Handles well. easy to cock. Number of shots per CO2 cartridge is as advertized.

The first magazine malfunctioned and Pyramid replaced it. The new mag works as it should. The sear adjustment screw is very loose in the threaded hole in the trigger. Adjustment is require every 30-40 shots. The screw issue is still without resolution.

Easy to load and very accurate.

Gorgeous pistol, beautifully finished. Precision designed and manufactured. Nicely balanced and the grip fits my hand like a glove. At 525 fps (.177), it's plenty powerful. German-designed, albeit assembled in China. Very accurate. Bolt and cocking mechanisms are solid, although a little notchy. Inserting and removing cartridges is a breeze.

The magazine. When it works, it's great, but should it jam, it's a big problem. If you don't get a pellet fully into the chamber and then pull the bolt back for another try, the magazine can advance to the next cylinder. So you either have to try to force two pellets into the chamber or worse, if that was the last round, the magazine will block the bolt from closing. And the magazine can't be removed since there's a pellet partway in the magazine and partway in the chamber. You can't back the pellet out with a barrel rod since the magazine will block it. The only solution is to brute-force the magazine out, sheering the pellet. So make sure the pellet gets all the way into the chamber on every shot, even if you have to force the bolt closed, and NEVER pull the bolt back until the pellet is fully chambered and shot.

It's a great pistol. Unfortunately, the manual's not very clear, but there are Youtubes. The rear sight needed a slight adjustment, which was easily done. It's tempting to overtighten the cartridge tube cap, but when fully seated, mine shows an 1/8" gap from being fully closed. And the "strengthening rod" isn't for tightening, just for loosening. The hole in the cartridge tube is for venting residual gas, so point it away when unscrewing the cap. And lastly, be careful if using the magazine (see "Things I would change...").

I have all three versions on the Chaser ( .177, .22 & Airbug) . These airguns for the money are the best I have found and for outdistance MUCH more expensive guns.

Nothing, gun is very well thought out. Maybe a little too loud.

Great for about any air gun activity. FIVE STAR ON ALL THREE.

Fun to shoot , fairly accurate .

Iron sights are difficult to see in most lighting conditions. Magazine jams and is fairly useless .

Ok for the money , magazines are expensive and mine jammed all the time. As a single shot its pretty accurate and fun to plink with.

Well finished, mine wooden stock was so ugly! out of balanced, without even a co2, plastic is lighter n cheaper same thing Check out with a rifle barrel, you get 2, sorta, with silencer.

look around

Accurate right out of the box!

Well made, very accurite and well worth the price.

The rear sight blade needs to be flat black to cut down on glare.

Buy one before their out of stock.

As soon as I had it out of the box I was really impressed with the looks, feel and craftsmanship.

Great gun. Took 10 months of waiting to get it but in the end I'm very happy with it. Right out of the box I was shooting nice groups. I'm happy with the fit and finish.

The only issue I had was the CO2 tube had a light coating of rust inside and the cartridge didn't slide easily. I oiled it up and cleaned it out and it's perfect now. I would warn people to check there's before they put a cartridge down the tube because it will be hard to remove and may not line up properly.

I feel for the money this is a great pistol and perfect for target shooting in the garage.

Feel/balance, accuracy and price

Better instructions on loading the 1st pellet in the magazine.

Magazine doesn't seem to work - won't advance to next pellet.

Other than having to wait 6+months for my order, the Diana Airbug after sampling a few shots to zero it in to my shooting abilities, i found it be an exceptional shooter. It was easy to load, ergonomically fit and between 50 and 60 shots per gas load.

Nothing

The Diana Airbug CO2 pistol is a wonderfully accurate pellet pistol. I was shooting bullseye groups three quarters of an inch in diameter right out of the box with no adjustments to the sights! Granted, it was only 5 meters (about 18 ft), but with a two handed hold in the standing position. Hands down, the most accurate pellet pistol I own. Definately a bargain for a superbly accurate CO2 pistol. If you are looking for a economical entry into target shooting, you should have this on your short list.

Pellet magazine design makes loading the magazine a bit awkward. A more robust redesign would be welcome.

Pellet magazine is a bit cumbersome to load (.177 version) for even medium sized man hands. It has not broken, but it looks and feels like it might wear out quickly.
