The Two Types of Electric Airsoft Guns: AEG and LPEG

There are two main types of electric airsoft guns: AEG and LPEG. AEG, or Automatic Electric Gun, are the preferred type of electric airsoft gun. LPEG, on the other hand, stand for Low Powered Electric Gun and they weren't kiddin' when they named it!! LPEG's frequently have plastic internals - plastic gears, plastic bushings, plastic inforcings and the piston head is even plastic! Also be on the lookout for AEP - Automatic Electric Pistols. These are similar to LPEG guns quality-wise.

Quality AEG guns (ie. Systema) have polycarbonate pistsons and metal heads! Plus they have been carefully oiled by a specialist!!
