Diana Airbug Reviews

Grip fits my hand well, although it’s quite slippery. Iron sights are nice but I removed them and put on a small red dot. Nice that the receiver is already grooved for a mount ( not picatinny, need adapter). I like the mag and the magnetic single shot adapter. The case is very nice but doesn’t fit well with a small red dot attached.

Gun came with the grip very loose. The trigger is not match quality initially by any means. At first, it had a disturbing clunk before the actual pressure could be applied. The pull was measured at 6 pounds with terrible creep. I removed the grip (you need a 2.5 and 3mm allen wrench) to see what the trigger adjustment was doing and adjusted the 1.5mm screw clockwise until the gun wouldn’t cock. Then backed it off until it could be cocked, then backed it out further to be sure of adequate sear engagement. Trigger pull is now quite good with minimal creep and no over travel. Trigger pull is now 2 1/2 pounds same as my Pardini .22 target pistol. If you were using this for anything other than target shooting, you would be better server and safer at around 4 pounds.

Daisy CO2 cartridges don’t work as the compression screw bottoms out before the cartridge is punctured. You will need to add weights to the muzzle as it is not balanced for target shooting.

Planned on this the first time I saw it. Stock/grip is finished so fine and the color is right on too. Got it in .177. Thought I might have to touch it up but its perfect. The grip is a perfect fit to my med sized hand also. Very accurate put on a BSA scope and it is now knocking the center out of any targets fool enough to show up around here. Stock sights are fine but my eyes are slowing down and the scope helped......Loading it one at a time for now but clip is a nice touch and will be trying it soon.

Nothing.

Really nice quality thinking if you like this you will be very happy with it and Pyramyd air is the place to go. Great service, sales and selection. Thanks for everything.

Great pistol and great to do business with, pursued a defective air gun from Midway USA and their customer service would not back what they sold. I will do more business with Pyramid air, great business

Nothing

Please buy from a company like Pyramid air even if it may cost a bit more for shipping because it's worth it in the long run

Diana, quality as usual. The adjustable trigger. .22cal co2 gets about 50 good shots.

It’s pretty loud, a moderator would’ve been good. The magazine is kind of a pita, but I prefer single shot anyways.

It’s worth the money. It comes with a fairly decent soft case, & you can easily cut holes in the foam to securely carry tins of pellets & co2.

This pistol is the best I’ve owned in this price range. The trigger is adjustable and very consistent. Accuracy is excellent at 30 feet. All parts fit and feel perfect. Very easy to shoot and feel secure doing it.

I’m redoing the wood handle to a walnut finish. Everything else is excellent as is.

The few extra dollars on this one is well spent. Don’t cheap out. Treat yourself, it’s a great hobby and this pistol will make you love it even more.

This Airbug and the Chaser Kit were my first Diana pistols. I am very impressed with the trigger, the accuracy, and the quality of the product. It feels good in my hand and is easy to handle and shoot.

Extra effort with the wood stock would have been nice. I plan to do an upgrade on the finish myself. Otherwise, would not change anything.

I was intimidated by the bolt on the left side, but that turns out to be something I like. The bolt action is very smooth. The pistol is really nice to shoot. It comes with a magazine but haven't use it yet. I'm getting about 50 shots per cartridge. I put a holographic red dot on it, and it took a long time to find the bulls eye, but it was worth the effort. I also found an after-market 3D suppressor for it at a good price. Two-year limited warranty, a nice bonus. I give it top ratings all the way.

I like Pyramyd Air's game plan... It vallues customers... Now for the gun... I already have the Chaser & looking to have to have a seperate pistol with wood grips and moderator connection... JOE

nothing to date

Poof and here its here...

Great build quality. Grip is large but very comfortable in hand. I like the left side mounted bolt as I don't have to take my hands off the grip to introduce another pellet. Nice smooth acting metal trigger. nice metal trigger guard. I really like the removable rod to aid in tightening up the co2 canister - be careful not to over tighten.

Factory magazine is pretty fussy and disappointing. Sights are difficult to see so I added a red dot.

All in all, although it has a few negatives I feel this is a great fun air pistol for the money!

