I recently bought a 1978 Original/Diana 23 for my seven year old nephews to train with. It's perfect, although there's no scope provision. I say I bought it for my nephews, more correctly I bought it for myself using my nephews as an excuse. Really great, fun little rifle.
How about the Gamo Delta? That always struck me as an ideal junior rifle. Are they still made?
