FYI....I am selling my Leshiy 2 replacing with two other PCPs

[Blackpaw]

With my currently situation and wanting 3 guns I can’t justify owning ONE gun with the complete kit is worth almost $2900/$3000 depending on how you do the numbers. Also, the fore mentioned value doesn’t really include the scope or Eagle vision scope rings.

The calibers I want always available are .177, 22 and 25, thus 3 guns. Currently, my Taipan Vet covers the needs of a 25, so the 22 cal and 177 are needed.

The replacement guns I am looking at are first the AirMaks Caiman X in .22 green stock. Next week I will go to Utah Airguns to check out the Caimen X, if I don’t like it I will go for the Cricket II. @intenseaty22 gives it stellar ratings so it is a gun I am willing to buy blind, and I trust @intenseaty22’s opinion. Though the Argus looks tempting too. Next will be .177 in Hw100 or Daystate Huntsman Revere or something.

I want the hunting / testing / field target flexibility of the 3 calibers.

Unlike some dopes and etc comments I won’t price gouge, I will ask an honest and fair price for the Leshiy 2 and complete kit and I mean COMPLETE. If anything I will lose some money considering I bought the gun in Euros and will sell at USA asking prices & below. Over the weekend I will post the gun for sale in the classified along with all the details and photos.

@Blackpaw - it's too bad we'll be losing you from the Leshiy 2 fold, but your logic is sound for what you desire. Sometimes we have to make these decisions and practicality has to win out. 

Having purchased a Cricket 2 just last week from the AGN classifieds and shooting it now for a few days I will tell you it's an impressive little (and I mean freakin little - 26.x" long) airgun. At 30fpe and below I don't feel any need for extra moderation or lengthening of the gun. Over 30 fpe it starts to get a little bit louder, but still not really that bad - I've had it up to about 40 fpe with 25grain MkII pellets and it's a freaking beast. It's also pretty sick slinging the NSA 20.2gr slugs @ 900 fps. Great trigger. There's only one downside I've found and that is the hammer slap and resultant twang a touch louder in the ear than I'd like - but if you move you head a foot away you realize only you are hearing it being inches away.

My opinion of the Argus, after watching Steve's video, is not that high. Seems he had to slow everything down to the low 800s to get things to group.

@ctahoot thanks for the input. I know the cricket ii is a great gun. I did call Charlie of GAG to discuss the Cricket II and Argus for my needs. 
I’m not worried about selling the Leshiy 2 for a reasonable price and considering the sale price will include a 300 cc bottle, pressure tester and a full set of jets extra magazines and other duplicate parts. And I’m sure once day I’ll come back to it because it is a great gun but not for what I need now.

Never sell guns

 

[Blackpaw]

@JohnnyPDX for the most part I don’t sell guns. Just now circumstances dictate if I want this I have to this, to get B I need to do A.

Gota have em all, lol. I've been tempted to get a leshiy 2, but cant justify the price tag. I've also passed on a couple of stellar guns for 2-$300, so it's also an issue of.... I feel like I'm up to my ears in guns already. 1 .25, 6 .22s, 3 .177s And more barrels, scopes, and air tank/tubes than I have guns for, lol. I need to thin the herd if anything

 

[cmatera]

I agree, gotta have 'em all. I have 4 Artemis P15's: .177, .22, and 2 .25's. They are almost as light as the Leshiy Classic, but are multi shot. I have a number of other much more expensive PCP's, but the lowly P15's do all I need them to.

 

[Blackpaw]

Classified posted....Just to repeat not interested in Trades, and I am speaking with Charlie about a Cricket II and Justine about a AirMaks.

 

[L.Leon]

@blackpaw, it's going to be gone in 3, 2, 1... ✌

 

[Blackpaw]

Already would be gone if I was willing to do a trade. Nope.

 

[qball]

Good luck with the sale, it's a great deal! 

 

[idaho_varminter]

@Blackpaw,

Are you back from The Netherlands for good? Back in Idaho? I’d love to meet up and whack some plague infested ground squirrels together!

 

[Blackpaw]

A hunt with you would be fun. However, for now I am still mostly in the Netherlands, but I am working on transitioning back to the USA if all goes well. There was a bump today, but I am moving forward.

I agree. I sold my first PCP to a friend. I regret it, but I know he is enjoying it so im ok with it.

It's been over ten years since I sold a special PB and I'm still looking in the rear view mirror and hating myself.

Hello...I am a new member, but a 30 year air-gunner. May I ask whether you were able to sell your Leshiy2? If so, may I ask what it went for? I have a brand new one, .25/350mm to sell, but I can't use the classifieds forum until I have some member time under my belt. Thanks in advance.

 

[Blackpaw]

Go face value on the gun. I think someone is a jerk if the gouge. I sold a huge kit of stuff for $2700.00. The new owner is very happy.

 

[jergto]

Still a decent price when you factor in taxes, wait time, shipping. They probably saved some money from buying new and all the additional accessories.
