EDgun Leshiy Scope Choices (pics)
I decided to start a new thread where users could post photos of their scope choices on the Leshiy. The gun is so compact it really begs to have a scope that is in line with ED’s concept of a forest walking gun.
Vector Apophis 1-6×28 FFP
UTG Bug Buster 3-9X32 SFP
Vortex 2.5-10X32 FFP

Mines is on the way …… cheap thrills, only about a buck hundred in any which ways – said my wife. :fishinghole:
Got my Bugbuster 3-12×32 Scope in today.
Compared to the old Bug it has more mill dots (like KS said) with a finer wire rad.
Slight blur around at 3x, at 12x a bit more pronounced but what can u say for that price.
On the rear ocular adjustment once set, I used a couple of fat O-rings in the gap opening to keep it from spinning freely.

Members….
It’s painfully obvious that Geyser-Soaker has cleverly Photoshopped internet photos onto his .22 walking stick/pcp!
Do not be alarmed!!! Even as I type, I am waiting for the arrival of my ‘Buster II. Then, and only then, will the real truth be revealed.
Minimal regards,

Nice Brian,
Is seems comparable to the old Bug, but with twice the power.
Hum, will it suit the Lelya also ?
A lesser mass lighter rings would be even cuter still IMO.
Thank for the quickie too …….. :biggrinn:

So I read this latest edition of Leshiy scope choices and to my surprise, some of you are actually waiting for Hoot to review this new Bug Buster 2. I have bad news, you’ll be as old as the mayor of Toad Suck if you are waiting for Horace Foghorn Leghorn to review this scope, so I decided to take the bull by the horns and give you a review that will be quicker than hoot’s smoke signals
QUALITY:
C+ not bad, glass typical for a UTG but the reticle is good, has 10 mil dots and the parallax is close
FIT:
B+ cute as hell on the little Leshiy, eye relief adequate and keeps the gun super light
Mechanics
C++ the turrets are mushy but they seem to track well enough to zero the gun. Not a scope I would trust my life with but I think it will work. Long-term durability is TBD
Here are some photos of the new BB MK2 on the Leshiy
Can’t wait for the Hoot review. hopefully you Fedex’d it oernight here tomorrow morning
:hoot:
I ordered the new “Bug” today. I’ll post results and impressions when it arrives!
Best regards retards,
Kindly ‘Ol Uncle Hoot:
same quality as previous versions?
Heads up on the eye relief like Brian stated above, might be better suited for the Leyla for some ……….
But all in all I like the Bugbuster series they have proven to me to be a great value, good in having in ones arsenal.
…… haven’t ordered one yet, working on other Airgun projects.
Amazon dropped the price in 12 days from $120.

has anyone picked up the new 3-12x side adjustable bugbuster?
same quality as previous versions?
I have owned several Bugbusters over the years. The short length attracted me, and the only thing I didn’t like was the adjustable front objective!
If it comes out with a side adjuster, I’ll buy another one. The mil-dots are always welcome, as is the new additional 12X. I have always felt the Bugbuster series were an excellent buy for the very clear quality of the image.
STD…Thanks for the “heads up” on this!!!

My problem with the bug buster comes from its size; the scope is too short. The Leshiy has a longer LOP, at 14.5 inches I need a scope that lines up with the hinge point to get proper eye relief.
