Worst Diana

[Hsing-ee]

Diana G80 was the last gasp from Milbro, made in Scotland. I think the metal bits were the same as the 79, but the 80 stock had a cheek-piece and a rubber butt-plate.

It's not an 'Original' Diana made in Germany.

To be fair it was an inexpensive rifle, and should be compared to the BSA Meteor Super of the time. The G80 had a slightly better trigger than the Meteor. The 80 had a brief moment in the sun as the basis of the Airgunaid SP5 off the shelf 'tuned' rifle, which was the first spring powered rifle in .20 calibre. I think they squeezed 10 fpe out of it in this form.

Not to be confused with Original Dianas or RWS Dianas or the Weihrauch 80.

Yep, the G79 and G80 were Milbros, not at all fair to blame them on Mayer & Grammelspacher in Germany, the makers of real Dianas.
