did the favour you did not turn out so well?
A non airgunning mate of mine rang me to say he had a couple of Diana airguns...a rifle and a pistol that I could have in exchange for a previous favour. I was really interested in the break barrel and pistol....until they arrived!

I must try to stop being an optimist! I envisaged an old classic rifle and a lovely pistol, not almost scrap and the worlds gayest cowboy pistol
Oh well some more rifles to look at this coming week, I bet they will be amazing.

If you ever get a non-airgunner saying they have a couple of Diana airguns for you, the overwhelming odds are that they will be mass-produced cheapies. Statistically the likelihood of them being rarities are miniscule, of course. But I know what you mean about the optimism - it's a trait that we collectors need to learn to suppress.

In British slang an anorak is a person who has a very strong interest in niche subjects.
Like the gay cowboy pistol.
Go well with Village People outfit I have lying around somewhere.
Glad to see that others afflicted with the airgun bug can also be blinkered!
