Reply With QuoteI paid £400 for a very clean working example a few years ago from a gun shop. It came with an original sling, which tend to fetch around the £100 mark on their own.
It would be interesting so see some pics.

Just in casual conversation with an old mate I haven't seen for ten years, he believes he has an early (1930's) Diana.
" you know, the one that they used in Germany as a military trainer with the extra wood on it to make it look like their standard rifle. Has a big flat swivel flip-over thing on the back of the rifle as a safety..."
No pics(yet). Hasn't been used in years, was his dad's... Up in the attic so have to wait for him to rummage.
What is a likely price range from 'bag if bits' ranging to 'top end/good nick' ?

I sold this one at Holts for about £450 IIRC a few years ago. So I ended up with £22.50...

Sorry Abe, I wasn't being serious - it was just a wry comment on the large slice Holts takes out of the winning bid. It probably left me with £330 or something after deductilons? I'm not sure exactly. Actually, that particular rifle sold for a pretty good price, so my final cut wasn't that bad...Originally Posted by abewilson

I'm waiting to hear back from my mate, but won't be until later in the week. Soon as I get any pics I'll post them up. Definitely worth while tracking down...
