as all of you know, my 34 develop a crack in the wood stock so I had to call UMAREX for a replacement
guess what?? $84.00 for wood and $94.00 for Panther "plastic" stock, my Lord as much as a Demo gun from them
but Ryan from Umarex told me to buy a refurbished Panther in .22 cal. for $135.00, change stocks and PRESTO, have replacement parts for my other (2) 34's
warren
PS: Tim; you are going to receive a 34 with a little crack in the wood Airmailed to you compliments of "Warren's" graveyard. LOL
and remember "it's 30% the gun and 70% the shooter"
There's a lot of reference material in many gun books on repairing stocks. Even split wrists can be fixed so that they are presentable. If you don't like the result because the crack is visible, you could paint the stock. Not much different then from a plastic one.
Why doesn't Umarex just sell two guns to everyone?
Alot goes on behind what posts here LOL.! And see my post to Johannis. He heleped my uncle out on parts ect. & saved alot of $$ for him. Send me that 34 stock & I will fix it,It better not have a barrel attached to it!!LOL.! To the 4-h guys here,if you need any guns or parts & would like to bypass the red tape b.s. post to Johannis,he is a rock. Tim.
I assume we are talking original Diana parts that we can't get from Umarex? That's good to know! Thanks Tim. I tell you, you can't ask for a better forum than this when people are willing to go out of their way to help a fellow Dianawerk member.
