Airsoft Handgun Design Details
Find information about airsoft handguns and sidearms and how you can use them as backup guns or as primary weapons on the airsoft playing field. Many airsoft pistols are fully certified models of their authentic weapon equivalents and run and look in the same ways while shooting airsoft BBs rather than real bullets.
There are a variety of airsoft handguns such as CO2, green gas or propane (blowback and non-blowback), spring powered, and AEG automatic electric gun sidearms. Each of these kinds of pistols come with negatives and positives related to them. Finding out about the styles of airsoft sidearms lets you choose which type is right for you and your airsoft play style.
CO2 Airsoft Pistols
CO2 airsoft pistols are one of the most dependable and standard types of handguns. These handguns use high pressure CO2 gas to launch airsoft BBs out of the weapon barrel.
These kinds of airsoft guns are excellent for playing in cold and snowy temperatures since the pressurized CO2 gas is stored in the sealed cylinders and less prone to variation with low temperature. This provides good FPS and shot consistency while playing airsoft in the winter for example where other types of pistols like green gas cease to work or barely fire BBs.
Additional Info About CO2 Gas and CO2 Cylinders
CO2 airsoft sidearms are powered by basic 12 gram CO2 cartridges. These cartridges resemble a shiny steel cylinder and contain high pressured CO2 gas made up of 1 carbon atom and 2 oxygen atoms, for this reason the molecular formula is “C + O2 “. These atoms are bonded in the following order “O= C =O”. The gas is kept in the 12 gram cylinders under really high pressure of near ~ 800psi that converts to 55bar.
The CO2 cartridge cylinders are not refillable and you can commonly order them in bundles of 12, 20, 50, or 100 12 gram CO2 cartridges. They come sealed to retain the CO2 gas safely within, but the moment they are punctured (firing them inside of an airsoft weapon breaks the seal) the cartridges will begin to lose pressure if they are not expended. You need to attempt to use up the entire CO2 cartridge the same day you open the seal. Use the chance to do some handgun target practice and use up the rest of the extra gas if the airsoft games end and you still have CO2 gas left. There is no gas level indication on the cartridge so you need to shoot up until the gun stops firing airsoft BBs.
CO2 cartridges can be stored for a longtime if the cylinders are stored sealed. They are made with the manufacturer’s expiry date normally marked on the box or cartridge, however, they can stay pressurized for a prolonged period past this date if the cartridge seals are not tampered with.
Green Gas Airsoft Sidearm Details
Green gas airsoft pistols are similar to CO2 handguns, but they do not use CO2 cartridges. The operational impact on the battlefield and green gas weapon efficiency is practically the same as CO2 pistols with the guns around 300+ FPS.
The propane gas is stored in the pistol’s magazine which can usually hold around 15 to 20+ airsoft BBs depending on the handgun type. A series of valves, rubberized gaskets, and silicone seals keep the gas pressurized in the mag till the pistol’s trigger is pulled.
When playing with a green gas sidearm on the airsoft field as a secondary or main weapon, additional handgun mags are recommended for rapidly reloading and engaging the op force. Having extra mags helps you join in the action in the course of firefights or while sweeping buildings in CQB (close quarters combat) room-to-room fighting.
Green gas pistols are perfect for CQB at airsoft fields considering that rifles and full-sized AEGs are generally not enabled to be used during indoor game play. This is a safety regulation due to the close quarters distance of players during the shooting engagements and potential for players to get hurt. While green gas pistols still shoot airsoft BBs at around 300 FPS, the shorter handgun barrel assists to keep the joules and energy sending the BB at a lower level compared to AEG airsoft rifles, sniper rifles, and other long guns.
About Green Gas Blowback (GBB) VS Green Gas Non-blowback
There are 2 different types of green gas airsoft handguns. There are green gas blowback pistols or GBBs. The green gas non-blowback airsoft pistols have a fixed slide which does not move.
