Airsoft Handgun Type Information
Find information about airsoft sidearms, pistols, and handguns and how you can use them as backup guns or as main weapons on the airsoft playing field. Lots of airsoft pistols are completely accredited editions of their actual gun counterparts and look and run in the very same ways while shooting airsoft BBs rather than authentic bullets.
There are a variety of airsoft sidearms including CO2, green gas or propane (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric gun pistols. Each of these forms of sidearms has positives and negatives associated with them. Learning about the varieties of airsoft handguns helps you decide which type is right for you and your airsoft play style.
About CO2 Airsoft Handguns
CO2 airsoft pistols are one of the most common and durable types of sidearms. These handguns use CO2 stored in small cylinders to shoot airsoft BBs out of the handgun barrel.
These kinds of airsoft weapons are good for playing in cooler temperatures due to the fact that the compressed CO2 gas is stored in the sealed cylinders and less sensitive to FPS decreases with temperature levels. This offers very good FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the winter months for instance where other sorts of airsoft handguns like green gas stop performing or hardly shoot BBs.
Info About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridges
CO2 airsoft handguns are powered by typical 12 gram CO2 cartridge cylinders. These cartridges look like a chrome cylinder and store high pressure CO2 gas consisting of 1 carbon atom and a couple of oxygen atoms hence the molecular formula of “C + O2”.
The CO2 cylinders cannot be refilled and you can usually order them in packs of 12, 20, 50, or 100 12 gram CO2 cartridge sets. They come sealed to preserve the CO2 gas securely within, but when they are opened (shooting them in an airsoft weapon breaks the seal) cartridges will start to lose pressure if they are not used up. You need to try to deplete the whole CO2 cartridge the same day you open the seal. Use the opportunity to do some pistol target practice and use up the rest of the additional gas if the airsoft games end and you still have CO2 gas left. There is no gas level guide on the cartridge so you have to shoot up until the pistol stops shooting BBs.
CO2 cartridges can be stored for a while if the cylinders are stored sealed. They come with a supplier’s use by date usually noted on the box or cylinder, however they will maintain pressure for an extended period past this date if the cartridge seals are not damaged.
Green Gas and Propane Airsoft Sidearm Details
Green gas airsoft handguns are comparable to CO2 handguns, however they use green gas instead of CO2 cartridges. The operational impact on the airsoft battlefield and green gas weapon performance is virtually the same as CO2 handguns with the guns at about 300+ FPS.
The green gas is sealed in the pistol’s magazine which can typically hold roughly 15 to 20+ airsoft BBs depending upon the pistol model. A set of valves, rubber stoppers, and o-rings keep the propane gas sealed in the pistol magazine prior to when the handgun’s trigger is pulled. It is a good plan to top off and fill up your propane supply in the pistol mag each time you reload it. Pistol-wielding gamers can even carry surplus bottles of green gas or propane in the field for refilling mags in-between lulls in the battle or in-between games.
When using a green gas sidearm on the airsoft field as a backup or primary gun, additional pistol mags are suggested for rapidly reloading and engaging the op force. Having extra mags helps you re-engage in the action in the middle of firefights or while clearing structures in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fights.
Green gas pistols are great for CQB at airsoft fields because rifles, long guns, and full-sized AEGs are typically not allowed to be used during indoor shooting. This is a safety regulation because of the close quarters distance of players during the shooting engagements and potential for players to get hurt. While green gas handguns still shoot airsoft BBs at about 300 FPS, the short pistol barrel aids to keep the joules and energy forcing the BB at a lower level compared to airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and other long guns.
About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are 2 various kinds of green gas airsoft handguns. First, there are green gas blowback pistols or GBBs. These handguns work like a real handgun with the pistol’s slide “blowing back” and moving with every shot. The propane gas induces the slide to cycle each time when a brand-new airsoft BB is loaded into the chamber. This cycling is really cool, however the guns frequently cost more and potentially have more parts that can break. The green gas non-blowback airsoft handguns use a fixed slide which does not move. The non-blowback guns commonly cost less than GBBs. Efficiency is about the same between the two styles of green gas handguns.
