoft fields since rifles, long guns, and full-sized AEGs are usually not approved to be used during indoor game play. This is an essential safety standard because of the close quarters distance of airsoft players during shooting engagements and potential for players to get hurt. While green gas handguns still shoot airsoft BBs at about 300 FPS, the short handgun barrel aids to keep the joules and energy sending the BB lower compared to AEG airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and long guns.
Thinking About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are two various forms of green gas airsoft handguns. First there are green gas blowback handguns or GBBs. These pistols work like an actual handgun with the pistol slide “blowing back” and cycling with every shot. The propane causes the slide to cycle when a new airsoft BB is chambered. The result is very cool, but the guns often are more expensive and likely have more which can break. The green gas non-blowback airsoft handguns use a fixed slide which does not move. The non-blowback pistols normally cost less than GBBs. Efficiency is around the same between the two styles of green gas pistols.
About GBB and Green Gas Limits
Because the green gas or propane is stored in the pistol magazine by using rubber seals, o-rings, and gaskets, cold weather can negatively influence these gaskets and cause the gas to leak out before shooting the handgun. This can cause the airsoft BBs to merely land a number of feet (like 10 feet in cold weather ) when the green gas pistol would typically shoot airsoft BBs over 100+ foot distances in warmer temps).
One option to fix this problem is to keep the GBB handgun mags warmer by putting them next to your body prior to airsoft game play. This can help to warm the rubber seals and help to seal in the green gas. If you honestly desire to play with a reliable airsoft pistol in the cold, it might also be better to get a CO2 version of your preferred handgun. The CO2 cylinders come sealed and perform better in sub-freezing temps and while playing in the snow.
Spring Airsoft Handgun Details
Spring airsoft guns are powered by powerful springs with irregular pitches that send the BBs out of the handgun barrel. The manual action of reloading, cocking, and shooting spring handguns makes the fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB guns.
Spring sidearms and guns work best in springer wars where game players can exclusively use comparable, single shot spring pistols or as a transition backup gun for CQB environments when you can usually surprise other airsoft opponents to get a guaranteed one-shot-one-kill. In the latter case, a fast 2nd follow-up shot is not required given that the other person is now hit by the first BB and out of the game or going back to respawn. When engaging a number of rivals because the springer simply fires as quick as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB by hand, be careful.
About Spring Handgun Performance
Spring guns are considerably effective under the best circumstances and airsoft games. Their FPS commonly chronos at about 250 FPS to 300 FPS with lighter weight 0.12 gram airsoft BBs. These handguns usually fire lighter weight airsoft BBs since the coiled springs are less powerful than other types of airsoft guns like rifles. Spring handguns can typically shoot up to 120 feet or more with 0.12 gram BBs however the ability to hit targets reduces rapidly. Shooting basic 0.20 gram weight airsoft BBs, you will most likely have a reduced range of about 60 to 80 feet or less with increased precision.
Info on AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Pistols
AEG airsoft pistols or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are definitely an option to bring into the field as a secondary gun on the airsoft field. These automatic electric pistols are often powered by mini stick batteries in the pistol’s butt. They function similar to an AEG gun and use pressured air forced through electrically cycled gearboxes, pistons, and cylinders to fire airsoft BBs out of the barrel and rapidly.
AEG pistol magazines typically carry about 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The pistols can fire airsoft BBs up to about 300 FPS with 0.12g airsoft BBs or 200 to 250 FPS using 0.20g airsoft BBs.
AEG Pistol Quality and Performance
AEG handgun quality has grown considerably in the last few years. The initial gens were a bit sketchy and unreliable, however the more recent models have the deficiencies worked out and make efficient airsoft backup weapons. They can be improved with increased mag storage capacities in addition to accommodating more powerful batteries.
A large advantage of buying an AEG pistol is that you have the ability to rewire the wires to use an enhanced capacity battery. Depending on the AEG pistol version, you can gain a large output in efficiency utilizing a two cell Lipo battery (like an 2S Lipo) instead of the standard AEP battery. Take care of modifying the parts and wires since you need to take into account the voltages, mAh, and loads of the batteries. If you have customization concerns, ask a qualified gun specialist at your local airsoft store.
Which Airsoft Pistol is Best for Me to Buy?
Deciding on the ideal airsoft pistol for you depends upon your gun budget, how much you would like to play airsoft using it, and where you decide to play. If you have more than one-hundred dollars to spend on your airsoft pistol, consider a green gas handgun or AEP handgun. These are typically the best of the best, have the very best build qualities, and can be an excellent sidearm to buy. Look at a CO2 handgun or cheaper green gas GBB pistol if you have in-between more than fifty but less than one-hundred dollars to put into an airsoft gun purchase. Mid-tier guns like these will still work well and will be long lasting sidearms. If you have less than fifty dollars, consider a cheaper CO2 or springer handgun. You can still get a dependable airsoft pistol to use for the handgun games.
