350 Mag, 54, HW 30.jpg
The Diana 350 Magnum in beautiful curled walnut stock is a brute. However I am really lucky that it shoots really smoothly. No twang at all. The recoil is interesting :)

The Diana 54 is a gorgeous shooter. The consistency of this one is just amazing. I love the way it make tight groups.

The HW 30 is just an absolute pleasure to plink with. I really enjoy shooting this for hours.

Chief, not into fire arms or airguns or shooting sports but the one with the walnut stock's so pretty, will make some very nice knife handles :D :D Maybe you let me fire one someday... :mrgreen:

Hi AK27, These have been with me for many years. They look new because I invest a lot of tender love and care on them :D . The Diana 54 and Diana 350 were procured before 2007 when they were reasonably available and could be imported. :D
