Airsoft Shells

Airsoft shells are essential components for airsoft guns and airsoft Launchers. These shells are specially designed to hold multiple BB pellets or be dummy shells that mimic the look of the real shells. They come in various capacities, typically ranging from 10 to 30 rounds, allowing for multiple shots before reloading whether it be a gas airsoft shotgun or a shell-ejecting airsoft shotgun. The most popular best-selling airsoft shells are A.P.S. Smart CAM 870 Shotgun CO2 Cartridges, Tokyo Marui Shot Shell for Marui M3 Super 90 / M3 Shorty / SPAS 12 / M870, PPS Gas Shotgun Shell For M870 Pump Action Shotgun, CYMA M870 Shotgun Shells, ARMY FORCE 84rd 40mm Cartridge Shell, WinGun Nagant M1895 6mm Shell, ACETECH ACEHIVE X Spawner Starter Pack and VFC M3 MAAWS BB Bullet Module.

    Can You Reuse Airsoft Shotgun Shells?

    Most airsoft shotgun shells are indeed reusable. These shells can be reloaded with BB pellets just like an airsoft AEG magazine, making them convenient and cost-effective. However, it's important to note that some shell ejecting shotgun shells, particularly those designed to simulate realistic shells, may shoot out parts that cannot be reused. These shells are meant to provide an authentic shooting experience but may require special care and maintenance due to the components involved.

    How Do Airsoft Shotgun Shells Work?

    Airsoft shotgun shells are specially designed to mimic the functionality of real shotgun shells. They typically consist of a shell casing, a gas reservoir or spring mechanism, and a loading chamber for BB pellets. In gas-powered shotgun shells, a small amount of gas, such as green gas or CO2, is loaded into the reservoir. When the trigger is pulled, the gas is released, creating pressure that propels the BB pellets out of the shell. Gas-powered shotgun shells often require a gas reservoir adapter or a specific gas-powered shotgun to function properly. Spring-powered shotgun shells, on the other hand, rely on a spring mechanism. When the shotgun is cocked, the spring is compressed. When the trigger is pulled, the spring is released, pushing air forward and propelling the BB pellets out of the shell.

    Are Airsoft Revolver Shells Reusable?

    Yes, airsoft revolver shells are typically reusable, revolver shells are designed to be ejected and reloaded with BBs. After firing a round, you can extract the spent shell from the revolver's cylinder, refill it with BBs, and reinsert it back into the cylinder for further use. This makes airsoft revolver shells a cost-effective option, as you can reuse them multiple times during gameplay.
