Gas Ram

The Gas-Ram (or gas piston, gas strut) is an internal propulsion mechanism that replaces the traditional metal spring in spring-piston airguns. It is placed inside the cylinder and consists of a sealed piston with compressed gas (usually nitrogen or inert gas). When you cock the pistol, the piston is compressed; when you fire, the gas expands and pushes the piston to propel the pellet.

Its advantages are:

• Longer lifespan compared to some conventional springs
• Lower noise and smoother operation
• Reduced recoil
• Immediately ready at low temperatures
• More linear behavior during cocking/firing, easier cocking in some guns.
• Less maintenance required compared to broken/damaged springs.

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).

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).
