    Diana 35 Anniversary

    Has anyone else noticed these on the Veranderhaus Schnitzel site? Looks like a 280 action with a long barrel and the nice metal sights. The thing that entices me is that they are only 229. 95 euros. Nice little gun I think.

    Yes took delivery back in November (I think)- time flies.

    Anyhow the gun is actually a 34 in disguise not a 280. But all the same its a little cracker. Good standard of finish and marked up as the anniversary with very high standard of finish to bluing. More through luck than design when I ordered they had a further 5% discount that weekend so I had it cheaper than the 229 euros.

    People with more knowledge of these things than me advise that the stock is actually the same that was/is fitted to the Diana 36. It is excellent VFM at that price but when the exchange rate was better it would have been a give away.

    If you need photos let me know.
