How to Choose an Airsoft Handgun
Find information about airsoft 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 fully approved and licensed versions of their genuine gun equivalents and look and function in the very same ways while shooting airsoft BBs instead of authentic bullets.
There are a variety of airsoft pistols such as CO2, green gas or propane (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric gun handguns. Each of these kinds of handguns has negatives and positives related to them. Finding out about the types of airsoft pistols allows you to choose which type is right for you and your airsoft gameplay style.
CO2 Airsoft Sidearms
CO2 airsoft guns are one of the most heavy-duty and standard types of handguns. These handguns use high pressure CO2 gas to move airsoft BBs out of the pistol barrel.
These forms of airsoft guns are great choices for airsoft games in colder weather conditions since the compressed CO2 gas is less susceptible to FPS decreases by low temperature. This fact offers exceptional FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the cold weather for example where other varieties of airsoft handguns like green gas stuffer from low performance or hardly fire pellets.
Info About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridge Cylinders
CO2 airsoft guns are powered by regular 12 gram CO2 cartridges. These cartridges look similar to a metallic cylinder and contain high pressured CO2 gas consisting of a single carbon atom and two oxygen atoms, thus the molecular formula of “C + O2 “. These atoms are connected in the following sequence “O= C =O”. The gas is held in the 12 gram cartridge cylinders under really high pressure of near ~ 800psi that correlates to 55bar.
They come sealed to keep the CO2 gas safely within, however once they are opened (shooting them inside of an airsoft weapon breaks the 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 remaining gas.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges can be stored for a longtime. They are made with a maker’s best used by date usually printed on the package or cartridge, but they may stay pressurized for a very long period of time past this date if the cartridge seals are not broken.
Green Gas and Propane Airsoft Handgun Details
Green gas airsoft sidearms function similarly to CO2 pistols, but they do not use CO2 cartridges. Alternatively, they use green gas or propane gas for propellant to propel the airsoft BBs. The operational impact on the battlefield and green gas pistol efficiency is just about the same as CO2 handguns with the guns shooting up to about 300+ feet per second (FPS). Shots are efficiently fired in semi-automatic or automatic firing modes and accurate at shorter to mid-range ranges.
The green gas is held in the handgun’s mag which can often hold around 15 to 20+ BBs depending upon the handgun design. A bunch of valves, rubberized stoppers, and seals keep the green gas sealed in the magazine up to the point the pistol’s trigger is squeezed. It is a great plan to top off and refill the propane reserves in your pistol mag each time you reload it. Pistol-wielding airsoft players can additionally carry extra bottles of propane gas in the field for refilling magazines between lulls in the fight or in-between missions.
When carrying a green gas pistol on the airsoft field or arena as a backup or main weapon, extra handgun magazines are encouraged for quickly reloading. Having extra mags helps you re-engage in the action in the middle of firefights or while sweeping structures in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room battles.
Green gas pistols are ideal for CQB at airsoft fields considering that rifles, long guns, and full-sized AEGs are normally not permitted to be used during indoor gameplay. This is a safety rule because of the close range distance of airsoft players during shooting engagements and the potential for players to be hurt. While green gas pistols still fire airsoft BBs at around 300 FPS, the shorter pistol barrel helps to keep the joules and energy pushing 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 different varieties of green gas airsoft pistols. There are green gas blowback pistols or GBBs and non-blowback pistols. The green gas non-blowback airsoft handguns use a stationary slide which does not move.
About GBB and Green Gas Limits
While green gas normally can be used effectively, it does have limitations. When green gas and GBB guns are used throughout the winter airsoft games in the snow or in colder weather conditions (like below 32 degrees F). Since the green gas or propane is held in the mag by silicone seals, o-rings, and gaskets, low temperatures can impact these seals and make the gas to escape before shooting. The depressurized gas can cause the airsoft BBs to only shoot several feet (like 10 feet in cold temps ) when the gun would normally shoot airsoft BBs over 100+ feet in warmer weather).
One fix for this issue is to make the GBB handgun magazines warmer by holding them near your body prior to game play. This can help to heat up the seals and help to seal in the green gas. It may also be worth buying a CO2 version of your favorite handgun if you actually prefer to play with a dependable airsoft handgun in the cold. The CO2 cartridges come sealed and the gun will shoot better in sub-freezing temperatures and while playing in the snow.
Spring Airsoft Pistol Information
Spring airsoft guns are powered by powerful coil springs that send the BBs out of the handgun barrel. The manual functioning of firing, reloading, and cocking spring handguns makes the fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB airsoft guns.
Spring sidearms and guns perform best in springer wars where opponents can only use related, single shot spring pistols or as an alternative weapon for CQB buildings and MOUT sites when you can usually surprise other airsoft participants to get a guaranteed one-shot-one-kill. In the latter situation, a fast 2nd followup shot is not called for due to the fact that the other opponent is now struck and out of the game play or going back to respawn. Beware when engaging a number of players since the spring airsoft gun only fires as quickly as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB by hand.
About Spring Pistol Efficiency
Spring handguns are remarkably reliable under the most ideal scenarios and airsoft games. Their FPS generally chronos at about 250 FPS to 300 FPS with 0.12g airsoft BBs. These handguns typically fire lighter weight airsoft BBs because the springs are less powerful than other kinds of airsoft guns like rifles. Spring guns can normally be accurate at up to 120 feet or more with 0.12 gram BBs however accuracy is reduced quickly. Using conventional 0.20g weight airsoft BBs, you will probably have a decreased range of around 60 to 80 feet with heightened precision.
Facts About AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Sidearms
AEG airsoft handguns or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are also an option to bring as a secondary weapon on the airsoft field. These automatic electric pistols are commonly powered by mini stick batteries in the pistol’s grip. They work similar to an AEG gun and use forced air forced through electrically cycled cylinders, pistons, and gearboxes to fire airsoft BBs quickly and rapidly.
AEG handgun magazines normally can hold around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The handguns can shoot airsoft BBs up to around 300 FPS using 0.12 gram airsoft BBs or around 200 to 250 FPS when loaded with 0.20g airsoft BBs. The electrical gearbox system can shoot around 700+ 6mm BBs per minute assuming you have enough spare mags to reload with and the battery lasts that long. These pistols can precisely shoot airsoft BBs at around 150 foot ranges.
AEG Handgun Quality and Efficiency
AEG handgun quality has actually grown considerably in the last few years. The early generation AEP guns were a bit undependable and sketchy, however the latest versions have most of the issues resolved and make reliable airsoft secondary weapons. They can be further modded with increased magazine capacities as well as accommodating bigger batteries.
A big benefit of carrying an AEG pistol is that you have the power to rewire the connectors to use a more substantial battery. Depending on the AEG pistol style, you can get a huge jump in functionality by taking advantage of a 2 cell Lipo battery (2S Lipo) instead of the stock AEP battery.
Which Airsoft Handgun is Right for Me to Buy?
Looking for the best airsoft pistol for you depends upon how much you can afford to spend, how often you would like to play airsoft with it, and where you plan to play. Consider a green gas blowback pistol or automatic electric AEP handgun if you have more than one-hundred dollars to invest on your airsoft pistol. These are typically the best of the best, have good performance, and are usually an excellent gun to get. If you have about more than $50 but less than $100 to spend, check out a CO2 pistol or a more affordable green gas blowback pistol. These will still get the job done and will be tough sidearms. If you have $50 or less, research a cheap CO2 or spring handgun. You can still buy a long lasting airsoft pistol to use for the pistol games.
