Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Capsules

The CO₂ cartridge is a small, single-use metal cylinder filled with compressed carbon dioxide (CO₂).

It is placed in the gun as a power source for propelling the pellets (or for greater realism with Blowback).

Dual Energy

It means that the trigger performs two separate actions with one pull: it cocks (pulls back) the hammer and releases the hammer to fire the gun.

- Trigger feel: Usually heavier and with a longer travel compared to Single Action.

- Accuracy: May be less accurate when shooting at a target because the long/heavy trigger pull can move the gun if you don’t have good technique.

- Speed: Allows for rapid shots without manual cocking, useful in self-defense or situations where you want a quick first shot.

- Safety: The heavy/long trigger pull reduces the risk of accidental discharge (less likely to fire by mistake due to a light touch).

Metal Projectiles (Pellets)

Pellets are specially shaped projectiles (usually made of lead or alloy) designed for rifled barrels. Their distinctive shape ("diabolo" with a narrow waist and widened rear) helps seal the barrel and stabilize flight (gyroscopic effect), providing better accuracy than spherical BBs in rifled barrels.

BBs

BBs are spherical projectiles, usually small balls used in airsoft pistols/rifles (6 mm) and in certain BB-gun type airguns (.177 / 4.5 mm).
