Thanks for posting those pics John. Several beauties in there and I await your AGW article with anticipation!

Very interesting Diana mod 6 woodstock pistol. It's a strange one - it is in a rare 1st pattern box and seems to have a 1st pattern front sight, but the wood grip appears to be dark stained beech with a Diana badge, like the first mod 5s, rather than the 'usual' lighter walnut with a blank area where the badge is on these early mod 6s.

I think that red instruction booklet in the box may be a 1970s one, or at least has the same cover design as the later ones.

But several of these mod 6 woodstocks have turned up with anomalous features, so no reason to think funny business.

Could you email me higher res pics of this pistol if you have them, please?
