Galaxy G38 Full Scale 1911 Full Metal Airsoft Pistol in Gold

Galaxy G38 Full Scale 1911 Full Metal Airsoft Pistol – Gold

If you’re after a full-metal 1911-style airsoft pistol that looks sharp and shoots straight, the Galaxy G38 in gold is definitely worth a look. This spring-powered airsoft handgun blends classic styling with a sturdy zinc alloy shell, making it a solid choice for back garden target practice or as a display piece for collectors. It’s got that old-school vibe with just enough tactical flair to give it some edge — and yeah, it feels as good in the hand as it looks on the shelf.

The Galaxy G38 is a full-scale replica of the iconic 1911 platform, giving you the size, shape, and feel of a real steel sidearm. Constructed almost entirely from metal, it carries a realistic weight (around 500g), with just a few parts like the trigger and grip panels made from tough polymer. The slide is all metal, the outer barrel too, and that gives you satisfying feedback when you cock it back. This is a spring-powered airsoft pistol, so each shot requires a manual slide rack — simple, reliable, and great for getting into the rhythm of precise shooting.

Performance-wise, you’re looking at a consistent 230 FPS using standard 0.12g BBs. It’s definitely on the lower-power side compared to gas pistols, but perfect for casual shooting, indoor ranges, or backyard plinking. Accuracy is solid too — this pistol surprised us during testing with tight groupings, especially when stepped up to 0.20g BBs for better flight stability. It’s got fixed front and rear iron sights that are actually usable, making it a decent trainer for sight alignment and target acquisition.

Functionality is where this little 1911 replica shines. The mag holds 13 rounds, releases cleanly with a side button on the grip, and reloads easily. There’s a small 20mm rail under the barrel for mounting a torch or a decorative laser sight — nothing too fancy, but a nice touch if you want to kit it out. The safety switch adds to the realism and lets you train those habits even on a spring pistol.

What really stands out is the build quality for the price. That gold finish isn't just flashy — it gives the G38 a kind of collector’s appeal. The metal components give it a satisfying heft and a mechanical feel that’s way more engaging than a plastic plinker. Even though the mag is plastic, it’s well-moulded and functions smoothly. The fixed hop-up system is basic, but effective enough for its range.

This airsoft pistol is perfect for newer players who want something simple and sturdy to practise with, or for collectors who want a 1911 with some personality. It doesn’t require gas or batteries, and the spring mechanism makes it incredibly low maintenance. No O-rings to seal, no valves to leak, just rack it and shoot. It's also a handy last-resort piece for skirmish players when their main gun is down — not ideal, but it’ll get the job done in a pinch.

If you like the look and feel of classic sidearms but want something budget-friendly and easy to use, the Galaxy G38 ticks all the right boxes. Gold, full metal, 1911 style — it’s got that head-turning factor and a sturdy build to back it up.
