HEY check this out! ($279 Diana model 52 and others...)
« on: April 21, 2010, 09:37:15 AM »


Got an email from Airguns of Arizona; didn't even realize I was on their list lol. Sounds like they're doing some sort of phase-out of current Diana options on some models (not the models themselves), and they've listed some decent prices:



Diana 350 Feuerkraft $269.00



Diana 34 Meistershütze Pro (scope package) $215



Diana 34 Panther Pro (scope package) $199



Diana model 52 $279

Yea, though I walk through the garden in the shadows of pests,
I will fear no squirrel: For thou art with me;
thy scope and thy trigger, they comfort me.

I would buy a 52 if I could shoot it but they are a bit too much for me. Get it while you can. I think Air Gun Depot has run out.

Tax refund or not, I shouldn't be buying right now. But that '52 is pretty darned tempting. I've gotten my hands on a model 48 couple times and liked it a lot, except for the length of pull. Which makes the '52 especially tempting 'cause its stock is an inch longer.

Not really. There aren't that many 52's being cleared out. AGD's inventory went quickly.

I ordered the Panther Pro scope package on Friday morning. It was in my PO Tuesday morning. On checking AofA had a 5 shot chrony string attached showing how it shot. Also had a sheet checked off by the person who did the test and checkoff of various things to make sure all was well.

FAST service. Well packed. That is all the sweeter by such a good deal... and the rifle shoots well in my initial sighting in and first blackbird. Now to shoot without 25-45mph winds and gusts the next few days.

That price on the 52 is freaking ridiculous!  I've been in the market for a 350 but after seeing that price I'm sold, just finished ordering one.  Thanks for posting this up!! :D
