    Diana Stormrider

    A new release (?) from Diana and listed by Versandhaus Schneider in their recent leaflet. A PCP in .177 that seems very cheap at 229 Euro, maybe aimed at the junior market? This is the first I have heard anything about this rifle.
    Not sure what to make of it.
    Cheers, Phil

    You could say the same for the Diana Oktoberfest.
    Interesting stuff from the old lady

    It's basically a re-badged chinese-made Snowpeak Pr900w.

    Well, what a let down. But maybe expected these days. Just goes to show you can't trust anyone these days. No doubt trying to sell off the back of a good name. Shame on Diana. Or maybe not if that is the only way to generate revenue.
    Whatever ... cheap as chips?
    Cheers, Phil

    Unfortunately Diana gave all that old spiel that their Chinese made airguns are given a quality check by their own German staff upon delivery. By all accounts on the GTA that isn’t the case. Just a load of bull to probably justify the extra they charge over a normal Artemis.
    Don’t get me wrong, I’m not knocking Artemis, I own a M16 and M30 and really can’t fault them for the money I paid. It’s Diana my grievance is with, as I also own real Diana’s.

    Apparently a batch of about twenty five of these have come into the country.
    I'm getting one for a bit of fun. Hopefully can't do too much damage indoors at 1.5 ft llb
