    In British slang an anorak is a person who has a very strong interest in niche subjects.

    Do you mean Dianas, or just military trainers? Most German military-style rifles fired balls, whereas the Diana 30 was a pellet firer.

    The Diana Model 30 was showing as sold earlier this week but it (or another) looks to be back up for sale.

    Interesting rifles these - never intended for the UK market and a far more accurate trainer than the ball firing repeaters, which were its contemporary rivals. Looking t the underlever design, I'd say the Diana/Original Model 50 is a direct descendant of the 30. I have a copy of a Polish advert/ review for the Model 30 somewhere but as my Polish is somewhat rusty, I need someone to translate it before it can be of any use to collectors!

    Kind regards,

    John
