Congratulations, great find! Looks to be in nice condition too.

That’s very kind thank you, much appreciated.

I could…but I think the shipping costs from the UK may put you off…

Thanks for the reply. It seems the general consensus on these triggers is to leave the factory setting alone! Unfortunately some previous owner decided otherwise..

Hi all, I’ve recently acquired an Original (Diana) Model 45 in .20 cal that has a troublesome trigger! It appears it has no 1st stage. In use, it feels like a single stage trigger, with no discernible 1st stage to take up. Would really appreciate any input and advice from all the knowledge...

Fantastic Hyedua stock!

Good looking rifle, seems to be in grear condition too, with some fine shooting. Mine is around 10.5-11ft/lb and seems almost lazy at that.

That Imperator FT is awesome. Early sporter is very nice too. The one I have is so light to cock and with hardly any recoil it’s surprising when you look at the chrono and it’s producing nearly 11ft/lb. It’s super consistent too. What does yours shoot like?

Very nice collection Mike, especially the Dual Magnums, they’re very rare here in the UK.

Thank you . I’ve also got a Sirocco 2000 and an early Grand Prix.

Great looking rifles you have there! Especially the SLR 88 GP. My current favourites are an Ultra Carbine SLR 88 and a standard sporter, and a Taunus. All in .22.

Hi Sonny, Thats an amazing looking example. I didn’t realise they were so rare, the general consensus in the UK is they made around 20 or so of them. I have been extremely lucky to have found one recently, that I swapped for an early SLR 98 carbine!
