Page 4 - Diana Airbug Reviews

I love this pistol. Handy, inexpensive, accurate with the right pellets, and just looks great. My 5' wife likes it so much, she now owns it. The grip fits her just fine. She really likes the way it balances. We both like the trigger. It isn't spongy like many others.

The case is nice, but make it wider so the pistol will fit with an optic added.

You'll have to try many, many different pellets. My .22 caliber shoots best with 10.04 non-lead pellets. It's CO2, so range is limited. If you don't like the size or shape of the grip, YOU can file it to fit your own hand. I can't tell you if a barrel band makes any difference in accuracy since Pyramid Air still hasn't received them. If you add any kind of optics, it will NOT fit in the case.

Great trigger, very crisp.

Better sights & magazine springs is weak .

Well constructed, great looking feels good in your hand, just a fun fun to own

Buy the pellet holder that gives you 6 shots, I got 2 extras, just load the cartridge and you are ready to go!

I just like the pistol. I have owned a few 22 cal. CO2 air pistols and this is the best because it is well designed, shoots well, not too expensive especially with the target grip and the magazine is great. There are not many 22 cal. CO2 air pistols so if you want a decent one this may be your only choice.

The grip is too large for me. I have to modify it but will be worth the trouble. Wish there were a choice of grip sizes.

Accuracy is good for a pistol in this price range. Very good CO2 pistol for practice of marksmanship basics. Noise level is low enough so neighbors don't complain. Powerful enough to take out small vermin at close range, less than twenty yards. Fit, finish and appearance are good.

More robust rear sight. Tighter sear adjustment screw. Wood grips look nice but are configured for smaller hands than mine. Will probably reshape a little.

Trigger is mediocre but better than other comparable priced airguns, and requires frequent adjustment. Adjustment screw moves. A bit of blue loctite may fix this. Rear sight could be better.
Accuracy starts to deteriorate after 25 to 30 shots, depending on ambient temperature.
This one likes Super Dome pellets. A minor inconvenience since I have a large supply of H&N and JSB on hand.
This Diana model will likely give serious competition to other air pistols at this price point.
I'm glad I bought it. Will likely purchase a similar Chaser for a grandchild.

The magazine was defective. it was replaced promply. Very good support.

First, it is a Diana, so I was expecting a German made pistol. Nope, China. Still, the quality seems very high, and it is a very attractive pistol with great blueing and nice wood. It had one small nick on the grip, which was the only flaw. The bolt on the left side is easy to operate without loosing your purchase on the grip, so you can empty the 7 round magazine quickly. Single shots are much slower, as if the pellets dont enter evenly, they hang up and must be repositioned. Not a problem with the magazine. Accuracy seem spot on at 15 yards, and as it comes set up, it shoots to point of aim at 20-25 yards. Screwing down the rear sight brought it to point of aim at 10-15 yards. Power is good (i am guessing 400fps?) and i am getting 25 or more shots per co2 cylinder in 22 caliber. Overall a very nice backyard gun that is fun to shoot and very satisfying. It comes in a nice zippered carry case, too.

Actually, nothing. It is exactly as advertised and I am very pleased with it.

I am not a hunter, but would probably not hunt with this pistol as it lacks the power to kill cleanly.

have owned pump guns, break overs and even loved my daisy red rider... but this thing is the creme de la creme! dead on at 30 yds out of the box.. I even love the bag it came with, do a little customizing and it is perfect now. the Grip and feel of this thing is so comfortable, i swear they took a print of my hand... the wood is absolutely stunning. My Brothers are both Uber jealous. B. E. A. utiful....

not much, safety button is a little hard to find with my sausage fingers, so it could use a stand-out tag to find easier.

30 rounds full strength seems to be max shots, but there is a lot of low power shots left in a can. be careful pellets bounce back easier with low power. i usually expend the end of cylinders after about 35 shots.

the grip fits my grand daughter's hand perfectly. It is light weight and easy to cock , and the trigger was perfect for her.

I put a Williams rear sight on it which fit right out the box and highlighted the front and rear with white paint.

include more magazines!

Very accurate and fun to shoot.

make magazine loading easy

Everything a pleasure to shoot and very accurate

Nothing

buy one you will love it

Its a nice gun to shoot and my hands are just fine for the grip size. The fit and finish are very nice in this price catagory. The magazine is easy to load and function is very good

I only got about 50 shots and the action would not cycle. Since I have worked on air guns for many years I decided to take it apart and see what gives.. the seat pin had slid out and the trigger pin was also close to the same. The pins are too small and work their way loose. For now I taped them in place but will eventually make my own trigger group pins

Other than the pins on my gun I would say this is a very nice air gun. But if you cant cycle the action check for loose roller pins

i was very impressed with this pistol, set up targets inside "to cold out 17. set sights up in no time shotting at 15 yards in my basement and it is just a joy to shoot. easy one inch groups and getting better. Great gun, set up very nice!!

Nothing

Yes buy one and have some inexpensive fun !!

Diana quality, look of pistol and included fitted case.

Its probably just me, but I find the grips a little large and finish is slick, making accuracy inconsistent .I will likely have to work the grips, reducing palm area and making finish less slippery.

Easy to use and quite accurate

Do not know of anything yet

Quiet enough for back yard

Works great. Comfortable grip, easy to steady, accurate site out of the box.

Larger Caliber .25 and .30 would be great.

The 22 is perfect for target practice. Very well made!

Pistol grip fits well in the hand. Bolt action has smooth operation. Trigger pull out of the box is fine. Smooth take up, and crisp at the end.

Don't get me wrong the iron sights are fine for young eyes, but mine have trouble finding the front post. I am ordering a mini reflex sight for the dove tail. I am not sure even with high mounts I would be able to clear the mag if I want to use any other scope, or reflex sight. That is not to say you can't. I'm just saying that from what I see I'm not chancing it.

Over all a good, and well made fun shooting product.

Everything. It was made for my hand. Right out of the box at 30 ft. it was dead on target. Would have been perfect if it had come with the magazine. Now I have to wait till they are back in tock. Thought the $10 extra for testing it also include making sure it was complete.

Just make sure kit is complete before sending.

I have over 15 hand guns from BB to pellet and this is my favorite.

handles and shoots well.

none

shoots good.

Very acurate easy to use for the price you can't go wrong P.A.is great to work with I ordered this on a Monday and got it Friday
