Learn More About Automatic BB Guns

While those who plan to use BB guns for target shooting will likely take their time and line up each shot, those engaged in Airsoft games may prefer the ability to fire many shots quickly with an automatic gun. Some BB guns can be configured to fire in either semi-automatic or fully automatic modes. This can be useful for players who will switch between unloading many rounds in a second and carefully firing one shot at a time. The automatic shooting mode can also be used by players who are not able to shoot as accurately. The tradeoff, however, is that they will find themselves consuming more ammunition each game.

Styles of Automatic BB Guns

Airsoft BB guns can be styled as rifles or handguns and may be powered by gas cartridges or batteries. In addition to semi-automatic and automatic shooting modes, many of these guns feature a burst-shooting mode that fires a set number of BBs each time the trigger is pulled. Those who are using BB guns for target shooting can also find handguns that feature both automatic and semi-automatic shooting modes. Models like the IZH Drozd MP-661K Blackbird use both gas cartridges and batteries to propel BBs in excess of 500 feet per second.
