Things I liked:

I have a 48 in .177. This is an outstanding air rifle with great power in .177 cal. Shoots Sovereign Hunter 10.33 grain (made by JSB) at 890 fps for 18 fpe. Only springer in my extensive collection that can hang with my TX200 .177.

Things I would have changed:

Only thing that I don't like is a rather short length of pull. Fit, finish, workmanship are top notch.

What others should know:

I built this rifle for HFT competition. Removed the factory stock and put a custom Craftsman VIT stock on. This helped up the weight. (I want the gun as heavy as possible as this reduces the guns movement due to its high power) Along with a Bushnell Match Pro scope and RWS Lockdown mount the rifle is just under 13 pounds. I'm putting this info out there so people can learn about how a mag springer works. More weight = less gun movement = better accuracy.

Things I liked:

The Diana 48 is a well made, solid, heavy duty air rifle. Fit and finish is top-notch. Accurate at relatively long ranges. Excellent trigger and iron sights.

Things I would have changed:

The rifle is fairly heavy, and needs a sling. I ended up installing sling swivel studs and padded sling.

What others should know:

You'll need a sling if you plan on hunting with the rifle. Recoil is fairly snappy, so if you scope it, be sure to use an optic mount setup that has a recoil stop pin. Although heavy, the rifle is well balanced, and reminds me of the M1 Garand in weight and feel. Pesting, paper-punching, or plinking, the 48 does it all. A great gun for the money.

  • Michael from USA asked:

    Does this model have the same floating barrel as the 56 model?

    • Paul from USA answered:

      I think you mean sled, no it's a fixed directly to the stock.

  • Haleigh from USA asked:

    Is it possible to umbend the side lever on this gun?

    • Mark from USA answered:

      The inner rod of the cocking assembly is soft steel as a safety feature. It could be straightened if bent. You would have to remove it. The replacement part is Cocking Rod, Attaches to Cocking... (OFS) or contact Umarex USA . They may have the cocking rod in stock.

  • ELVIS from USA asked:

    Which series trigger does this have? T05, T06

      TO6 trigger.
