Is there a such thing as a good spring pistol?
-
Define good, and i'm sure you can get a better answer. A majority of the springers on the market are fairly "good". It's really a matter of what you're looking for it to do. Are you looking for a backup gun, primary gun for a spring gun war, or looking to plink around in your backyard? I'ts kind of like asking what aeg or gas gun is the best without specifying what you're looking for it to do.
Give more info, and I bet more people would be able to give you a better look at this.

For the spring pistol, I'm looking for something strong and intimidating. And hopefully accurate too. Thank you

spring pistol, strong and intimidating. And hopefully accurate too.
Oxymoron.
Not going to happen.
A spring pistol is not the anwser
-
Agreed. Strong, intimidating, and pistol make a complex oxymoron (that's how I see it). Get a GBB instead of a spring, that's really what you're looking for. I'm not trying to steer you there... well sort of ...rather that's what will fit your needs. Plus, a pistol that's "intimidating" is not going to happen... unless you get a Desert Eagle that's super loud, and is full auto at 30 rps, and accurate up to 200 meters. THAT would be scary. I'd totally be up against any other pistol single handedly with any of my guns; spring, gas, or aeg.
-
On the contrary, a good spring pistol (like a TM or KSC) will usually outperform a GBB as far as accuracy and reliability goes. They are more accurate because a spring is more consistent and they are more reliable because there's less moving parts. I've got an old TM Sig P226 springer around here somewhere as well as a couple of KSC's.
-
I do not know. I can see the reliability, but my KWA M9, and G23s, deliver strong rapid and accurate fire power down range every time I need it, with a much higher ROF than a spring gun.
My biggest problem with spring guns is that you must break line of sight with your target in order to cock the gun again. my GBB's don't have this problem.
I would say that a spring pistol could hold par with a poorly made gas gun. But a quality one such as a KWA or KJW? I dont think it would stand up. However, a spring gun would be cheaper than a gas gun on Average.
But I would recommend the KJW Mark. 1 ruger to anyone who needs a sidearm, its not what I use anymore, but it was my first gas gun. They are reliable, strong, cheap, and highly accurate for there size.

THANK you ALL for your replies. I understand spring pistols suck, but I am the communitys airsoft arms dealer (I move several hundred dollars every two weeks) and there's some people who want a springer
cause they can't afford anything else. Either way thank you.
-
Yes there is, I have a KWC M9 spring pistol I bought from Sports Authority, which has served me flawlessly for almost 3 years. Highly recommend it!!

between 30 and 65 bucks

I honestly do not think there is a good spring pistol. The local airsoft shop here in PV carries a line of metal spring pistols and they are usable in only the lowest of scenarios, but it is better than a plastic pistol.
-
I have the KWC ultra grade spring Desert Eagle, and there is nothing bad about it. the accuracy is okay..but the quality of it is just amazing. like when i first picked it up i said to my self, " how is this not a gas gun?"

"Weapon Photos"
Look at this forum ^ that will give you a good idea of what to look for.

got mor thatn enough of those

There are good spring pistols. Look for "ultra grade" spring pistols online.
I had a S&W Sigma which chronoed in the high 200s with .20g BBs and it had the same range as my Marui AEGs. I used it as a sidearm for a couple of years until I switched over to my Marui p226 GBB. I had quite a few epic kills with my Sigma. A friend broke my sigma in a fit of rage during a game (he re-payed me for it) so that's why I have 4 spare sigma mags for sale. Everywhere I look for a replacement sigma, they are sold out.
I also have a Desert Eagle Ultra grade and I mounted a laser onto it. Very fun for my friend's backyard games, as he has a one acre lot.
Here are some ultra grade airsoft guns
