what is the difference between the air pistols and the co-2 bb guns for a 16 year old boy who loves to target shoot, thanks

The difference is that air pistols have the lowest feet per second shots than the co2 cartridges. In other words, air pistols rely on spring action which causes the pellets to travel around 250 to 300 feet per second, where co2 cartridges propel the pellets at greater than 400+ feet per second. While air soft pistols may not kill small animals, the co2 may kill and cause damage if accidently shot at windows, objects, and or other living things, so hope that helps and always, be safe and careful, Good luck!

Its a tad heavier than a tippman but it shouldn't be big for a 10 yr old, unless he is smaller than average kids at that age. Other than that if he is beginning paintball he should atleast play with the tippman 98 custom because it's durable and there are less problems with it. Not trying to lure you away from this gun, which this one is indeed amazing too

Honestly no if you want a good co2 bbgun look at the black ops co2 bbguns i have the big air sniper rifle and i love it

Not Co2. Easy to pump and load, and fun to shoot. Not accurate by "serious" air pistol standards, but plenty accurate for plinking.

I don't know what an airsoft bullet is but I use either lead BBs or non-leaded BBs. Of course lead BBs have more impact. The C41 is a great little pistol.

I really have no idea. we bought a few airsoft guns including this one for our 2 boys and they were all complete garbage they tore up with in a few days and either wouldnt charge up or wouldnt shoot. And all the attatchments are junk. Stay away!!!!!!!!

It shoots 6mm plastic Airsoft BBs. .20, .25 or .28g BBs are all good. Stay away from .12g BBs. Also, it uses green gas not Co2.

I would recommend sticking to standard BB's and Pellets and only shoot at targets. If your intent is to use the plastic BB's and this as an Airsoft gun, CO2 powered plastic BB's are going to hurt!

We are using metal BBs. My son was reading the directions and he said that you can buy Airsoft BBs but they're the really small ones. They have to be the same size as metal BBs.

Air guns (and firearms) can be picky as to what shoots best. My old Crosman prefers their pellets but you're just going to have to experiment. That's why they make sample packs of pellets. Good Luck.

I'd say no even though I really like this airgun. I don't think it's the best starter for a kid that young. Maybe you're ok with something this powerful but even then there are others that are lighter and easier to cock. I know the Crossman Nitro is much easier to handle. I'm sure there are others but my friend has a Nitro and if I had to pick one for a kid it would be that one over mine. Either way, I'm assuming you know this isn't the same as handing a kid a bb gun. This can do some damage even at a pretty long range.

Airsoft guns and snakes... Not gonna work. You'd be better off running at it bare handed lol Get an actual BB gun or a .22. The airsoft gun is nice for actual airsoft but pest control wouldn't work.

Hello, The fps would have to be pretty fast and you would have to hit the sweet spot to make them spin all the way around. I had used a benjamin rifle pumped up about five times and I would have to get within 20 ft for it to work and then I would have to hit the sweet spot. I also used my cross man air pump target pistol and I think the pellet just doesn't have the weight behind it to push the targets around. But you never know maybe your air gun will tear this target a new one. I think it is mainly for .22 cal pistols and up. Happy Shooting!!

I use Crosman 12g , 15 to the box sold at Wallyworld..I have two of these and my grandsons have some. We love this BB gun. Mine shoots 15 times as fast as I can pull the trigger.. It got a Pit Bull off my foot one time..

All air soft BBS are the same size, they just differ in weight. I prefer the .20 gram BBS(which is what I used in this air soft gun) because they fly straighter.

This is the CO2 version of the Walther PPQ and P99 pistol. It is actually the exact same frame as the 40cal & 9MM real gun but as a CO2 BB and pellet pistol. It is a very nice CO2 gun and fun to shoot. It is finicky no the type of CO2 cartridges it likes though. The Daisy brand works best.
