I noticed RWS airguns aren’t as prevalent as they were years ago. Also the models seem the same. Did they stop making them?
RWS Airguns
- Thread starter Northwoods
- Start date
Yeah...think their new direction is going the Chinese route.
They really haven't made any new changes to the lineup, except discontinuing a bunch of models.

RWS was a USA Marketing label, Not a Brand or tied to any one sub manufacturer. Tho MANY of the RWS branded guns were made in Germany by Diana / Nobel

Yeah..54 460 maybe even the 350.
Sad
There is a video on youtube of the Diana manufacturing plant. Just shows people assembling products from parts....out sourced. No manufacturing going on there...just like Crosman.
Look for the older stuff, from any manufacturer...much better than the new stuff.

Maybe i will have someone rebuild it , as i do not know anything about rebuilding , might be a better idea .

what caliber is it? are you interested in selling it?
rebuilding shouldn't be hard, as long as you can get the piston seal and a spring..
if you can source the parts I'd rebuild it for you.

I picked up a 54 a few months ago and got parts from ARH. Spring, piston and breech seals. Getting parts is not a problem. Working on the 54 was not that bad either, not break barrel easy but simple enough. A spring compressor is a must as well as a custom spacer block to out at the rear of the action to protect the safety while rebuilding.

so is it true that Diana 54 is totally discontinued or is it a issue with terrifs and not shipping to the US?
