Field targets will quiver as you raise your .177 cal. RWS 52! In Stock
The RWS 52 is the action of the RWS 48 dressed up in a Monte Carlo beech stock (one inch longer) with a sculpted cheekpiece. For better control, they've added checkering to the grip and forearm. The changes in the stock configuration make an already-great gun even better. Loading is done through a sliding breech mechanism. Like the 48, this rifle can be used for field target, plinking, hunting, target shooting and spinners. This sidelever spring-piston rifle is popular among airgunners who want the best of all worlds: affordability, power and accuracy.
To get the most accuracy from this powerhouse, mount a scope. It'll come in handy, whether you're shooting at field targets or quarry.
We've recommended a variety of appropriate pellets, which are listed in the AMMO link. You'll need a robust scope, so check out our suggestions in the ACCESSORIES link, where you'll also find other shooting necessities.

and the trigger, simply beautiful. Things I would have changed:I don't like the sights.Luckily it's nothing a file or scope won't fix. You'll also have to remove the latteral play in the Windage direction caused by the slop in the Elevation hinge. I remedied this by cuting two pieces of thin plastic (salvaged from the recycle bin) and placing them on the sides in- between the fixed and movable pieces of the rear sight as bushings. What others should know:I've had mine now for three years this x-mas. I've had well over 150 kills with this rifle, some out to 35 yds with open sights. This rifle will outshoot me. If you miss from under 35 yards, it's because you missed , period. Buy the absolute best scope mount configuration, it is imperative. Beeman .22 crow magnum for hunting, and .22 crossman premiers for accuracy.

Things I liked:The workmanship is excellent. I wn the .22 caliber version. I am finding this gun is as much a go-to gun as my Beeman R9 double gold. The Iron sights are pretty good but with a scope, you just can't miss. My general shooting range is between 25-40 yards so find the iron sights are very sufficient. Why do I use the iron sights

The Iron sights are pretty good but with a scope, you just can't miss. My general shooting range is between 25-40 yards so find the iron sights are very sufficient. Why do I use the iron sights so much you ask? This gun is tough on scopes having gone through 2 scopes already after about 3000 shots. I admit I have not spent much on a really good scope but since my ranges are not that far out, I find the Iron sights suficient. I'm getting about 1 inch groups at 30 yards. This gun is very stable and takes a very might hold well. Things I would have changed:Nothing. Maybe a little lighter but the weight probably helps stabilize and make it more accurate. What others should know:Pellets? This gun loves the Crosman Premiers which are a little cheaper than the Beeman Kodiacs. I recently bought a tin of Predator 16gr for hunting and find they are very accurate.
nice works RWS/Diana! This gun has been completely trouble free after 3000plus shots. Its accurate and fun to shoot. Completely worth the money.
Oh, The folks at Pyramid Air couldn't be better to work with really know how to take care of the customer. They are my first place to stop and shop.

I'll be down in the basement shooting out through the back window and my wife upstairs in the kitchen talking to her sister on the phone won't even hear it. ;-) Things I would have changed:Plastic trigger - even though it's perfectly stiff and accurate, I'd still prefer to interface with a metal trigger when it comes to shooting. What others should know:Buy a .22 'Boresnake' cleaner shoelace and enjoy the accuracy. Get them for every weapon you own...they're really good. Add a couple old toothbrushes and you're all set for cleaning.

Things I liked:Hard-as-hell hitting in .22. With the .22 pellets staying subsonic it's very accurate and quiet. Amazing amount of power downrange for an airgun. Seems extremely well built, albeit very heavy.. Weighs more than my 12 gauge shotgun. Things I would have changed:It needs to be lighter. But I guess a titanium receiver

Seems extremely well built, albeit very heavy.. Weighs more than my 12 gauge shotgun. Things I would have changed:It needs to be lighter. But I guess a titanium receiver would cost a bit more. A synthetic stock might help but it would probably also unbalance the gun. What others should know:Accuracy depends a LOT on the pellets used. Get a good variety of heavy (13 grains+) and try them out.

Things I liked:This is my first high quality air rifle and I'm very pleased with it. It's well balanced, powerful and accurate. The workmanship is very good and I like the RWS / Diana logo on the top of the receiver. The wood stock on this model has a raised cheek piece and is a little longer than the 48 which is why I bought it. Things

Things I liked:ACCURACY: Out of the box I had to fine tune the sights, but it did not take long at all. This gun is extremely accurate.
POWER: I have the .177 caliber version. It does just fine for taking down pests such as squirrels.
DURABILITY: When you pick up the gun, you know you are holding something that has been crafted with precision

AESTHETICS: Nice looking stock. The RWS logo looks great. Things I would have changed:I can't think of anything that I would want to change. What others should know:This is a powerful air rifle, whether you choose the .177 or the .22. What ever caliber you choose, you are sure to be satisfied with the purchase of this gun. I know that I am.
