Galaxy .25 Full Metal Spring Airsoft Pistol
Hallo, I am considering getting the Galaxy .25 Full Metal Spring Airsoft Pistol from Shorty USA. I have a few questions, though. I was wondering if anyone actually has this gun. And if you do, what do you think, and do you know any mods to make it fire faster than the 170 F.P.S. that it does? My last question is; Does anyone know any other place to get it besides Shorty USA or eBay?
Thanks.
Thanks.

why do you want THIS particular gun? there are many better uses for you money than bying something this worthless.
Maybe I want THIS particular gun. Do you argue with a zombie when it wants YOUR particular brain? What about THAT GUY'S particular brain?

I have thisgun, and it is great, and small. Super cool.
Davidelvis; Cool, but I don 't really want to spend $100 total on a whole bunch of stuff, but I'll still check out the website. (The "reply" to your comment was hiding behind the featured list)

Do you just pull the trigger on this gun and it fires, or does it have a functional slide?
It is a spring pistol, so you have to pull the slide. I am not even sure there is an airsoft pistol without a working slide, 'cept maybe a cheap NBB.

there are plenty. they use CO2 cartridges, though. and 170 f.p.s. is horrible.

Kk then, I have got a JG BAR 10 airsoft sniper rifle in 2 tone because I live in England, it is 410 fps, freaking class. I am planning on getting a clear beretta 92f because that looks to be a good gun.
Apart from spring replacement not really, but replacing the spring most likely means replacing the parts retaining the spring under force and maybe the whole trigger mechanism to cope with the extra stored energy, also it would become very hard to cock, think of a G-10, their design uses a double cocking action to get more power by doing the compression in two parts.
I thought about spring replacement, but it is a really small gun, so it would be quite hard to do.
Yeah, it would be a nuisance... you could swap the barrel and load smaller bullets but that seems pointless...
Yeah, the whole point of this gun is to be small, so that you can put it in your shoe and escape if caught, or at least go down fighting. I saw a gas one on kapowwe awhile back, might get that one.
Oh right, didn't know how small it is, used to have a gas powered colt .25 mini, that bad boy only fired seven shots but was obscenenly powerful, the spring ones were good as well, with suprising range...
Yeah, the site said 130+ foot range, or something like that.
not accurate as such but the shot gets there, if you know the gun you can shoot that far easily...
Hmm, not entirely sure I understand what you are saying. From what I read, the spring gun has a seven-shot clip and can shoot 130+ feet accurately, albeit with a firing angle of 20o or so.
Eh thought you meant the springer whi that range... tha gas one is great, really powerful but the shortness of the barrel detracts from it.
Yeah, gas airsoft guns need longer barrels to allow for a bigger buildup of gases.

i got the galaxy 25 and i put some paint remover on it and polished it to a shiny nickel plated finishand a made wood grips for it. all my friends say that it looks so real and that i better be carefull cuz now days you can get killed for having a replica. and to top it off i bought it brand new at a flea market for $7.00 i think its a very cool little pistol.
probably a bit overkill on a 7$ pistol but sounds pretty nice...

i have this gun and it is very good. It is VERY small and after about a year, you have to open it up and clean off the dust on the trigger thing, but it is very easy to open and put back together. AWESOME GUN. you can also buy it at AirSplat.com for under $15.00

well i have never had this one but my brother had a bigger pistol 200 fps ,and the clip broke (from abuse but still) then the slide on the top broke. this one looks good... how much money is it?
Around $13 dollars after shipping, I did post a link to the origional site....
it is! And I found a semi-auto NBB gas version as well! Is airsofting legal where you live? I think it is legal in Scotland.....

It is legal here, there are airsoft centres where you can play in the woods and complexs with other airsofters.
Sweet! I am gonna move to Birmingham, hopefully. Is it too expensive to live there (relative to Europe)?

No. I hate America for being so unimaginative. I am talking about Birmingham, England. That is where loosewire lives, which is why I didn't need to say "Birmingham, Enlgand".

Everybody in the know, knows that Enlgand is in the South Eastern hebrides of Bettlebrox 9 (IGN.460037) - opposite the XzlvY nebula marital counselling office.
Yes. But don't try to sell a car called the "Nova" to Spanish speaking people. "No" meaning "no" or "not", and "va" being a conjugated form of the verb "to go".

you know that uou can get a $20 pistol that has 275 f.p.s. at joes sporting goods store.
I know. But those suck. They are cybergun brand, and cybergun sucks.

says:
no, they are glock replicas, but there older models, they work better than the new ones, but they are cheap because of there little 7 round magazines
You should try out a gas gun, and not some plastic NBB, but an actual all metal GBB, those are quality. Wish I had enough money to buy one...

Yippee, your name could be Myhkailo Yourinski.
Yourinski sounds a bit on the Jewish side, and Germans aren't noted for liking the Jews... Specially during the 40's...

Yes that is what I thought after I typed it, you could be a polish-german (hmm...maybe that isn't the best either)...not russian....not czechoslovakian......Reinhard(that would probably get you arrested)... how about von Klinkerhoffen?

Well there are certainly cheaper places to live but compared to London or Paris it is very inexpensive as long as you live in the suburbs.

ohh goodness. i luv this gun. its really tiny and i made mine into a belt buckle. No one suspects that :)
That looks so like a plastic Colt .25 (which I have) http://www.whipperleys.co.uk/acatalog/colt_bb_guns.html
Though it seems to be on steroids... =)

Wow, it does (think it may be modeled after the same thing, since it has .25 in its name). But how big is yours? This one is 5 1/2 inches, I think. And this one is metal, not plastic.
I like plastic ones too, but not if it is really cheap plastic (IE most CYMA's).
