Indians For Guns

hi all

while surfing through internet many a times i come across modles of air guns called rws which are identicle to diana

can anyboby clarify the diana/rws difference {if there is some}

thanks

They are merely 'badged' differently for different markets. Other than that, they are the same.

RWS is or was the importer of Diana air rifles to the U.S. unless I am again talking thru my hat. But its the same stuff.

few days before i was reading a blog of a persom from amarica and foolish was comparing between rws 350 mag and diana 350mag . and according to him both had a lot difference

if i remember the link i will post..
he is the guy who confused me...

RWS is the US importer for Diana as people pointed out. IIRC, one difference might be in the power. I believe Airguns made for the European market are all limited under 12 foot pounds. However, Airguns made for the US market are not.

RWS is the American Importer for Diana Airguns. The ones sold in america do not have a velocity limiter. You can check if yours has the limiter, below the diana logo there will be a F in a pentagon which means your gun does have it.

Also due to differing tastes, sometimes USA specific models may have a different stock design - case in point the Beeman R1 stock as compared to the one on the Weihrauch HW80.

Yep RWS are the sole importers of Diana airguns in USA and sell them under their own badge there.

The 'F within a pentagon' only applies to those airguns whose muzzle velocity energy is less than 7 or 7.5 Joules.

Muzzle energy, Mack The Knife, not velocity. Does not apply to air rifles sold in the US, but does not require a licence in the EU.

Mea culpa!
