Airsoft Gas RevolversAirsoft weapons have wide appeal because they are lifelike replicas of existing guns. Hence, since a revolver traditionally shoots its bullets from a rotating barrel, Airsoft versions often do the same in order to maintain their realism. Not as popular as more automatic weapons among Airsoft players, they are nevertheless appreciated by collectors and enthusiasts.
How does an Airsoft gas revolver shoot BBs from a rotating barrel? The Marushin Taurus Raging Bull is a perfect example of this. The gun comes with six hollow shells, each of which is designed to hold one 8mm caliber BB. The shells are placed into the barrel-like bullets. Each shot makes the barrel rotate and propels the BB contained within the shell.
Typically, Airsoft gas revolvers do not have a blowback feature. This means that they are incapable of semi-auto and full-auto fire and need to be cocked manually prior to every shot. Nevertheless, being gas-powered guns, they offer excellent power, velocity and accuracy. In fact, with its eight-inch barrel and metal construction, the fully licensed Tanaka S&W M500 is an excellent combination of power and accuracy.
