Co2 Gas Blowback Airsoft Pistols

CO2 airsoft pistols use compressed carbon dioxide gas in order to drive airsoft pellets out of the pistol barrel at high speeds. Similar to the compressed air used in paintball, the compressed CO2 is contained in a canister that connects to the airsoft pistol through a valve. This valve is in turn connected to the trigger, and when the trigger is pulled a short burst of high speed CO2 flies into the pistol and then out of it through the least difficult path – the open barrel. This propulsive force is used to fire the airsoft pellet at a reliable, fast speed.

CO2 airsoft pistols are fundamentally different from spring airsoft pistols because they use an entirely different form of mechanical force to eject the airsoft pellet out the barrel. A spring can fire pellets reliably, but springs wear out over time – every time a spring is used to fire an airsoft pellet it deforms slightly, and over time force and accuracy decline.

The main advantage of CO2 airsoft pistols over spring fired models, and the main reason why any serious airsoft player should look at buying one of the many models available, is that gas canisters are not themselves part of the airsoft gun. They can be removed and replaced easily, and when the gas runs low they can be refilled and reused. Most canisters have an indicator that shows when the gas pressure is running low and therefore when a refill is needed. They won’t suffer from unpredictable but ever-slowing performance over time.

Another advantage: springs break. valves can break, but because there is less mechanical motion involved with opening and closing a valve it is less common. If a spring breaks inside an airsoft pistol it can take a lot of time to replace it. Not so with a gas powered pistol.

If you don't already know, let me inform you, the FN P90 is certainly one of the most sought after airsoft guns out there. This is a very powerful and slick looking rifle, which is not only easy to use, it is also ideal for both left and right handed people because the cocking handle can be found on both sides of the firearm. The P90 is a weapon that was originally designed for personnel that could not ideally use long arms. Such people may be tank crews or vehicle drivers. If you think about it a tank crew can’t just pop out of the hatch holding an M-16.

One of the most sought after Airsoft guns made by Tokyo Marui is the FN P90, but there are other popular P90's that are made by other big companies like the Classic Army P90 and the Jing Gong P90 TR. These are also great P90 airsoft guns that can certainly get the job done.

Aside from it being powerful and accurate, it also looks great. Though it does have a cocking lever this is purely aesthetic; seeing how the P90 airsoft gun uses an 8.4v battery. Another feature that you will want to pay mind to is the rail on the side that is for mounting a light or laser sight. The light will be great if you are engaging in an Airsoft war of some sort under the cover of night and need to see your way through a dark forest. This could also of course draw others to you, so you need to be careful about what exactly you mount on your P90.

Users have reported that the Iron Sights work reasonably well and the BBs in the magazines don’t rattle when you walk around. Not only will you be able to shoot extremely accurately, people will have a hard time finding you so long as you employ other stealth tactics, and don’t rely on the silent nature of the weapon that you carry.

Now for the big question: How does it hold up? Well, as far as we can tell the P90 airsoft gun from Marui is extremely durable and you won’t have to worry about it falling apart any time soon. Naturally you shouldn’t take it apart unless you have to, but it’s a decent product nonetheless. You can enjoy several hours of Airsoft games for years to come without worrying about the state of your firearm.
