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.

why do you want THIS particular gun? there are many better uses for you money than bying something this worthless.

I have thisgun, and it is great, and small. Super cool.

Do you just pull the trigger on this gun and it fires, or does it have a functional slide?
Jul 14, 2008. 5:00 PMapples!!!!! says:
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.
May 2, 2008. 7:19 PMkillerjackalope says:
Yeah, it would be a nuisance... you could swap the barrel and load smaller bullets but that seems pointless...
May 3, 2008. 12:37 AMkillerjackalope says:
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...
May 3, 2008. 10:14 AMkillerjackalope says:
not accurate as such but the shot gets there, if you know the gun you can shoot that far easily...
May 4, 2008. 1:34 AMkillerjackalope says:
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.
May 4, 2008. 1:30 PMkillerjackalope says:
Yeah one of the mads I did to my old gas smg...

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 $7.00 i think its a very cool little pistol.
Jun 11, 2008. 3:36 AMkillerjackalope says:
probably a bit overkill on a 7$ pistol but sounds pretty nice...
May 1, 2008. 7:08 AMsilentassasin21 says:
there nothing to improve the fps on a spring action pistol this small if i were you i would avoid getting this gun
Feb 1, 2008. 9:47 AMfirebird11692 says:
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

I do own this lil kicker and I love it! I have ALOT of airsoft guns and this lil bad boy is one I'll always take with me to a match. Its a great gun to hide and use for a back up to your secondary weapon! great buy!

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?

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

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.

Though it seems to be on steroids... =)
