EDgun Edgun Leshiy 2

[ctshooter]

Thanks towle. If you fold the stock you can eyeball it. Everything 'looked' fine. But I was even getting weird groups with a .25 Shogun using a .22 barrel and the 14mm slide on adapter. 

 

[mtnGhost]

Correct me if I am wrong but they do not seem like the groups shot from a 2000$+ gun. They are more like 200$ springer groups.

I want to add something to this. I've been shooting with a DonnyFL 14mm adapter and a Koi (.22) and Shogun (.25 - so less chance of clipping). Also a Hugget Astille .22. I tried all of these options out at 45 yards today and groups were still pretty big. So I decided to put the stock 350mm silencer back on and my groups tightened up out at 45 yards. Much closer to what we might expect from an airgun of this caliber. 

I can't say if this was the 14mm adapter which isn't a super snug fit to the barrel. Or, it could be the moderators are choking on the amount of air from the Leshiy 2.

I have a 14x1.25 adapter for the Koi and Shogun. I'm going to try some groups at 45 yards again to see if a direct attachment helps at all.

Bingo.

Bingo seems to be correct. I just fired off this round of 8 shots from 46 yards. .22/350mm barrel with a Koi attached directly to barrel via 14x1.25 adapter. JSB 15.9gr sorted by weight, not cleaned.

The first two high shoots at the top of the target were sighters to figure out elevation. The central group is 6 shots. Concentric rings are 1/2" apart. I'm much more pleased with this group considering I'm only using 8X for the distance. No stray or oddly dropping shots. 

Now that's more like it

awesome!

okay just curious .... and MAYBE I missed it, but for the STANDARD out of the box length of the Leshiy 2 with 350 mm barrel the estimated 29ish inches. Folded it should be 16 to 17 inches. Is this right?

I won’t single dealer out, but they should have done a little better with putting the specs on their website. Sorry I am a data geek.

 

[Joeboo4236]

I think it's 18 folded-28 unfolded. I think lol

 

[Blackpaw]

Thanks! That is what I was estimating.

Oooh, I'm interested in this too! (Leshiy 2 overall size - 250mm and 350mm size when folded).

If you've got a Leshiy 2 (all kitted out with a scope, bipod, etc), I'd like to know what a good pack size would be. I'd like to backpack with my Leshiy (when I get it...), but don't want to carry an oversize rucksack unnecessarily. Please chime-in!

Here is a suggestion...I am a huge fan of Patagonia equipment. You can’t be the quality AND customer service of the company. Plus there is a 25 year guarantee on their products good any where in the world. I bought a jacket in Prague and Patagonia repaired it 3 years later for free when I was home in USA for a month with 2 day service.

The Blackhole backpacks / luggage / duffel bags of Patagonia are rock solid. They aren’t waterproof, but with that coating, they are VERY water resistant and if you really are concerned you can buy a cheaper storable cover for it to keep water out.

Length is around 22 inches and capacity is around 30 L. You could easily put the Leshiy 2 in it and a buddy bottle, with lunch and some gear and should be good for a day.

Blackpaw - thanks man, good option - That Patagonia - is it padded on the bottom?

 

[Blackpaw]

No but the bottom is coated. Here is a link to Patagonia’s site on the Blackhole series. I think I have the previous model, but similar specs. Also, with the coating dirt / mud come off easily, and it is fairly comfortable.

you should actually be able to extrapolate the numbers from this drawing poster by Ed - ad 100mm for the 350mm verison, and you can measure to where it folds

 

[Blackpaw]

Thanks I did just that...estimates anyway...an educated guess and how I came up with my numbers. And thus I don’t see any issue the Edgun fitting inside that backpack.

 

[yenniedn]

No need to extrapolate - my 0.25 w/ factory 350mm shroud is just under 18" from the back of the installed magazine to the end of the shroud when folded (if you use an aftermarket grip that extends back beyond zero degree factory grip, your overall length might be a little longer since your grip will stick out a little further). When unfolded, it's 29.5".

 

[Kovas]

Anyone else carrying the Leshiy 2 in a dedicated backpack? If so, what pack are you using? Thanks.

 

[mtnGhost]

Thanks! That is what I was estimating.

The 350mm/22 that I received is 17 15/16" folded (with magazine) and 29 5/8" fully extended.

 

[Blackpaw]

@mtnGhost so 18 inches folded  

 

[Blackpaw]

Leshiy 2 fully paid for in .177 cal and 350 mm barrel and Francisco at Edgun.shop said it should be (from last week) 3 to 4 weeks. Hopefully, according to Francisco is right!!!!

 

[Coolhand]

Little bit off this topic, but I just put the 350 bottle on my L2 .30 and went from two magazines plus 4 to a full five magazines. That’s a lot of awesome. On a different topic, my home pour bullets work flawless in my rifle. 

 

[Blackpaw]

Do you mean cast bullets? Also, I have a 200 euro credit with Edgun.shop because I just went for full purchase and now my initial deposit is a “gift card.” Would you say the bottle is worth it? I can get either the 300 or 350 cc with the credit.

 

[Coolhand]

Will not lock in folded position but worth the trade off for shot count imho. Yes they are cast from NOE bullet mold. They drop at 61 grains with the largest Hollowpoint out of pure lead. Great mushroom, even at lower speeds.
