Air Pistols come in various types, each with its own characteristics and purposes. Spring-Pistols: These pistols use a spring to compress air when cocked. CO2 Pistols: These pistols use small, disposable CO2 cartridges to propel pellets or BBs. PCP Pistols: These rely on compressed air stored in an onboard reservoir. They can be single-stroke, requiring manual pumping before each shot, or multi-stroke, allowing multiple shots before needing to be recharged. BB Pistols vs. Pellet Pistols: BB pistols are generally less accurate than pellet pistols but are cheaper and suitable for plinking and casual shooting. Pistol Pellets and not BB offer better accuracy and are preferred for target shooting and hunting applications. For more information about our Pistols, please see our Bolg or FAQs on this website.

NEW TO AIR PISTOLS

If you are new to Air Pistols, then we hope that the following information on Airguns will help you understand our hobby. First, let’s look at the different types of Air Pistols on offer, consisting of spring air pistols, Co2 Air Pistols, and PCP Air Pistols.

SPRING AIR PISTOLS

Spring Air Pistols, or springers, contain a coiled spring inside the chamber, which is compressed when you cock the gun. When you fire, the spring decompresses and pushes a piston, which forces air to propel the pellet out of the barrel. So, cocking the gun pressurises the air in the cylinder, and pulling the trigger decompresses the air and propels the pellet.

PCP AIR PISTOLS

PCP (Precharged Pneumatic) Air Pistols contain a cylinder with highly pressurised air. PCP air pistols are virtually recoilless and are very high-powered. However, they do have to be filled externally via hand pumps, air cylinders or compressors, which can be expensive to use.

CO2 AIR PISTOLS

CO2 Air Pistols work similarly to PCP air pistols, but instead of containing a cylinder with highly pressurised air, they use separate CO2 cartridges. When you fire, this releases a small amount of CO2, which pushes the pellet out of the barrel.

ABOUT AIR PISTOLS

Air Pistols are a type of Airguns and in the UK Air Guns have various uses, including target shooting, pest control, and recreational shooting. They are commonly used for small-game hunting and plinking. The cost of an Air Rifle in the UK depends on the type, brand, and features. Entry-level Air Pistols can start at around £70, and high-end models can cost over £250. Please note that in the UK, air pistols are not considered suitable for self-defence. The law strictly regulates the use of firearms for self-defence purposes, and air pistols are primarily designed for recreational and sporting activities. Using an air pistol for self-defence can lead to legal consequences. You are permitted to shoot on your land. You can also gain permission to shoot on other people’s land, but this has to be confirmed with the landowner. You are not allowed to shoot on any public property. There are now many shooting clubs in the UK where you can shoot, regardless of ability and the kit you have.
