Remember when they cost ???

Just bumping an old thread up, remember when you could buy a 24 or even better, a 27 for less than fifty bucks? I'd take a truck load of them if I could get them now. Shot all 3 of mine tonight and remembered what smooth felt like before PCP's got the market cornered. 10M accurate and able to do 30 yards all day long. May not be able to take out some of the game we do now, but my 27 TO1 is one of the smoothest springers I have ever shot, and my 24's are not far behind it. Just silky, quiet, and accurate. Great sporters at 10 to 30 yards, the 27 and the 24 are as sweet as you can ask for. Not great on power but power wasn't the important point, they are dead smooth and accurate.

Sorry about the incorrect info above, you could have bought a HW 30s for less than 50 bucks, the Diana's were a hundred and five. After reading some of the previous posts about the Chinese guns, I'll take TWO, no, make that THREE truck loads of the older guns from Germany. Most of the stuff they are TRYING to copy in China was built before the slaves making it were born. I don't care how well they do it, I ain't buying that Chinese S#*t. If they do something on their own like the Koreans did with the Career II, I may think about it, but right now it stinks of Di$nasan,and Wier%chesan at Wallymart for 172 bucks for a piss poor copy . I ain't buying it.

What Diana's are those?

I can't find any references to 202/205/207 guns. Milbro Diana's maybe?

Must be misprint on the numbers

I will bet those are 22/25/27 guns. The 202 does not look like a Milbro 22.

Mislabelled

The Diana rifles in the old ad appear to be mislabelled.
The sights, endcaps, and breech exposure at the stockline indicate:-
The 202 pictured appears to be an early 25.
The 205 pictured appears to be an early 22/23.
The 207 pictured appears to be an early 27.

I have never seen a Diana 27 T01.
What is the difference from a standard 27?
