EDgun Leshiy Classic L1 : Compact Light

[ChickenDumpling]

Maybe not using the right search terms, so going to post. I'd like to run a slim tactical light off the front of my Leshiy classic ( L1 ) that will still allow folding without touching the stock/air tube. Please let me know what brand/model of light I can run that has great performance? I'm gearing up for those night time garden thieves. Added a picture of my L1:

What about an extended pic rail under the rifle. Should be able to mout it to the section of pic rail just in front of the trigger.

Hope to find someone who has sorted this out with a light and or extended rail that will not interfere with the folding stock. I don't want to sink a bunch of $ trying and failing. Based on a Leshiy 2, seen a picture that used the King version from AGT, but looks like maybe the Uragan would fair better for the Classic Leshiy. For lights, the rechargeable olights have my attention because don't want to pop off the rail just to change batteries. https://talontunes.com/shop/uragan-uragan-king-picatinny-rail/

Going to try:
Low Profile 3 Slots 45 Degree Offset Picatinny Rail Mount Flashlight Sight
Olight PL-Mini 2 Valkyrie

Okay, done posting to me, myself, and I. Will post a picture, if everything comes together as I hope it will.

Those are the best conversations.....unless you loose talking to yourself. Lol

I am looking at either a bottom rail as well, or an angled grip of some sort.

 

[ChickenDumpling]

I might try one of these at some point, recommended by another Leshiy owner. https://www.opticsplanet.com/accu-shot-precision-rail-monopod-prm-with-quick-knob.html

Waiting on the shipping carriers to get me my gear and start shooting the L1.

 

[ChickenDumpling]

Complete fail, no option other than to extend the rail as the folding stock assembly hits the offset mount and or the olight housing. Tried both combinations.

 

[ChickenDumpling]

Slowly getting there ... Uragan rail works out and falls right between the dual tanks and out past the folding stock. Looks like some messed up steampunk bayonet?

 

[ChickenDumpling]

Slight update on the configuration, optic won't work so back to considering a red dot.. Monopod accu shot or javelin lite bipod or just throw on a hand stop right before the light or maybe just a picatinny rail cover up to the light. Going to do a paracord wrap.

Not sure how helpful this will be but I’ll share my Leshiy classic setup. I’m running a zulus with a UTG laser light combo mounted on the right side of the zulus. Zero issues folding and cocking the gun…

 

[mlayton60564]

You could also run this scope ring with Picatinny option available on Amazon. You could mount your light on top or to one side of your preferrence….this is probably a better option for you.

How do you find loading rounds at night with thr L1??

May have to do the same thing with mine

 

[mlayton60564]

I’ve had the gun so long and gotten so used to it, I have zero issues loading rounds at night. Probably my favorite pesting setup right now. Mine is a .25 cal 250mm barrel, Huma reg at 130bar, shooting 26gr polymags at 700 fps. Not the most powerful setup, but very accurate and efficient with air!

Good question. I use Polymag pellets to keep from loading backwards. I also do it really slow so I don't shove it into the transfer port. It takes practice. Kinda awkward when you can hear a rat on the run.

Need to get my optic sorted out, but liking this mobile light weight setup.

May want to check out the Athlon Midas TSP4

Thank you for the suggestion. I had already pulled the trigger on a Trijicon MRO this evening before seeing the post. If the MRO doesn't work on the Leshiy, will move to an infamous powder burner that needs to be finished ... man I really miss building those any way you want it black fire breathing dragons.

I did have an Athlon scope come in on a TX200 off fleabay which was broke - maybe from shipment maybe not. Athlon fixed with no hassle or charge. Like companies like that who simply back the product no matter what. Recall the glass was nice and clear.

So close to being setup on a stealthy little light weight setup to punch out some pesty critters night or day. Back to a single shot loader like my springers. Need to make that shot count!

Sweet setup, revisit my thread just to see your setup time and time again.

 

[Gr8Recreation]

Never owned a Triji but they have a great following for a reason. Enjoy the Leshiy, they are simply awesome.

Finally thar (there)! This little venture is done, went back to the Holosun line with the HS515GM as ran into and learned about astigmatism. I can work with the brightness options to work with my ageing eyesight etc. I see why this little single shot PCP pkg continues to resonate with the air gun community with its feature set. Here is some eye candy to finish off this thread.
