EDgun Edgun Leshiy 2 .30 cal reliability

I’ve got a .25 that has been rock solid since purchase. I’ve done a few changes to the internal regulator as well as changed the jet sizes to get better efficiency. I’m not really concerned with slight regulator creep that may or may not happen. Mine has no gauge so it’s never been a concern. I would suggest if going to a .30 cal to get the biggest bottle available unless you plan on only taking a few shots while hunting.

I’m planning on buying a Edgun Leshiy 2 .30 caliber and I am wondering if anyone in this forum had any issues of reliability and what the common problems have they run into.

Thx
@guanshee Take some time and read through this thread. It’s chocked with 5 years worth of info on the Leshiy 2


there are many other threads across forums on this air rifle. Try using the AGN “search“ feature If you haven’t already.
 
That is great news. I do plan to get the larger bottle for the 30 caliber. BTW, have you upgraded to the HUMA regulator?
Nope , stock regulator. Thousands of pellets down range. Hundreds of small game taken. Sure the trigger isn’t a two stage match type. Doesn’t apply to what I use this rifle for. All stock parts no mods whatsoever just minor tuning.

I have a Leshiy 2 .30 and it’s my favorite gun. I had my doubts at first, but I’ve come to believe the L2 can be very reliable. But it’s a complicated system with a lot of small parts and (inherently) there’s a lot that can go wrong. Fortunately, there are a lot of helpful resources to help you diagnose and resolve problems. Nevertheless, it’s not a gun I would recommend to someone who is afraid to get into it and tinker with it. If you have some mechanical aptitude and you’re brave enough to become your own armorer (i.e., parts swapper), you will have a solid platform with the L2. Plus, owing to its modularity, by design, it’s geared toward those who like modify and change things. If all this sounds like one big self-contradiction…maybe, for starters, a semi-auto isn’t what you are after. In any case, regular maintenance is actually very easy on this platform. But, to answer your question specifically, I have had a problem with indexing that I resolved with a turn and half (small, incremental adjustments) on a set screw. I’ve had to replace o-rings occasionally, which is really easy on the L2. And, I had regulator creep issues before switching to the Huma Raptor. Switching the regulator was also really easy (less than 20 minutes). That’s it. It has been very reliable for me.

Thanks for your insight.
