if you want parts and service buy a beeman or almost anything but a diana.. on the yellow forum, word is that since the acquisition of diana by umarex, there is a whole new corporate philosophy and attitude... looks like diana's "goin' gamo" on its loyal customers...
that Umarex has purchased or taken over for RWS, Diana is still Diana and hopefully that will always be! Us fortunate Canadians don't have to worry about this corporate poo because we can by Diana labelled AG's and apropriate parts. The same goes for Weihrauch here in Canada, the only Beeman labelled products you can by here are the poo they stamp there name on, deffinately not the HW products.
Simply put, RWS imported Diana and other brands to the U.S. and stamped there logo on them, they never produced squat. Same goes for Beeman, no more than an importer/marketer group.
I guess if the U.S. Diana fans want genuine Diana parts for Diana AG's, they'll have to get them through Europe or Canada. I like my HW's and Diana's, I don't think I would ever purchase anything labelled "Beeman" or "RWS". JMHO,
