Airsoft Sniper Rifle Spring vs Gas

Airsoft Sniper Rifle Spring vs Gas

While gas powered and spring powered airsoft sniper rifles both offer pretty similar performance, there are a few things to be considered. For example, you never have to buy anything other than airsoft BBs for a spring airsoft rifle, but you have to buy green gas (or propane with the right adapter) to power a gas airsoft rifle.

Again, the performance between gas and spring airsoft rifles is pretty similar, but one important thing to consider is that the temperature can affect the velocity of a gas powered airsoft gun. Generally this wont be much of an issue though, unless you play somewhere that is abnormally cold. One benefit of spring airsoft rifles is that they always perform exactly the same regardless of the temperature.Also, as far as price goes, spring airsoft sniper rifles are always cheaper than the gas powered ones. The difference in price is usually about $40 - $80 or so. So if you combine this with the fact that you have to buy gas on an on-going basis (assuming that you have a gas powered airsoft gun), it becomes pretty obvious that a spring powered airsoft rifle is a much cheaper choice.

When it comes to appearance, you cant really tell spring and gas powered airsoft sniper rifles apart, other than by closely examining their magazines. The magazines are totally different between the 2 guns, since the gas airsoft rifles actually store their gas inside of the magazine, while spring powered airsoft guns only store BBs inside of their magazines.

All of the spring airsoft sniper rifles are bolt action, single shot guns. In fact, they can ONLY be single shot, since you have to cock back a heavy spring each time you shoot them. Most of the gas powered airsoft sniper rifles are bolt action (single shot) too, but they can also be semi-auto. This is a huge advantage that the gas powered airsoft sniper rifles have over the spring powered sniper rifles.

Another benefit of gas powered airsoft sniper rifles is that they generally shoot at a higher velocity than the spring powered sniper rifles. Gas airsoft rifles usually shoot around 60-80 FPS faster than spring powered airsoft rifles (assuming that the guns are left stock, and have not been modified at all).

Accuracy is exactly the same between spring and gas powered airsoft sniper rifles. However, in some cases you may want to use heavier airsoft BBs for gas powered airsoft guns, due to the fact that they usually shoot a littler faster than spring airsoft guns (and the faster your airsoft gun shoots, the heavier the BB that you will have to use in order to maintain consistent accuracy).

When it comes time to decide whether to go with a gas powered or spring powered airsoft sniper rifle, just remember that each one has its strengths and weaknesses. If you want a semi-automatic airsoft sniper rifle, then you will have to go with gas powered one. If you want to save money, and never want to worry about buying gas, then go with a spring powered sniper rifle.
