Re: About Diana Air Guns
Kezar,
All manufacturers will have this problem of low cost airguns from China.
I guess its upto us, the customer, to go for quality products and keep quality conscious manufacturers in business. It is heartening to know that Diana, Weihrauch and other german manufacturers are not cutting corners on quality inspite of the fact that some of them are getting components made in china.
I know for sure that Weihrauch still makes all components for their air guns in Germany. But economic realities these days are influencing business decisions. Which is sad.....

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.

> Agree with FF, hand it to the Germans - 'Achtung', it's all about precision & performance.
> Even if some of the parts are farmed out to China (for economic reasons) the back-end QC will accept only the perfect parts as they have a reputation to protect.
> For the Germans 'Guarantee' means commitment to quality.
