Info About Airsoft Pistol Styles
Learn about airsoft handguns and sidearms and how you can use them as extra weapons or as primary weapons on the airsoft playing field. Numerous airsoft handguns are fully manufactured editions of their real firearm counterparts and look and run in the same ways while shooting airsoft BBs rather than real bullets.
There are several types of airsoft pistols such as CO2, green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric handguns. Each of these forms of handguns have negatives and positives connected with them. Learning about the kinds of airsoft pistols lets you choose which type is right for you and your airsoft game play style.
Details About CO2 Airsoft Handguns
CO2 airsoft pistols are one of the most sturdy and common types of sidearms. These pistols use CO2 stored in small cylinders to propel airsoft BBs out of the gun barrel.
These styles of airsoft pistols are exceptional for playing in cold and snowy weather considering that the high pressure CO2 gas is less vulnerable to variation by low temperature. This fact offers very good FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the wintertime for example where other styles of airsoft handguns like green gas cease to operate or hardly fire BBs.
About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cylinders
CO2 airsoft pistols are powered by common 12 gram CO2 cartridge cylinders. These cartridges look similar to a chrome metal cylinder and hold high pressured CO2 gas comprised of just one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms, subsequently the molecular formula comes out to be “C + O2 “. These atoms are bonded in the following alignment “O= C =O”. The gas is stored in the 12 gram cartridges under extremely high pressure of approximately ~ 800psi which converts to 55bar.
They come sealed to keep the CO2 gas securely within, but the moment they are opened (firing them in an airsoft pistol breaks the cartridge 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.
CO2 cartridges have a long storage life if they are stored sealed. They come with a maker’s expiry date usually noted on the box or cartridge, however, they will likely maintain pressure for an extended period past this date if the cartridge seals are not punctured.
Information About Green Gas Airsoft Pistols
Green gas airsoft sidearms resemble CO2 guns, however they do not use CO2 cartridges. As an alternative, they use green gas or propane for propellant to fire the airsoft pellets. The operational impact on gameplay and green gas handgun efficiency is almost the same as CO2 pistols with the guns shooting up to 300+ feet per second (FPS). Shots are quickly fired in automatic or semi-automatic shooting modes and precisely hit targets at very short to mid-range ranges.
The green gas is housed in the handgun’s mag which can commonly hold in-between 15 to 20+ BBs depending upon the gun design. A series of valves, rubber stoppers, and seals keep the gas stored in the pistol magazine till the pistol’s trigger is squeezed. It is a good habit to top off and refill the green gas supply in your magazine each time you reload it. Pistol-wielding airsoft players can additionally take surplus bottles of green gas or propane in the field for reloading mags in-between breaks in the battle or in-between game play.
When carrying a green gas sidearm on the airsoft field as a secondary or main gun, bringing additional handgun magazines is recommended for quickly reloading. Having additional mags allows you to re-engage in the action in the middle of firefights or while sweeping structures in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fighting.
Green gas handguns are perfect for CQB at airsoft fields because rifles, long guns, and full-sized AEGs are typically not approved to be used for indoor game play. This is an essential safety standard because of the close range proximity of airsoft players during shooting engagements and the potential for players to be injured. While green gas pistols still fire airsoft BBs at about 300 FPS, the shorter pistol barrel assists to keep the joules and energy propelling the BB at a lower level compared to AEGs, airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and other long guns.
Thinking About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are 2 various forms of green gas airsoft pistols. To start with there are green gas blowback handguns or GBBs. These pistols work like a legitimate handgun with the slide “blowing back” and cycling with every shot. Every time a fresh airsoft BB is chambered, the gas induces the slide to cycle. This functionality is very cool, but the GBB guns often are more expensive and likely have more parts to break. The green gas non-blowback airsoft handguns use a stationary slide which does not cycle. The non-blowback guns normally cost less than GBBs. Performance is around the same between the two types of green gas pistols.
