AIRSOFT REVOLVER

Airsoft revolvers are available in gas, CO2 and spring platforms.  The most popular are gas and CO2 since there is no space inside a revolver to hide a gearbox, spring or piston of any kind.  Spring powered revolvers do exist but they are more akin to toys since they are rely on the impact of the hammer’s striker against the BB to shoot it out.  You can imagine that the power of such a spring powered platform in a revolver is quite low, and it does not create sufficient power for any kind of serious range or accuracy.

The range of airsoft revolvers is quite large, ranging from some die cast metal models in the sub $!00 range to mid-range airsoft revolvers in the mid hundred dollar range.  You can’t really go wrong with any of these offerings, since the design of airsoft revolvers is much more simple and trouble free than a semi automatic airsoft pistol.

If you have more than $200 to spend, then you start getting into beautiful replicas by Tanaka Works with more refined details, although Japanese revolvers are made by plastic as required by law. Having said that, Japanese airsoft revolvers from Tanaka Works and Marushin have amazing surface finishing, making them look extremely realistic. This price range will also get you some unique, rare and limited edition models that are not always available.

For truly unique and one-of-a-kind collector grade airsoft revolvers, that will set you back over $1000 with custom crafted pieces from Airsoft Surgeon.  Some of these masterpieces sport CNC steel and aluminum components to offer another level of realism and refinement.