About GBB and Green Gas Limits
While green gas usually can be used effectively on the airsoft field, it does have drawbacks. For example, when they are used in the winter in the snow or in colder temperatures (like less than 32 deg F). Given that the green gas or propane gas is stored in the pistol mag by rubber seals, o-rings, and gaskets, the cold can affect the seals and make the stored gas to leak out prior to firing the pistol. The decrease in pressure can make the airsoft BBs to only shoot several feet (like 10 feet in cold temps ) when the pistol would normally shoot BBs over 100+ foot distances in warmer temperatures).
One solution to this issue is to try to keep the GBB handgun magazines warmer by holding them next to your body just before the game play. This can help to warm up the seals and valves and better seal in the green gas. If you really want to have fun with a dependable airsoft handgun in the cold, it may also be better to check out a CO2 variation of your preferred pistol. The CO2 cylinders come sealed and the gun shoots better in sub-freezing conditions and while playing in the snow.
Spring Airsoft Handgun Details
Spring airsoft pistols are powered by strong springs with irregular pitches that send the BBs out of the gun barrel. The manual functioning of firing, reloading, and cocking spring handguns makes the fire rate much slower than CO2, green gas, and GBB handguns.
Spring guns work best in springer battles where participants can only use related, single shot spring handguns or as a close quarters backup weapon for CQB buildings and MOUT sites when you can usually sneak up to other airsoft participants to get an assured one-shot-one-kill. In the latter circumstance, a fast second follow-up shot is not really needed since the other opponent is already hit by the first BB and out of the game play or moving back to respawn. Look out when fighting numerous opponents considering that the spring gun just fires as fast as you can re-chamber an airsoft BB by hand.
About Spring Pistol Efficiency
Spring guns are extremely useful under the appropriate game conditions. Their FPS generally chronos at about 250 FPS to 300 FPS with lighter 0.12g airsoft BBs. These guns usually fire lighter weight airsoft BBs since the coiled springs are less powerful than other types of airsoft guns. Spring handguns can typically shoot up to 120 feet or more with 0.12g BBs however the ability to engage targets reduces quickly. Choosing standard 0.20 gram weight airsoft BBs, you will most likely have a range of about 60 to 80 feet with enhanced accuracy.
AEG Automatic Electric Airsoft Handgun Facts
AEG airsoft pistols or AEPs (automatic electric pistols) are also an option to bring into the field as a backup weapon on the airsoft field. These automatic electric pistols are commonly powered by mini stick batteries in the gun’s handle. They operate similar to an AEG rifle and use forced air pumped through electrically cycled gearboxes and cylinders to fire airsoft BBs quickly and very quickly at that.
AEG handgun magazines normally hold around 20 to 30 airsoft BBs. The pistols can shoot airsoft BBs up to around 300 FPS with 0.12g airsoft BBs or 200 to 250 FPS using 0.20g airsoft BBs. The electric battery powered gearbox system can shoot around 700+ 6mm BBs per minute which depends on if you have enough spare mags to reload and the battery holds out that long. These AEP handguns can effectively shoot airsoft BBs at around 150 foot distances.
AEG Pistol Quality and Performance
AEG handgun quality has actually risen significantly recently. The initial gens were a bit questionable and unreliable, but the latest versions have the bugs resolved and make reliable airsoft secondary guns. They can be modified with enhanced magazine storage capacities along with accommodating bigger batteries.
A huge benefit of carrying an AEG handgun is that you have the opportunity to rewire the connectors to use an enhanced battery with longer life. Depending upon the AEG handgun model, you are able to get a large jump in performance utilizing a two cell Lipo battery (like an 2S Lipo) in place of the standard battery. Be careful with modifying the elements and the gun’s wires because you need to consider the voltages, mAh, and electrical loads of the batteries. Ask an expert airsoft specialist at your local airsoft store if you have modding inquiries.
Which Airsoft Pistol is Best for Me to Buy?
If you have over one-hundred dollars to spend on your airsoft pistol, take a look at a green gas blowback pistol or AEG handgun. If you have around fifty to one-hundred dollars to upgrade your gun, look at a good quality CO2 handgun or less expensive GBB handgun. If your gun budget is lower, you can still get a long lasting airsoft handgun to use for the pistol games.
