Information on the Types of Airsoft Pistols
Learn about airsoft sidearms and how you can use them as backup weapons or as primary weapons on the airsoft playing field. Getting the right handgun and practicing with it can make an impact in improving your shots. Handguns, by nature, are short range airsoft guns. They are generally fashioned after actual guns or replicas of legitimate pistols. Lots of airsoft sidearms are fully licensed models of their real weapon equivalents. These airsoft guns can visually look and operate in the same ways identically to the real guns they are designed around while blasting airsoft BBs in place of authentic bullets.
There are a variety of airsoft handguns such as CO2, green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric gun handguns. Each of these varieties of sidearms come with benefits and differences associated with them. Learning more about the varieties of airsoft handguns allows you to choose which type is right for you and your airsoft gameplay style.
Details About CO2 Airsoft Sidearms
CO2 airsoft sidearms are among the most common and durable styles of pistols. They are all-season, all-weather pistols and function well in a lot of kinds of weather conditions and environments. These pistols use high pressure CO2 gas to move airsoft BBs down the gun barrel. The CO2 cartridge is normally housed in the pistol’s magazine in the handle.
These types of airsoft weapons are good for playing airsoft in cold and snowy temperatures because the high pressure CO2 gas is stored in the sealed cylinders and less susceptible to performance decreases with low temperature. This fact offers excellent FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the cold weather for example where other types of airsoft handguns like green gas stop performing or barely shoot BBs.
Information About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridge Cylinders
CO2 airsoft sidearms are powered by basic 12 gram CO2 cartridge cylinders. These cartridges resemble a metal cylinder and contain high pressure CO2 gas comprised of just one carbon atom and 2 oxygen atoms thus the molecular formula of “C + O2”.
They come sealed to keep the CO2 gas securely inside, however when they are opened (shooting them in an airsoft weapon 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 pistol target practice and use up the rest of the remaining gas.
If they are kept sealed, CO2 cartridges have a long storage life. They have a manufacturer’s expiry date usually listed on the box or cartridge cylinder, however they will maintain pressure for a prolonged time past this date if the cartridge seals are not punctured.
Green Gas Airsoft Sidearms
Green gas airsoft handguns are comparable to CO2 pistols, but they use green gas instead of CO2 cartridges. The impact on the battleground and green gas weapon performance is practically the same as CO2 pistols with the weapons at around 300+ FPS.
The green gas is housed in the handgun’s magazine and can commonly hold between 15 to 20+ 6mm airsoft BBs depending upon the pistol model. A series of valves, rubber gaskets, and o-rings keep the gas housed in the pistol magazine till the handgun’s trigger is squeezed. It is a good choice to fill up and top off your green gas in your mag each time you load it into the gun. Pistol-wielding airsoft players can even take surplus bottles of green gas or propane in the field for reloading magazines between breaks in the war or in-between games.
When playing with a green gas handgun on the airsoft field as a secondary or primary gun, additional handgun mags are encouraged for quickly reloading and getting back into the game. Having additional magazines on-hand allows you to re engage in the action in the course of firefights or while sweeping 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 normally not allowed to be used for indoor shooting. This is an essential safety guideline because of the close quarters proximity of airsoft players during shooting engagements. While green gas handguns can still fire airsoft BBs at about 300 FPS, the short handgun barrel helps to keep the joules and energy propelling the BB lower compared to AEGs, sniper rifles, and long guns.
About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are two various styles of green gas airsoft handguns. There are green gas blowback handguns or GBBs and non-blowback handguns. The green gas non-blowback airsoft pistols use a fixed slide which does not move.
About GBB and Green Gas Limits
Because the green gas or propane gas is held in the pistol mag by using rubber seals and gaskets, the cold can negatively impact these o-rings and cause the gas to leak out prior to shooting the handgun. This can make the airsoft BBs to simply land a few feet (like 10 feet in cold weather ) when the gun would usually shoot BBs over 100+ foot distances in warmer temps).
One option to fix this issue is to keep the GBB pistol magazines warmer by positioning them near your body before airsoft game play. This can help to warm up the rubber gaskets and help to seal in the green gas. It may also be worth buying a CO2 version of your preferred pistol if you truly prefer to play airsoft with a dependable airsoft pistol in the cold. The CO2 cylinders come sealed and these guns shoot better in sub-freezing temperatures and while playing in the snow.
Spring Airsoft Sidearms
Spring airsoft handguns are powered by strong coil springs that fire the airsoft BBs out of the gun barrel. They are normally one shot only. The manual action of reloading, cocking, and firing spring airsoft guns makes the weapon’s fire rate much slower than CO2 and GBB pistols. When going up against airsoft players on the airsoft field with upgraded rifles like fully auto airsoft AEG assault rifles and CO2, green gas, or GBB airsoft handguns, this can make spring airsoft guns entertaining to use, but less effective.
Spring sidearms work most effectively in springer battles where airsoft players can only use comparable, single shot spring handguns or as an alternative backup gun for CQB buildings when you can usually sneak up to other airsoft game players to get a guaranteed one-shot-one-kill. In the latter situation, a quick second follow-up shot will not be needed considering that the other person is already struck and out of the game or running back to respawn. Take care when engaging a number of airsoft players considering the gun only shoots as quick as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB by hand.
About Spring Handgun Efficiency
Spring guns are very efficient under the ideal game circumstances. Spring handguns can commonly shoot up to 120 feet or more with 0.12g BBs but the ability to hit targets decreases quickly.
About AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Handguns
AEG airsoft pistols or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are definitely an option to carry as a backup gun on the airsoft field. These automatic electric handguns are commonly powered by mini stick batteries in the weapon’s butt. They operate just like an AEG rifle and use compressed air forced through electrically cycled cylinders, pistons, and gearboxes to propel airsoft BBs quickly and rapidly.
AEG handgun magazines normally carry around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The handguns can launch airsoft BBs up to about 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 pistol quality has grown substantially over the last few years. The initial generations were a little bit questionable and unreliable, however the newer designs have the bugs worked out and make efficient airsoft secondary guns. They can be further modified with increased magazine capacities as well as accommodating bigger batteries.
A huge benefit of buying an AEG handgun is that you have the opportunity to rewire the battery wires to use a more substantial battery with higher mAh. Based on the AEG pistol style, you may be able to gain a substantial leap in functionality by utilizing a 2 cell Lipo battery (2S Lipo) in place of the stock battery. Take care of modifying the parts and the gun’s wires since you need to take into account the volts, mAh, and loads of the batteries. Ask a pro weapon service technician at your nearest airsoft store or shop if you have modding inquiries.
Which Airsoft Handgun is Best for Me to Play with?
Looking for the best airsoft pistol for you depends upon how much you can afford to spend, how often you wish to play airsoft with it, and where you decide to play. Consider a green gas blowback handgun or AEG handgun if you have more than $100 to invest on your airsoft pistol. These are usually the top-tier guns, have the best efficiency, and could be a good airsoft gun to invest in. Take a look at a CO2 handgun or more affordable GBB pistol if you have around more than $50 but less than $100 to buy a gun. These will still finish the job and can be tough sidearms. Look for a lower end CO2 or spring handgun if you have less than $50. You can still find a heavy-duty airsoft handgun to use for the pistol airsoft guns.
