Diana 45

[Geezer]

It would be nice to see it back with new internals but the 34 has all bases covered these days.

Agreed. The 31/34/36/38 is no better, but is cheaper to make, in part because it shares parts across the Diana springer range. It is 1 or more ft/lbs more powerful as the 45, in unrestricted markets, and about half a pound lighter.

And, much as I like the 45, the stock is not great and the barrel is a tiny bit too long.
