Diana Chaser Reviews

I have owned 4 Diana's.. pistols except for a combo rifle/ pistol kit... I must say ... I LOVE THE DIANAS... ESPECIALLY THE WOOD STOCKED PISTOLS... SUPER A CURATE AT 10M... I VAN PIT . 22 PELLETS ALL IN A DIMES SPACE... AT 60FT+ ITS STILL VERY ACURATE ONLY SLIGHT NORMAL ADJUSTMENTS.. ITS SMALL FRAME IS STILL QUITE COMFORTABLE... MAGAZINE HELPS.... I JUST ORDERED ANOTHER DIAMA PISTOL.. SO.. MY OLDER BROTHER AND I VAN SHOOT GRAIN EATING RATS.. OR TARGETS... BY THE WAY.. IM 72 YRS OLD... NEVER TOO 9LD TO BE YOUNG!!!

I would want threaded barrels to a vept noise suppressors

Wether it's your first air gun.. or looking for a new one YA GOTTA BUY ONE.. YOULL LOVE THEM.!! #

A lot of pistol for the money. Very well made. Nice having a left side bolt for us right handers. Trigger is OK. Good number of shots per cartridge. A solid candidate for modding. Lots of aftermarket parts made for these Diana pistols. I actually like the grip and the look. Decent accuracy.

Nothing for the price.

Size, weight, balance, trigger pull, quality of materials, ease of operation, and precise functionality. Everything about this gun says "quality", right down to the precision of adjustment to the rear sight! The trigger is a joy to use out of the box; light with clearly defined stages and clean break. Accuracy is superb and consistent! Loading/unloading CO2 cartridges is simple, precise, and with no waste of gas. I got 52 shots from one cartridge shooting pellets ranging from 5.25gr - 8.64gr. The left-hand bolt works smoothly and precisely, and can easily be de-cocked.

Would be nice if the threaded muzzle end was a standard 1/2 x 20 instead of the M10 x 1.00; that would leave far more options for a suppressor.

This gun comes with a single-shot tray, but NOT a magazine! So if you want/need a mag, that will add significantly to the overall cost of the gun. That said, the mags are metal (except for the clear cover) and work well for me. I also have not noticed any degradation in accuracy using a magazine. The gun also comes with a nice little carry case with cut-out foam to secure the gun, a tin of pellets, two magazines, and what looks to be room for a suppressor; however, the latter must be for one from Diana. I purchased a suppressor from Buck-rail which works superbly on this gun, but it's too big to fit in the foam cut-out. Also, If you keep the suppressor mounted on the gun (as I will do), and/or you mount an optic on the gun (even a small reflex), then it makes the case unusable. The case is a "nice touch", but I'd rather the gun come with a magazine instead of the case, and put the cost of the magazine towards a more accommodating case. Just my 2 cents :)

Accurate - Liked feel - Good number of shots per air cylinder.

There is a significant problem with barrel seals falling out. I was lucky to find the smaller seal a few times on the ground, but I ran out of luck and could not find a replacement part. The first time the larger seal fell out, it was stretched out of shape for some reason. It must have gotten pulled by the cock pin. I can't find replacement parts without buying a bunch of other parts. It is too expensive to make up for a poor design plan.

This is my first CO2 airgun. My other airguns are springer rifles so I have nothing to compare this pistol to. It is inexpensive, seems to be made well, is accurate for what it is. I have the .22 caliber and it shoots low even with a full cartridge at 10 yards. The front sight is a plastic and I can easily file it down to get POA/POI where I want it with the pellet that groups the best. Until then I shoot at a closer range, or stick more sight post up through the rear sight. The .177 might have a better POA/POI. Looks like I get 40 consistent shots before the CO2 starts getting low and another 10 useable shots being 50 total. The cartridge will loose air overnight so I only install a cartridge when I have time to shoot 40-50 shots. The trigger is very good and the pistol is a good trainer for shooting a firearm handgun except for recoil control of course.

