Hi guys my name is Fahad and i hail from bangalore. Loved the sport of shooting since childhood. To my luck my dad preserved his Diana 35 and 45 .22 from the time he purchased them in the late 80's. The rifles are in great condition especially the 45, its deadly, just rips through everything. But the only thing that i miss in these rifles is the Scope. I want you guys to help me out with info on buying the scope for it. For info: They have scope mount rails.
Thx
Diana 35 and the deadly 45.

Scopes are easily available for sale. The vintage 35 and 45 are medium powered guns and you can fix a variety of scopes. Do post pictures of your guns.

Re: Diana 35 and the deadly 45.
Fahad,
You are very lucky indeed.
The Diana 35 was Diana's unsuccessful entry into the realm of what was then "magnum" class airguns, they got that right with the Diana 45.
Both of them are great for shooting with open sights but if you must put scopes then go for Leapers or Hawke Airmax range. They are strong enough to be put on spring powered air rifles like Diana...Make sure you use special Leapers mount DN034 and weaver rings to mount.
How about a picture of the pair for everyone to drool on ?

As an example of overcoming adversity, Karoly Takacs has few peers. He was part of Hungary’s world champion pistol-shooting team in 1938, when an army grenade exploded, crippling his right hand. Ten years later, having taught himself to shoot with his left, he won two gold medals in the rapid-fire class.

Hi Fahad,
keep an eye on the sales section of this forum. Scopes pop up for sale often.
