yes

Answer 2

An AEG airsoft gun is an Automatic Electric Gun. It will have a selective firing capabilities meaning a safety, single fire where each pull of the trigger produces one shot, and full auto meaning it will continue to fire if you hold down the trigger until you run out of ammo.

There are more expensive airsoft guns which have a Burst setting meaning each pull of the trigger can produce 3 shots, but these are not as common.

A gas blow back is available in airsoft pistols. This means each shot will make the slide of your pistol move backwards making it more realistic to the real deal. Gas Blow Back (GBB) airsoft pistols require either CO2 or propane which come in cans that you have to buy separately.
