Milbro / Diana production records.

There are indeed a lot of similarities, I wonder if that's it? Good thought.

I'll bet that Milbro G55 pictured by Trevor has something in common with the pre-War Diana model 30, which presumably Milbro was familiar with.

Danny,
That is a very beautiful rifle and looks to be of high quality. I can see the origin of the Original mod.50.
That's another one I would like. !
Need to win the lotto.

I was wondering how come they did not start making the pre war Model 5 pistol over here?
I would have preferred that to a G2 or G4.

I have recently refurbished a pre-war Diana 27. The Diana name and the Huntress symbol is just about visible on the action. The barrel has Diana Luft Gewehr stamped on top and Made in Germany stamped underneath. But on the underside of the breech I found 11.28 stamped in small numbers. I am assuming this means it was made in November 1928. I have another marked 6.26 which I assume is June 1926. But I have also seen rifles with no 'date stamp' marking at all.
Cheers, Phil
