He is well, thank you for asking, apart from arthritis in his wrists that hinders his shooting and motorcycling.
He has decided to reduce his collection to his beloved BSAs so he thought he'd put hie toe in the water with this very lovely Haenel.
I hope the Diana 54 is still running well, a real mans gun !! Not for the weedy
Best regards
Michael
Glad to hear he's OK Michael.
I look forward to seeing your dad's collection on here as I know he had a few really nice guns.
I hardly ever use the 54 as it's a bit too good for what I wanted it for, but by shear coincidence I bought a 52 from the man who's post on fume bluing inspired me to have a go after my chat with your dad.
I suppose your dad will be keeping his favourite Diana underlever ?
All the best Mick
Yes Dad is only selling some of his collection, although with no interest in this rifle, maybe he isn't !!
I thought this was a great price for a reasonably rare rifle
