About Airsoft Pistol Styles
Find information about airsoft handguns and sidearms and how you can use them as backup weapons or as primary weapons on the airsoft playing field. A lot of airsoft handguns are fully approved and licensed replications of their genuine firearm counterparts and operate and look in the exact same ways while shooting airsoft BBs instead of genuine bullets.
There are a variety of airsoft pistols such as CO2, green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric gun sidearms. Each of these forms of pistols have benefits and differences connected with them. Learning more about the kinds of airsoft pistols allows you to choose which type is right for you and your airsoft game play style.
Details About CO2 Airsoft Pistols
CO2 airsoft sidearms are among the most typical and tough kinds of handguns. They are all weather weapons and function well in lots of kinds of weather conditions and environments. These pistols use pressurized CO2 gas to launch airsoft BBs down the pistol barrel. The CO2 cartridge stores the gas within a cylinder and is generally kept in the gun’s magazine inside the handle.
These kinds of airsoft weapons are good for playing in cold and snowy temperatures considering that the pressurized CO2 gas is less sensitive to variation by temperature. This fact gives CO2 airsoft pistols great FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the cold weather for example where other sorts of pistols like green gas stop operating or hardly fire pellets.
About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridge Cylinders
CO2 airsoft pistols are powered by conventional 12 gram CO2 cartridge cylinders. These cartridges look like a metallic cylinder and store high pressure CO2 gas consisting of just one carbon atom and two oxygen atoms thus the molecular formula of “C + O2”.
The cartridges come sealed to keep the CO2 gas safely inside, however when they are opened (shooting them inside of an airsoft pistol 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 opportunity to do some handgun target practice and use up the rest of the extra gas.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges can be stored for a longtime. They come with a manufacturer’s expiration date normally printed on the box or cartridge, however, they may stay pressurized for an extended time past this date if the cartridge seal is not broken.
Details About Green Gas Airsoft Sidearms
Green gas airsoft handguns resemble CO2 guns, but they do not use CO2 cartridges. Alternatively, they use green gas or propane for propellant to propel 6mm airsoft BBs. The impact on game play and green gas sidearm efficiency is virtually the same as CO2 handguns with the weapons shooting up to about 300+ FPS. Shots are quickly fired in automatic or semi-automatic shooting modes and can accurately hit targets at very short to mid-range ranges.
The propane is stashed in the pistol’s mag that can often hold between 15 to 20+ BBs based on the pistol model. A series of valves, rubberized gaskets, and o-rings keep the gas pressurized in the mag until the handgun’s trigger is pulled.
When using a green gas pistol on the airsoft field or arena as a secondary or primary weapon, bringing extra pistol mags is suggested for rapidly reloading. Having extra magazines on-hand helps you get back in the action throughout firefights or while sweeping buildings in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room battles.
Green gas pistols are perfect for CQB at airsoft fields considering that rifles and full-sized AEGs are typically not enabled to be used during indoor shooting. This is an essential safety regulation due to the close quarters distance of players during shooting engagements and the potential for players to be injured. While green gas pistols still shoot airsoft BBs at about 300 FPS, the shorter handgun barrel helps to keep the joules and energy launching the BB at a lower level compared to AEG airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and other long guns.
Thinking About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are 2 different varieties of green gas airsoft pistols. First there are green gas blowback handguns or GBBs. These handguns operate like a realistic handgun with the gun’s slide “blowing back” and moving with every shot. The propane induces the slide to cycle each time when a brand-new airsoft BB is loaded into the chamber. This functioning while shooting is really cool, but the GBB handguns typically cost more and likely have more that can break. The green gas non-blowback airsoft guns use a stationary slide which does not cycle. The non-blowback pistols usually cost less than GBBs. Efficiency is around the same when comparing the two kinds of green gas pistols.
About GBB and Green Gas Issues
While green gas generally can be used effectively, it does have constraints. For example, when green gas guns are played with throughout the winter airsoft games in the snow or in very cold temperatures (like lower 32 deg F). Since the green gas or propane is stored in the mag using rubber seals, o-rings, and gaskets, cold temperatures can affect the seals and make the gas to escape prior to shooting. The decrease in pressure can cause the airsoft BBs to only shoot a few feet (like 10 feet in the cold ) when the gun would usually shoot airsoft BBs over 100+ foot distances in warmer temps).
One option to fix this issue is to make the GBB pistol magazines warmer by putting them inside your jacket next to your body just before the game play. This can help to warm the rubber seals and help to seal in the green gas. It might also be worth checking out a CO2 variation of your preferred pistol if you really want to play with a reliable airsoft pistol in the cold. The CO2 cartridges come sealed and the gun shoots better in sub-freezing temps and while playing in the snow.
Spring Airsoft Handguns
Spring airsoft pistols are powered by strong coil springs that fire the BBs out of the pistol’s barrel. The manual functioning of shooting, cocking, and reloading spring handguns makes the fire rate much slower than CO2 and GBB airsoft guns.
Spring sidearms and guns perform best in springer wars where game players can solely use related, single shot spring handguns or as an alternative weapon for CQB environments when you can often sneak up to other airsoft participants to get a guaranteed one-shot-one-kill. In the latter situation, a quick 2nd followup shot is not called for due to the fact that the other opponent is already struck and out of the game play or moving back to respawn. Look out when attacking numerous adversaries since the spring weapon just fires as quickly as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB manually.
About Spring Pistol Performance
Spring guns are extremely efficient under the right game conditions. Their FPS commonly chronos at around 250 FPS to 300 FPS with 0.12 gram airsoft BBs. These pistols typically fire lighter weight airsoft BBs because the coiled springs are less powerful than other styles of airsoft guns like rifles. Spring guns can generally shoot up to 120 feet or more with 0.12g BBs but precision decreases rapidly. Shooting conventional 0.20 gram weight airsoft BBs, you will probably have a range of about 60 to 80 feet with heightened precision.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Sidearm Information
AEG airsoft sidearms or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are definitely an option to bring into the field as a secondary weapon on the airsoft field. These automatic electric handguns are commonly powered by mini stick batteries in the weapon’s butt. They function much like an AEG gun and use pressured air pumped through electrically cycled cylinders and gearboxes to propel airsoft BBs quickly and rapidly.
AEG handgun magazines typically can hold about 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The pistols can launch airsoft BBs up to around 300 FPS using 0.12 gram airsoft BBs or 200 to 250 FPS with 0.20 gram airsoft BBs.
AEG Handgun Quality and Efficiency
AEG handgun quality has actually risen significantly over the last few years. The early gen guns were a bit sketchy and unreliable, but the latest designs have most of the issues worked out and make reliable airsoft secondary weapons. They can be modified with increased mag capacities and by accommodating bigger batteries.
A massive advantage of carrying an AEG pistol is that you have the ability to rewire the connections to use a larger capacity battery. Depending on the AEG handgun type, you can gain a substantial jump in efficiency by employing a two cell Lipo battery (2S Lipo) as a replacement for the stock battery.
What Airsoft Sidearm is Right for Me to Buy?
If you have over one-hundred dollars to spend on your airsoft handgun, check out a GBB handgun or automatic electric handgun. If you have around fifty to one-hundred dollars to buy a gun, evaluate a CO2 pistol or more affordable GBB pistol. If you are on a budget, you can still look for a long lasting airsoft handgun to use for the pistol games.
