Airsoft Handgun Type Information
Learn about airsoft handguns and sidearms and how you can use them as extra weapons or as main weapons on the airsoft playing field. A large number of airsoft pistols are fully licensed models of their genuine firearm counterparts and function and look in the very same ways while shooting airsoft BBs rather than actual bullets.
There are a few types of airsoft sidearms consisting of CO2, green gas (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric pistols. Each of these forms of pistols has positives and negatives related to them. Learning about the styles of airsoft pistols helps you decide which type is right for you and your airsoft game play style.
CO2 Airsoft Pistol Details
CO2 airsoft sidearms are one of the most heavy-duty and standard types of pistols. These handguns use sealed CO2 gas cylinders to propel airsoft BBs out of the pistol barrel.
These forms of airsoft weapons are excellent for playing airsoft in cold weather because the high pressure CO2 gas is less sensitive to performance decreases caused by low temperature. This fact gives CO2 airsoft pistols great FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the winter months for example where other kinds of pistols like green gas stuffer from low performance or barely shoot airsoft BBs.
About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cartridge Cylinders
CO2 airsoft pistols are powered by standard 12 gram CO2 cartridges. These cartridges look like a chrome cylinder and hold high-pressure CO2 gas composed of just one carbon atom and 2 oxygen atoms thus the molecular formula of “C + O2”.
The CO2 cylinders are not multiple-use and you can commonly purchase them in bundles of 12, 20, 50, or 100 12 gram CO2 cartridges. They come sealed to preserve the CO2 gas securely within, once they are opened (firing them in an airsoft pistol breaks the cartridge seal) they will begin to lose pressure if they are not expended. You should attempt to expend the whole CO2 cartridge the same day you open the seal. If the airsoft matches end and you still have CO2 gas leftover, use the chance to do some handgun accuracy and target practice and expend the rest of the excess gas. There is no gas level indicator on the cartridge so you have to shoot until the weapon stops shooting airsoft BBs.
CO2 cartridges have a long storage life if they are stored sealed. They do have a supplier’s best used by date typically printed on the box or cartridge, but they will probably stay pressurized for a long time past this date if the cartridge seal is not broken.
Green Gas Airsoft Pistols
Green gas airsoft sidearms resemble CO2 handguns, but they do not use CO2 cartridges. As an alternative, they use green gas or propane gas for propellant to shoot 6mm airsoft pellets. The operational impact on game play and green gas handgun efficiency is essentially the same as CO2 pistols with the guns shooting up to 300+ feet per second (FPS). Shots are quickly fired in semi-automatic or fully-automatic shooting modes and accurate at short to mid-range proximities.
The green gas is held in the handgun’s magazine and can frequently hold around 15 to 20+ airsoft BBs depending on the handgun model. A series of valves, silicone gaskets, and o-rings keep the green gas housed in the pistol mag up until the pistol’s trigger is pulled. It is a great plan to top off and refill your green gas reserves in the mag each time you load it into the pistol. Pistol-wielding gamers can even bring supplemental bottles of green gas in the field for refilling magazines between lulls in the fight or in-between missions.
When bringing a green gas handgun on the airsoft field as a main or backup weapon, additional handgun mags are encouraged for quickly reloading and engaging opponents. Having extra mags on-hand helps you join in the action in the middle of firefights or while clearing structures in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fights.
Green gas handguns are optimal for CQB at airsoft fields because long guns and full-sized AEGs are usually not allowed to be used for indoor shooting. This is an essential safety standard because of the close range distance of airsoft players during shooting engagements and the potential for players to be injured. While green gas handguns can still fire airsoft BBs at about 300 FPS, the short pistol barrel aids to keep the joules and energy forcing the BB lower compared to AEGs, sniper rifles, and long guns.
Thinking About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are two various kinds of green gas airsoft handguns. First, there are green gas blowback handguns or GBBs. These guns run like a real pistol with the pistol slide “blowing back” and cycling with every shot. Each time a brand-new airsoft BB is chambered, the gas induces the slide to cycle. The result is extremely cool, but the GBB weapons typically are more expensive and potentially have more which can break. The green gas non-blowback airsoft pistols have a stationary slide which does not move. The non-blowback guns generally cost less than GBBs. Performance is around the same when comparing the two styles of green gas pistols.
About GBB and Green Gas Limitations
While green gas usually performs extremely well on the airsoft field, it does have restrictions. When green gas and GBB guns are used during the winter playing in the snow or in colder weather (like under 32 deg F). Considering that the green gas or propane is stored in the pistol mag using rubber seals and gaskets, cold temperatures can affect the seals and cause the stored gas to escape before firing the handgun. The decrease in pressure can cause the airsoft BBs to only shoot a couple of feet (like 10 feet in the cold ) when it would usually shoot BBs over 100+ feet in warmer weather).
One option to this problem is to make the GBB handgun magazines warmer by putting them next to your body or near a heat source just before the airsoft game play. If you really want to play with a reliable airsoft pistol in the cold weather, it might also be worth getting a CO2 style of your preferred pistol.
Spring Airsoft Pistols
Spring airsoft pistols are powered by powerful springs that propel the BBs out of the handgun barrel. The manual functions of cocking, reloading, and firing spring guns makes the fire rate much slower than CO2 and GBB airsoft guns.
Spring sidearms and guns work best in springer wars where airsoft players can solely use comparable, single shot spring pistols or as a close quarters combat backup weapon for CQB settings when you can frequently sneak up to other airsoft game players to get an assured one-shot-one-kill. In the latter circumstance, a quick second followup shot is not required given that the other opponent is now hit and out of the gameplay or going back to respawn. Be careful when engaging several opponents considering the gun just fires as quick as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB manually.
About Spring Handgun Efficiency
Spring pistols are remarkably reliable under the correct situations. Spring guns can usually shoot accurately up to 120 feet or more with 0.12 gram BBs however the ability to engage targets decreases quickly.
Details About AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Pistols
AEG airsoft handguns or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are definitely a good choice to use as a secondary gun on the airsoft field. These automatic electric pistols are normally powered by mini stick batteries in the gun’s grip. They work just like an AEG gun and use pressurized air with electrically cycled pistons and gearboxes to propel airsoft BBs out of the barrel and very rapidly at that.
AEG pistol mags usually can hold around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The pistols can fire 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 handgun quality has actually grown substantially in the last few years. The earliest gen guns were a bit undependable and questionable, however the more recent models have most of the bugs resolved and make reliable airsoft secondary guns. They can be further upgraded with maximized mag capacities along with accommodating bigger batteries.
A large benefit of carrying an AEG handgun is that you have the ability to rewire the battery connectors to use a larger battery. Depending on the AEG pistol model, you can get a large jump in performance by using a two cell Lipo battery (like an 2S Lipo) as an alternative for the stock battery.
What Airsoft Sidearm is Right for Me?
If you have over $100 to use to buy your airsoft handgun, you may want to consider a green gas blowback handgun or automatic electric handgun. If you have between fifty to one-hundred dollars to upgrade your gun, evaluate a good quality CO2 handgun or less expensive GBB handgun. If you are on a budget, you can still choose a long lasting airsoft pistol to use for the pistol games.
