ASG Shotgun Shells 4 Pack 6mm Bb

Product Information

Airsoft shotguns have existed since the very beginning of airsoft and have had a wide range of systems and designs ranging from spring-powered, gas powered, including an airsoft double barrel shotgun and more recently some even using electric motors similar to standard AEGs. But what determines the ‘best’ airsoft shotgun? This certainly can divide opinion but for the sake of clarity we would only consider something a "true" airsoft shotgun if it fired more than one BB in a single shot. This will exclude some of the cheaper options which only fire one BB as they operate more like a pump-action sniper rifle than an actual shotgun. So with that said and done, here is our list of the 12 best airsoft shotguns available in 2023. Tactical and defense airsoft shotguns tend to be shorter barreled and often come with pistol grip attachments, making them far more maneuverable and easier to use in CQB and indoor games. The significant difference between airsoft shotguns and real guns is that real guns are made primarily from metal and use gunpowder to fire metallic projectiles at extremely high velocities. The impact of this round can be deadly. With a single pull of most airsoft guns’ triggers, several BBs are released from the barrel that expand outwards in a triangular manner.

Similarly, because they tend to use one hop up for three barrels, cheaper models can be prone to feeding issues, launching fewer or more BBs somewhat randomly. Tri/Hex ShotgunsTo further simulate the feel of a real shotgun, airsoft shotgun shells are loaded with multiple BBs instead of individual slugs. These shells are often made of plastic, and their design allows for effortless reloading during gameplay. When you pull the trigger of your airsoft shotgun, the compressed gas or spring mechanism fires multiple BBs at once, providing a satisfying spread similar to a real shotgun. They have hollow compartments that unscrew and are filled with a certain number of BBs, typically 30 or so, and are then inserted into the shotgun as they would be in real steel versions.

Secondly, to replicate the scattering effect of a real steel shotgun, most airsoft rifles use multiple inner barrels. There can be a few ways that an airsoft shotgun loads BBs, and each method has its own relative pros and cons. Shell loading Airsoft Shotguns If you are fed up with being hassled by snipers beyond your effective range, a compact, high-power shotgun should surprise them! The ST870 Sawn Off from S&T is a near-perfect, 1:1 replica of the real steel M870, one of the most common and iconic pump action shotgun designs of all time. With full metal construction, hefty weight and real wood furniture, if you put this down next to the real thing you would struggle to tell them apart! They have a single inner barrel and hop up, and when loaded, a single pull of the trigger launches a single BB at some speed towards the target. And if you’re interested in HPA tapping a shotgun, you’ll probably want a magazine anyway (which is generally why they sell M4 adapters for certain, better made airsoft shotguns).
