Spring/Gas/Electric Pistols

[Deebo2K4]

Hello everyone. Im new to airsoft and im thinkin of buying an airsoft pistol. Ive been looking around and noticed that there are 3 types of airsoft pistols. Spring, gas, and electric.
Correct me if im wrong but
Spring is the one where you have to cock back after each shot (i dont want this)
Gas is the one where its powered by gas AND
Electric is the one powered by batteries
I dont know whether i should get gas or electric. Can someone help me and please explain the advantages/disadvantages between gas and electric?
-Thanks in advance

I don't really think there is a question on which you will want. Gas is the way to go for a pistol, as the electric pistols are not worth any $$$... they break, have weak firepower, and the batteries won't last long. On the other hand, gas guns are very reliable if they are properly maintained. If you have some more questions concerning weapons and such, your welcome to PM me or e-mail me at [e-mail]

Gas all the way. EBBs are junk and arnt worth the time and money.

If you're not looking to fork over a lot of dough, ive heard that spring is 100% better than electric. But everyone is right, there is just something fun about holding a pistol in your hand that racks rounds just like the real steel.