After receiving my AirBug I was impressed by the looks the apparent quality, and if other’s reviews are to be believed, it’s accuracy. Unfortunately, because of the heat outside (100+)and inside (96)of the garage where I have a target range set up, I still have not fired it! After next weekend the forecast shows much better temperatures, so I certainly hope to check it out. Good job, Diana and Pyramyd Air!

Nothing so far.Nope

Nope

It is an excellent pistol. Well built. He just has a big problem. And it's your poorly built multiple charger. My pistol is .22 . That charger is a total disaster. Made in China.

Which improve the multiple charger. No use a total disaster. Made in China. I bought another one and it came out worse.

The gun is good. But the multi charger is a total disaster. It does not work . Manufactured in China. As Diana allows that.

Better than I expected. Functions flawlessly. Very comfortable in the hand and very accurate. 11/2 group at 25meters with crosman 14 gr primers right out of the box!

I would ha preferred a wider rear sight notch or a thinner front sight. Wound up mounting a red dot sight . Just couldn’t see the sights.

Excellent trigger too. Easily adaptable. Overall very pleased with my Airbug!!

Liked the overall weight, balance and quality of fit and finish. The grip fits my medium-large hand as if it was custom made. Offhand accuracy at a 50' indoor range, was surprisingly good, right out of the box!!. I also liked the fitted carry bag...

Nothing...

A quality build, solid and simple. Great trigger. Comfortable grip. Parts are interchangeable with the Chaser Kit. Optics ready. Two types of feed. Lots of custom build possibilities.

Nothing.

Pleasantly surprised with this gun. Overall fit, finish, and function are excellent, especially for a gun in this price range. Haven't put it on paper yet, but I can hit the paddles in my Gamo pellet trap offhand every time at 20 yards. I'm getting around 50 full power shots per C02 cartridge. The 9 round mag works fine for me, but the single shot tray is a nice option to have. I have a Chaser Kit in the same caliber and there's a fair amount of parts interchangeability between the two, and the rotary mag works with both. Darn nice adjustable trigger. A great gun for the money.

Sharp looking pistol. Folks who have arthritis in their hands its great. The fact that a storage case comes along is a plus.

When you get older your eyes are quite what they use to be. It sure would be nice if the sights had a truglow or equivalent front and rear sight.

Overall an excellent pistol.

Great trigger out the box. Sights where centered and spot on for windage. Beautiful comfortable wood stock. Cute name.

A second magazine would've been icing on the cake

Co2 is convenient and efficient but needs to be kept warm, 70deg or warmer. This little rig fits under my coat easily for a winters hike and plink.

I ordered this to test out for our youth shooting team. One plus was it had a magazine holding multiple shots. Problem is the mag has too many problems; if they come up with one that works consistently---you'd have a winner. As a single shot -----works great. Now I'll try with a red dot.

mag sucks

Buy Diana chaser and get handgun and rifle.

Everything except the sights and magazine.

Better sights, and better rotary mag.

If you plan on adding a scope, make sure it's not too long otherwise you cannot load the pellets or mag. I purchased a Hawke Vantage Red Dot 1x25 Digital Sight, 9-11mm Dovetail and this pistol scope does NOT fit the Airbug. A little too long. Also check all the fasteners to make sure they are tight, but do not over tighten them. One more thing clean the barrel before using.

I have shot thousands of rounds through this pistol. The grip is very good, the magazine is a bit clumsy, but you can get used to it. Once loaded it works well but the receiver can be double loaded if you become distracted. Love this pistol and would recommend it to anyone.

As a senior, I had to add a dot of paint to the front and rear sights because the black center on the target was hard for me to see. So colored sights would be a nice simple upgrade from the factory.

I have several pellet and BB pistols I shoot in my basement target range. This has become my first choice. As most people already know, the right pellet makes this pistol a tack driver.

Feels good in the hand

Diana needs to get some quality control in place

Mine arrived with the trigger guard off and bolt loose in case, bottom of stock is chipped. It's going back to Diana and I will look at another manufacturer.

Design .

Should have a threaded muzzle like 2240 XL . Thant would make it easier to install a silencer and not need to buy a off market adaptor for it - kinda not solid .

Mine came with dents on the wood handle and really hard time activating and deactivating the safety pin . I thought was stuck . Be aware of this .