About GBB and Green Gas Limits
Because the green gas or propane is stored in the mag by rubber o-rings, seals, and silicone gaskets, cold weather can impact these gaskets and cause the stored gas to leak out before shooting. The lack of pressure can make the airsoft BBs to merely land a number of feet (like 10 feet in the cold ) when the pistol would typically shoot 6mm BBs over 100+ foot distances in warmer temps).
One fix for this problem is to try to keep the GBB pistol mags warmer by positioning them next to a heater or by your body before airsoft game play. This can help to warm the rubber gaskets and help to seal in the green gas. If you really want to use a reliable airsoft pistol in the cold, it might also be worth buying a CO2 version of your favorite pistol. The CO2 cartridges come sealed and these guns shoot much better in sub-freezing temperatures and while playing in the snow.
Facts About Spring Airsoft Sidearms
Spring airsoft handguns are powered by powerful springs that fire the airsoft BBs down the pistol barrel. They are generally only able to shoot one BB. The manual functions of reloading, cocking, and shooting spring pistols makes the fire rate much slower than CO2 and GBB handguns. This makes spring airsoft pistols interesting to use, but they are usually less practical when encountering competitors on the airsoft field with upgraded airsoft guns, auto airsoft AEG rifles, SMGs, sniper rifles, and CO2 or GBB airsoft handguns.
Spring sidearms work the best in springer wars where opponents can exclusively use comparable, single shot spring pistols or as a close quarters backup weapon for CQB buildings and MOUT sites when you can frequently surprise other airsoft opponents to get an assured one-shot-one-kill. In the latter scenario, a quick second followup shot isn’t called for since the other player is already struck and out of the gameplay or heading back to respawn. When engaging several opponents because the weapon simply fires as fast as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB manually, be careful.
About Spring Pistol Efficiency
Spring pistols are really effective under the most ideal scenarios. Spring guns like pistols can normally fire up to 120 feet or more with 0.12 gram BBs however accuracy decreases rapidly.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Pistol Details
AEG airsoft sidearms or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are also an option to carry as a backup weapon on the airsoft field. These automatic electric handguns are normally powered by mini stick batteries in the gun’s handle. They work much like an AEG SMG and use compressed air pumped through electrically cycled pistons, gearboxes, and cylinders to fire airsoft BBs out of the barrel and very quickly at that.
AEG pistol magazines generally can carry about 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The handguns can shoot airsoft BBs approximately about 300 FPS when loaded with 0.12g airsoft BBs or about 200 to 250 FPS when loaded with 0.20 gram airsoft BBs. The electric gearbox system can shoot around 700+ BBs per minute which depends on if you have enough spare magazines to reload (after every 20 to 30 shots) and the battery maintains its charge that long. These handguns can precisely fire airsoft BBs at around 150 foot distances.
AEG Pistol Quality and Efficiency
AEG handgun quality has actually grown significantly in the last few years. The initial gen guns were a little bit sketchy and undependable, however the more recent models have the problems resolved and make reliable airsoft backup guns. They can be upgraded with increased mag storage capacities and by accommodating bigger batteries.
A huge benefit of carrying an AEG pistol is that you have the ability to rewire the connections to use an enhanced battery with longer life. Based on the AEG pistol version, you are able to get a big jump in efficiency by utilizing a 2 cell Lipo battery (2S Lipo) instead of the stock battery. Take extra precautions when changing the parts and the gun’s wires because you need to think about the volts, mAh, and electrical loads of the battery. If you have customization concerns, ask a qualified professional airsoft gun technician at your closest airsoft store.
Which Airsoft Handgun is Best for Me?
Selecting the ideal airsoft handgun for you depends on how much you want to spend, how much you plan to play airsoft with it, and where you hope to play. Look into a GBB pistol or AEG handgun if you have more than $100 to invest on your airsoft pistol. These kinds of guns are normally the top-tier guns, have the most effective efficiency, and are usually a good investment. If you can afford around more than fifty but less than one-hundred dollars to use for your gun, take a look at a CO2 pistol or cheaper green gas blowback handgun. These guns will still do the job and are pretty durable sidearms. Look for a low end CO2 or spring pistol if you have fifty dollars or less. You can still get a tough airsoft handgun to use for the handgun games.
