The Lelya, Leshiy, and now the Leshiy 2, have camped out near the top of my short list for many years now. I've been quite close to purchasing an L2 recently, but the occasional accuracy complaints have kept me from doing so. It's a fairly considerable investment, and I already know that if any gun can't consistently hit dimes at 30yds without heavy modifications (which is a quite reasonable metric for airgun accuracy these days), then I won't be happy with it and it will be rejected.
As an aside, I was a bit surprised by an above comment referring to the L2 as "affordable"
I think the L2s currently start at around $2300 now, if I recall. While that's not the absolute most expensive, I'd say it's still in the 1 percentile of most expensive for a stock COTS gun, and since it is so small, it is likely the most expensive airgun by weight if you think of it like buying meat at the grocery store
Apologies, I wasn't referring to the gun itself as being affordable. Shooting massive quantities of airgun pellets is far more affordable than shooting, say, massive quantities of .50 cal, or 12-gauge. I can take my son to the range and have him shoot 200+ pellets, with relatively little work by him or myself.
But I see my comment could easily be misunderstood for something else. Being semi-automatic also makes it easy to start my son early. He wouldn't have been able to handle a springer or a multi-pump when 7yrs old.
