One of the 2 Eastern pups makers I have yet to own a piece from. And the guns that start it all, more or less...no? Should be fun! Thanks AGN!

I'm new here but I'm really looking forward to this, Edguns are the dogs b@ll@cks.
I have a Leshiy and an R5M in 22. They are the most self sufficient rigs I've owned. Since buying them I don't shoot much else. They are reliable, consistently accurate, meticulously designed and engineered, built to last and shouldn't need to be returned to a dealer for maintenance or repair. Spare parts direct from Russia to England are an email and a seven day wait, A proper result!
Any airgun manufacturer who is confident enough to put their product under the wheels of a Landcruiser should be taken seriously. It's a shame other manufacturers don't post videos on how to look after their products?
It's my opinion that all air guns should be made and supported in this way.
I like Eds' ethos, a straight up bloke who doesn't rely on BS marketing, complex designs or "special editions" to sell guns. In my own experience he's ready to help and tells it how it is, a rare but refreshing change in this day and age.
Who ever manages to blag this cracking little shooter shouldn't be disappointed

Out of the 8 PCPs that I own and those that I've had, my three favorites are the EDgun Leshiy, R5 30 cal (long), and 22 cal Lelya. All of which permanent spots in my collection. You can't go wrong with any of the EDGuns!

AEAC,
Hey Steve dont be afraid to push that velocity up some they love pushing the JSB's faster. Try the 25.4 jsb at 946 +/- fps. You might be surprised. Also not uncommon to balance the hammer spring with regulator and see extreme spreads of 3 to 12. This info is in regards to the R3M series and have not shot the R5M to date.
Really looking forward to your video. EDgun best of the best, in my eyes!

This is good advice for any owner... but Steve's job is to test it like it comes from the Manufacturer.
I'm glad he showed the shot strings from both 300b & 250b. I rarely fill any of my guns to max pressure (unless I'm headed to the field without any air source). I equate it to constantly running an engine at high RPM's. 55 shots at 900fps sounds great.