About GBB and Green Gas Limitations
Because the green gas or propane gas is housed in the magazine by rubber seals, o-rings, and gaskets, the cold can affect these o-rings and allow the stored gas to leak out before shooting the pistol. The lack of pressure can cause the airsoft BBs to merely land a number of feet away (like 10 feet in cold temps ) when the handgun would usually shoot airsoft BBs over 100+ foot distances in warmer temperatures).
One solution to this problem is to make the GBB pistol magazines warmer by positioning them next to your body, beside a heater, or inside your jacket prior to the airsoft game play. If you absolutely want to play with a reputable airsoft pistol in the cold weather, it might also be worth getting a CO2 style of your preferred pistol.
Facts About Spring Airsoft Handguns
Spring airsoft guns are powered by powerful springs with irregular pitches that launch the BBs down the pistol barrel. They are normally only able to shoot one BB. The manual functions of reloading, firing, and cocking spring airsoft guns makes the weapon’s fire rate much slower than CO2 and GBB handguns. When confronting adversaries on the airsoft field with advanced weaponry, automatic airsoft AEG SMGs, assault rifles, and CO2, green gas, or GBB airsoft handguns, this can make them fun to use, but less effective.
Spring sidearms and guns perform best in springer battles where players can exclusively use related, single shot spring pistols or as a close quarters backup weapon for CQB environments when you can usually quietly sneak up on other airsoft players to get a guaranteed one-shot-one-kill. In the latter case, a quick second followup shot will not be needed given that the other opponent is already struck and out of the gameplay or moving back to respawn. When engaging several opponents since the gun just fires as quick as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB manually, be careful.
About Spring Handgun Effectiveness
Spring guns are incredibly effective under the appropriate game circumstances. Spring handguns can generally fire up to 120 feet or more with 0.12 gram BBs but precision decreases rapidly.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Handgun Information
AEG airsoft sidearms or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are also a good choice to bring as a secondary weapon on the airsoft field. These automatic electric pistols are commonly powered by mini stick batteries in the weapon’s butt. They operate similar to an AEG gun and use pressured air pumped through electrically cycled gearboxes, pistons, and cylinders to fire airsoft BBs out of the barrel and rapidly.
AEG pistol magazines normally can hold about 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The pistols can fire airsoft BBs as high as about 300 FPS using 0.12g airsoft BBs or about 200 to 250 FPS using 0.20g airsoft BBs. The electrically powered gearbox system can shoot around 700+ BBs per minute which depends on if you have enough spare magazines to reload with and the battery holds out that long. These AEP pistols can efficiently shoot airsoft BBs at around 150 foot distances.
AEG Handgun Quality and Efficiency
AEG pistol quality has actually risen considerably in recent years. The first gens were a little bit questionable and undependable, but the newer versions have most of the issues worked out and make effective airsoft backup weapons. They can be further modded with enhanced magazine capacities along with accommodating larger batteries.
A substantial advantage of carrying an AEG pistol is that you have the ability to rewire the adapters to use an increased capacity battery with higher mAh. Depending upon the AEG pistol style, you are able to get a substantial output in efficiency by using a two cell Lipo battery (2S Lipo) as a replacement for the standard mini battery. Be careful with customizing the components and the gun’s wires since you must consider the volts, mAh, and electrical loads of the battery. Ask a pro gun tech at your local airsoft shop or store if you have customization questions.
Which Airsoft Pistol is Right for Me to Buy?
Picking out the right airsoft handgun for you depends on your budget, how often you wish to play airsoft with it, and where you plan to play. If you can afford over $100 to invest in your airsoft handgun, check out a green gas blowback pistol or AEG handgun. These guns are usually the top of the line, have great performance, and could be an excellent investment. If you have about more than $50 but less than $100 to spend on upgrading your airsoft arsenal, look at a CO2 pistol or a 2nd-tier green gas blowback handgun. Middle of the road guns like these will still be fun to play with and can be sturdy sidearms. If you have less than fifty dollars, research a lower end CO2 or springer pistol. You can still buy a durable airsoft handgun to use for the pistol airsoft guns.
