So, who's going to buy themselves a Leishy?

[ZAKDINGEL]

A small gun but big in performance. It looks a proper 'poachers gun' and I'm smitten but at over a grand????????

Yes I will second that should be around £300 then I will have one

Yes I will second that should be around £300 then I will have one

For that money, I'd have 2 ... in belt holsters

Too many clique rifles on the market at grossly inflated prices. Are they really worth the extra? Not for me.

[chris u'5]

Is there a reason they are so expensive??? They look cool but not 1k cool.

[clunge]

They are much admired and very expensive. But if there were a way of making them much cheaper, with a bigger margin, then presumably manufacturers would spring up and do so.

I'm not sure what a clique rifle is. Perhaps you meant niche rifles. Leshiy is not designed as a high-volume mass production jobbie. So the design and production overheads will be high.

There seems to be a niche for a compact, foldable, very light rifle that you can easily stash away whilst out and about, or leave in the boot of your car.

Leshiy appears to fill that niche admirably.

[clueless]

I bought one and it's a great little thing, truly tiny and built like a tank.

Accuracy is just as good as my Daysate Saxon and my HW100 were, the trigger as standard is a bit crap, but can easily be modded to give you a second stage feel which vastly improves things. I have also changed the reg to a Huma modified one which give you a better shot count (almost 60 shots before it drops off the reg) and also changed the pistol grip for a longer version which suits my hand better.

Worth every penny in my opinion as its so different to everything else on the market

Watched the intro video with interest ... yes, quite unique. The only thing I have reservations about is the cocking mechanism; having to 'break' the action is strange but then again break barrel springers work well and even the BSA Spitfire pcp was a break barrel. It's just the ergonomics of the required action that concerns me, especially when fitted with a scope etc, but I say this before seeing one. I might well change my mind if and when I get to see and try one in practice.

Interesting ...
Cheers, Phil

Hmm, crap standard trigger & needing an aftermarket reg isn't what I want to hear about a gun that expensive! saying that i'd have one if I won it in a comp or won the pools.

Clique:- a small group of people who spend their time together and do not welcome other people into that group: This more lor less describes all of the bullpup guns on the market. Everyone thinks their choice is best.

[Inspector 71]

So it's £1100 and the trigger is crap? It should be match perfect with more adjustment than a WRC car's suspension. Just a complete rip-off that will still appeal to "those types" at the club.
