Galaxy G15 Full Metal Spring Pistol in Blue

The Galaxy G15  is a robust, full-metal spring pistol that brings a solid blend of realism, durability, and affordability to the table. While it’s not quite skirmish-grade, this is a cracking choice for backyard target practice or as a collector’s piece with a bit more heft than your average springer. Designed as a loose replica of the Glock 23, it’s one of the sturdier spring-powered airsoft pistols available in this price range, and it doesn’t pretend to be anything it’s not—which is part of its charm.

The real steel Glock 23 is famous for its compact size, .40 calibre chambering, and popularity with law enforcement due to its balance of firepower and concealability. While the G15 doesn’t fire .40 S&W rounds, it does a decent job capturing the essence of the real thing with its 1:1 scale, fixed sights, and signature squared-off Glock silhouette. Unlike the polymer-lower design of the actual Glock, the G15 is made entirely from metal (except the internals and hop-up), giving it extra durability over flimsier springers.

It’s surprisingly weighty too—coming in at 639g—which gives it a satisfying in-hand feel. At 220mm in length, it handles well for most hand sizes, and the metal magazine holds 18 rounds of 6mm BBs. There’s even a standard Glock-style under-barrel rail that lets you mount accessories like lasers or small torches, which is a rare feature at this price point.

Performance-wise, you're looking at around 220 to 230 FPS out of the box using 0.12g BBs. While you’re not going to be outranging any AEGs, that’s more than enough for fun in the garden or a bit of tin-can plinking. It’s spring-powered, so you’ll need to manually cock it before each shot by racking the slide—simple, satisfying, and completely self-sufficient with no gas or batteries to worry about.

The fixed hop-up system, a basic rubber O-ring setup, gives a bit of lift to your shots, and during testing, the G15 performed best with 0.15g BBs. It’s also compatible with 0.2g BBs, though you might see a slight dip in FPS. Accuracy at short to mid-range is actually very decent for a springer, and the solid construction means it doesn’t rattle or feel fragile when firing.

What really makes the G15 shine is its durability. That full-metal zinc alloy body can take a bit of rough handling, which makes it ideal for younger players learning safe gun handling or anyone wanting a pistol that feels like it’s built to last (at least within the limits of what springers can offer). Whether you’re using it as a prop, a trainer, or just for shooting targets in the garden, it’s a solid little tool.

Let’s be clear: this isn’t trying to compete with Tokyo Marui or high-end gas blowbacks. It’s not a skirmish workhorse. But for under £30, it offers a surprising amount of fun and function. Whether you're looking for a reliable training tool, an introduction to airsoft pistols, or just a decent plinker, the Galaxy G15 delivers more than you’d expect at this price point—and looks pretty slick in two tone blue while doing it.
