Not every airsoft gun wants the same BB. A small spring pistol has a weak spring and a short barrel, and a heavy BB leaves it slowly and drops early. 0.12 g BBs are light enough for these guns: they come out faster and fly further from the same spring. Some pistols have a fixed hop-up set for exactly this weight, such as our USP Compact spring pistol.
When to choose 0.12 g
- Low-power spring pistols and other guns that shoot well under 1 J.
- Guns with a fixed hop-up made for light BBs.
- Plinking at home at short distance, at cans or a target with a BB net.
When to choose something heavier
In electric guns, gas pistols and stronger spring guns, a 0.12 g BB is too light: it flies too fast for its weight, reacts to every breeze and can curve upwards. For those, 0.20 g BBs are the all-round choice. If your gun's manual names a BB weight, follow it.
You get 2000 yellow BBs in two bags of 1000, easy to spot on the floor or in the grass when you pick them up. Pour them into a bottle or load magazines with a speed loader, and keep them dry and clean: a dirty or dented BB can jam the gun.
Always wear eye protection when shooting, such as Bolle Cobra goggles.
