Diana 34

[vestlenning]

After some back and forth with my Diana 34 ( http://www.airgunbbs.com/showthread....nt-pin-problem ) it's now back together.

Work done:
- Muzzle recrowned.
- Barrel a little bent, sorted.
- New breech shims.
- New detent pin (new pin soldered to fill the gap).
- New mainspring and spring guide.
- Trigger (T01) cleaned and relubed.
- Stock stripped, stained and finished with alkanet oil (alkanna tinctoria and boiled linseed oil).



Action doesn't fit the stock with the new cylinder cap on, old one binned so I can't compare them to locate the problem, b****r.

Just ~10 shots fired with the new spring but even without the current dieseling this thing seems to be a lively one. Will put it though a couple of sessions, chronograph it and draw a conclusion.

Seems like a job well done to me the stock looks very nice bud.

Vest: nice.

Jonny: it says “MADE IN WEST GERMANY” on it. I think that stamping continued for a bit after German reunification in 1990, but not too long. So 80s or early 90s?
