AA to build a new break barrel...of course. Mach 1.5

[WILBA]

Gay calibre v the manly calibre

[guy]

Rapid v The rest

AA to build a new break barrel...of course. Mach 1.5

This, plus "piston sleeves, hoax or not"

[Carl2]

"Great rifles you could not get on with" I found this thread enlightening. Having not owned a 95 or any AA I had always promised myself one of each based on reviews yet there were quite a few mentions of both.

Going by price, I'd say no.

A D280 for sale @ £177 new and a new D34 £190 both on GT

Calibre debate.

If there wasn't such a slim choice of .20 pellets ( Why is that ? ) sub 12ft lbs .20 would be the best hunting cal to use at all ranges.

I think covers the cheap Diana's other than the rebadged Chinese ones.

[Geezer]

Pest control with pistols (quickly - rightly - deleted).

The ones on non-airgun where a couple of guys seriously argue that we’d be much safer if everyone could easily own an assault rifle or machine gun, because, you know, it works in America where almost no one ever gets shot by anyone.

Threads about obscure features of Mayer and Grammelspacher rifles suggesting that those features are superior to those on HWs or AAs.

[harvey_s]

Most of them get boringly repetitive quite quickly.
The only ones I don't mind are the search for the airgun holy grail i.e. the cheap Chinese springer that demonstrates that all HWxx owners have wasted their money.

But that's only because the Chinese have a supply of ever changing comedy material to feed to all the cheapskates who don't want to save up

[flintlock50]

Daystate compressed air V ordinary compressed air.

That article was 4 years ago, has production changed since then ? I don't think Diana would be in any rush to tell us.

The trouble with controversial threads of the type you have mentioned is that there is often not a "correct" answer, but it's down to personal preference or taste - or lack of it if your on the other side of the debate

I don't mind the discussion - until the other people start telling you your wrong just because they are not articulate enough to provide a convincingly suitable and persuasive argument for their point of view, then I just switch off because they are clearly morons or trying to get a rise out of me.

(cough, cough - only the devil uses .22 - cough)
