Guess I must be mr lucky, I’ve bought 5 leapers 3×9, 3×12, two 4×16 and a 10×50. The 3×9 glass not great fairly blurry around the outside diameters. It’s to only one that has been on a gun and fell over and bent the horizontal adjustment turret. I just unscrewed the turret and straighten it. Been shooting great going on 2yrs since the ouchie. All the others work fine hold zero great. Can’t say that bout all my crosman based barreled guns. Just a small bump on the barrel means oh damn got to re zero this gun again lol. My 2nd Mrod Airmax compressor still holding it own.
I also had problems with the Leapers line of scopes . Bought 2 new scopes , one for my .25 Talon SS and one for my .25 Vulcan . Right out
of the box both new scopes had the same problem the elevation would not work . E-mailed the manufacture , told them what the problem
was and they said to send back both scopes in original package separately which cost me $23.00 each . Ten days later I get 2 brand new
scopes back in the mail . Opened them up and put one on both guns . Guess what ? I had the same problem with both new scopes coming
from the manufacture , both scopes would not allow any elevation adjustments at all just like the first 2 scopes . E-mailed the guy that I
was dealing with the company and told him that he sent me two more pieces of shit that was brand new and didn’t work , what was the
quality control people doing , apparently nothing . A total of 4 brand new scope and all 4 wouldn’t work and all 4 scopes had the same
problem . Told him to kiss my ass , I wasn’t going to spend any more money for returning them and told him to keep his piece of garbage
scopes and that I would never buy their scopes again and I would tell anyone who wanted to buy their scopes the problem that I had with
their scopes so don’t be surprised if they sent them a fucked-up product .

I understand the issues with the Leapers. They shouldn’t sale things that don’t work as they should… They price things at a bargain, but when it doesn’t work right, doesn’t matter to me how good a bargain it is; its all junk I don’t want at that point.
I will say when bargain shopping for glass, the Simmons product has always been spot-on to repair or replace there products for me.
I loaned my old Condor once to the police here to help with skunks at night. One of them dropped the Condor out the window and broke the glass… I wrote a letter explaining everything and told them I expected to pay for the repair, they told me they wouldn’t hear of it and all I paid for was shipping and insurance. Just doesn’t get any better than that IMO…
I have several Hawk scopes now the 8-32 power SF model, really like them also. I just don’t loan them out.
There is a bigger price for these and Hawk has a new model out that is 5-30 power now that looks and reads really well.
As I have gotten older I find myself just glassing things, watching the varmints and the bigger power really is nice for that…
Hope you can get this all sorted out soon with the glass problem. Sure appears the compressor is working really well. Sure has my interest. I use 6000 psi
Nitrogen cylinders to fill from right now. To hard to fill the scuba tanks and I hate my hill hand pump 🙂
Mark Koch Well here goes ,, after all weekend of burning through 2800 pellets in my wild cat and armada ,, I found out some things ,, one, leapers scopes are junk , after sending back 3 scopes I still have a piece of shit !!!, will not hold zero .. At all ,,, can put any thing else on my wildcat and , Bam, no problems , the center point that came on my armada can put on eather gun and no issues put the leapers on eather gun and you are chaseing zero ,, once you get zero 10 min later Way off , This is the third scope after returning 2 that will not hold Zero ,, ON A FUCKING PCP GUN!!!,, WITH NO RECOIL !!! Sorry for the Cuss,, I am so fed up with leapers JUNK and they will not refund my money they want to give me credit for there other SHIT, and it is suposed to be US made oh well , you would think that the compressor would be the issue , Hell no , it works like a dream , Quiet smooth and no sign of moisture in the in line filter,, I love this pump !! ,, The Hill is retired , did not like even after replaceing the filter material i still had water in my guns ,,, NOT GOOD !! ,, I charged both guns a total of 13 times each this weekend and then tore the Armada down to look in the air tube ,, Bone dry!!!, My review so far on the pump,, Time will tell on the compressor but i think it will last , seems well made compared to my friends shoe box that he has soooo much money in,, pre compressor,four inline filters, to stop the moisture and now 7 belts that he has replaced plus the shoe box , His rig looks like reactor room of the star trek Enterprise on a cart,, he was here and burned some lead with his RAW ,, Nice gun ,,, And needless to say ,, one shoe box will be going up for sale soon ,, ordered the aireagle today from my computer ,,
These little guys have a thermal cut off switch that turn themselves off when they get too hot in the bottom end, they cant be turned back on until cold. This normally happens at about 35mins of run time.
They will fill larger tanks but need to be done in 15min stages letting it cool for at least half an hour between fill attempts.
They are not designed to fill larger bottles from empty but will cope with 180bar to 300 bar top ups no probs.
On speed it says. This model’s Stage Compression System is three stage, it take about 3 mins to fill full 0.35L tank to 30MPA (6000 psi).
0.35L = 0.0124 CU ft.
1 L/min = 0.035 SCFM at 60°F
Same question..but mine is 6.8ltr tank ???
Im curious about the quality and lifetime of this little compressor??
I have own the Omega for more than a year and works very good… in fact it worths the money…i even refill my friends tank … if this little compressor has a good quality like omega then i will go to buy one soon
Can this compressor will fill up a 88 carbon fiber tank?
Yes it has a filter in line before the foster fitting , after 11 fills i checked the filter and it was bone dry, the pressure line to your gun/tank is mounted at top of the collector block while the pressure release is at the bottom
This is the older version of the one I am reviewing here:
http://www.talonairgun.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=52&t=35895
This newer one has a new water jacket design for improved cooling and second stage compressor life.
Thanks for the info you on this compressor. What about moisture? Does it have a system for ensuring dry air?
With shipping and all it came to 380.00 ,,have been burning through pellets like crazy today not having to pump by hand ,, I am very happy with this compressor , It is very well made
Heck, the above hyper link says 190$
Is that the price of this and what you just got? Looks pretty nice, might be the right size for rifle fill. I have not heard of these and know nothing about them.

Well sent the third scope back with the promise that the next one will be good ,, I have no faith at this point , had some of my Air gun friends over for some BBQ and a little shooting fun and a little gambling on the range , The wildcat was on fire against the RAW,swapped money back and forth all night , Had two Marauders , one Edgun ,RAW, and a Gladius , All the guns shot dam good and it had a lot to do with the trigger man, Trading guns between rounds shows that it has more to do with person shooting than than the gun ,, The Ace eagle kept all the guns charged and worked flawless , checked the in line filter several times for moisture and so far still dry, The Schmidt & Bender scope on the RAW is a fine and i mean FINE piece of glass, Would love to have one on the Wildcat but i can not afford the price tag, But mounted on the RAW made for one sweet shooter
