That’s why I’m hesitate to buy one HPA from there, it’s in the shopping carts for several times. My CF tank is expiring. Thanks for advise. I saw Wingman got one 500cc small bottle. I thought he must tested. But anyway, I remember ED said once, China maybe make good stuff for first batch, but cannot trust them for all they make later.
sorry. Let’s go back to Lelya.
You can call me paranoid but I’d never buy HP tank from aliexpress… 300 bar is not a joke. Only certified official source imho. I know alli is cheaper but if a scope fails – it’s just money. If 300 bar tank fails – it can be fatal.
I agree, HPA is not a place I would what to skimp my money on.

The reticle is fine and useful. Thanks.
Your pic is not bad at all, looks cool with side wheel.
FFP is nice, but it’s not side focus. The website has some good stuff for us. CF tank, compressor etc.
.
This is another that caught my interest, FFP but I didn’t like the front focus.

Both can be cool on the Leshiy as well !
~ Greg
Sure, not as professionally done as yours but I try ?
I moved the front ring forwards to make room for my fingers.
The yardage markings are in reverse but I don’t care.

Making the Hawke side wheel hack was easier than I though !
Drum sand the ID to fit through the scopes side focus knob.
Deburred the side wheel edges ….
Used an old bicycle tire tube for the insert ……
Tighten the 3 hex fixings ……
Tighten the 3 side wheel screws from the other side ……. careful, mind the scope tube.

Could you post side pic of that Lelya with your new scope? It looks really cool!

Not me, I got that picture from the China website ……. :rofl:
You are right about the Hawke side wheel, thank you Sir !!
It’ll make for a better fit than the UTG on the right.
Just need to make its ID a bit larger from 1.497″ to the scope side focus which is 1.51″+ OD.
If the Black Cherry wood is old large diameter it’ll be a crying shame to burn it.
I’d also look under the bark and look for any rippling that would indicate any flame/curly figure which will be valued more so.
My Lelya 20 cal shoots JSB 13.73g @ 800 fps is about the same level of sound as my Matador 22/offset mod tuned to shoot JSB 18 g @ 920 fps.

Wow, some fine looking optics, all right. Do you think a Hawke “captains wheel” will fit the side focus knob?
Kind risky pokin that gun out of the window; you might get an all-expense paid trip to Cuba!
I’ve been getting ready to retire and doing a lot of tree clearing around the house. Just dropped a big Black Cherry and am trying to figure out what to do with the log. I wonder if it’s good for gun stocks? The smaller chunks will get cut into meat/fish smoking sections, but the long log is too nice for burning.
I’ve been watching Leylas ever since Ted stole Hoot’s! There are too many great pcps out there and new ones keep popping up. The last one in the collection was a .45 Bushbuck, shooting 365 gr. noslers-what a cannon! The .20 Leyla sounds like the perfect rodent gun. What’s the sound like, compared to say, a R3M?
Very fine Glass Etched Reticle, this picture is blurrier than the actual clarity and brightness I’m getting through this scope.
A beautifully Illuminated Reticle also: Red/Green/Blue (only the valued area is lit)
~ Greg
Nice fit. How’s the reticle? is it thick reticle? Grey.
.
Off with the BugBuster and on with my new ohhunt HL 3-12X44 SF.
So far I’m extremely impressed with this little scope of the price.
The glass reveals my SWFA clarity throughout from 3-12.
My only gripe is the side focus is hard to turn and because of which I’ll need to fit a large wheel onto it somehow.

Airbrained, You on the east coast? The Sycamore leaves, Ash, Locust and dead Ailanthus trees sure look like VA.

Yep, that is my old Lelya! Glad it found a good home and someone is going to shoot it more than I did. I took one tree rat with it too. The little .20 hits hard.
I did get the stock art idea from Pietr. Thought it was pretty cool. I was going to take it off before I sold it but i think its appropriate for the little blaster.
Glad to see the Lelya’s getting some attention again.
Enjoy!
