Wanted (I know, wrong section....) - FAS 604 or Diana model 5

[stelfy]

Thought I'd post it in here for a more targeted audience (no pun intended!)

I am in the process of selling my much loved LP10E because to be fair I don't have the time to commit to shooting at the level this pistol is capable of acheiving, but by the same token I can't go without completely!

I'm looking for a FAS 604, right hand medium grip preferred but not essential if I can get an aftermarket grip - but must be in clean, well looked after original condition

Or.... a Diana Model 5 in .177 (there are a few .22 out there, but no good for my needs), again must be in very good working condition - as an early example would now be cracking on for 50 years old cosmetic (wood and blueing) wear would be acceptable, but must be 100% complete and original

Whats out there?

Why a Diana Model 5? They are comparable with many other recoilling pistols, going that direction you will eventually get back to the Webley Junior & the GAT! There is no comparison! I don't mean this to read as cras as it will so apologies. (limited intelligence on part )

Do you mean the recoiless Diana Model 6 or 6m or even the Model 10 maybe?

Don't discount the SSP pistols from FWB, Pardini etc., all are very good & not too expensive if you shop around.

First ever air pistol was a Model 5, and in a lot of ways just want to go back to basics - can't justify using hundreds of pounds worth of pistol to plink in back garden or occasionally make it along to a club night