I bought an aftermarket suppressor.

Nice grip easy to load i got 45 shots before i saw any lack of power.

I did not like the 11mm mount.

It is loud for a small gun. It's louder than my Diana 48

Accurate, good power and just a fun gun to shoot.

Nothing

Good value

Very Accurate, great price, I get about 35 shots per Co2 cartridge. The gun shoots better than I can.

All good.

Missing seal kit, thanks to the Pyramyd support team, they are on their way to my house. Thanks.

Very accurate nice soft trigger let’s you shoot very smoothly

Nothing

Comes with a pretty nice case xtra bonus great buy for the buck

The Chaser has a great trigger. Hard to find at this price point. And it's adjustable. Very accurate rifle/pistol. Fit and finish is excellent. Options everywhere if you look hard enough. It comes with a vinyl case that's OK but has limited use. Seems to like all pellets I've tried. The rifle configuration and how it assembles is neat. Top engineering design. This is a fantastic price on a gun of this quality. Did I mention the excellent trigger!

I like it the way it is which is why I bought it.

The Chaser and the Airbug are my two favorite shooters now, and I have a few nice guns for comparisons. The Chaser has a personality all its own in the airgun world. The conversion feature from pistol to rifle is really neat and well done. Crosman's is good, but this is better in my opinion. The Chaser has a great trigger. 90% of the reviews I read don't mention the trigger. They should because it's the most important part of the gun that gives you accuracy consistency. A trigger you can 'squeeze' and not 'pull' if key. These guns have it. Flexibility is a great option. Type of pellet used with the rifle--mine is a .22--makes it a good pest control gun. It's also a great target shooter. I'm an old guy and this gun makes me look good. One more thing. This is assembled in China and designed in Germany. Both contries did a great job.

the ease of operation, the accuracy was good, in general a great looking pistol.

I would put a more ergonomic grip on the pistol, I would also include the multi shot mag in the package.

It is a great value for the price.

Not much!

I've had it with PA. NO customer service, they blow you off to bluelineglobal...good luck with that. The ChasirvI got works with pistol barrel only. Rifle barrel is a no go. Paid extra for service shots and they only tested the pistol barrel, not rifle barrel. I am doing the only thing I can do, take my money some place else.

Buy at your own risk!

Once the Chaser is broken in it is super accurate. Nice feel, great gun. I wouod recommend it for people who practice for pistol shooting competitions. I use it to paractice at home for contests with a Smith and Wesson Model 41. It is close enough and can be a great tool at 20 yards.

I do no have any complaints

It took about 200 shots to break in. But that doesn't take long.

Overall fit, feel, and features were very good.

I was excited to get this until I cleaned the bore. It looked like it had been swabbed with salt water when it left the factory. I cleaned it for two weeks. It was rusted so bad the bore is pitted. Hopefully I can find a replacement barrel somewhere and I'll keep this one for shooting darts.

Do not buy anything Diana unless you can personally inspect it first.

Powerful, groups well.

The sights are way off. Can not adjust onto group at 10 yards. Barrel is threaded, but no silencer available that I have seen.

The accuracy, the smoothness of the trigger and the way it feels while 10 meter target shooting in standing position. This pistol just feels good.

The bolt is a little cheesey but still better than most. I would at least make it slide better out of the box.

This is the best shooting pistol there is under $100 anywhere. This is only my opinion but I've been shooting for over 50 years and for the price you can not beat it!!

First of all this is my new favorite plinker pistol and believe it or not it's as accurate as my 2300T. The power is really cool and I love the sound it makes.

The bolt seems a little flimsy and it sticks once in awhile but not that bad.

This pistol just caught my eye and I went with my gut instinct and it was a great decision. The grips are not that bad, I actually like the feel.

Very accurate pistol. I get about 40+ shoots per CO2 cartridge.

Pyramyd Air should ship a magazine with this pistol.

I bought some high capacity magazines from Carm that are great. I also bought the right hand breech since I shoot left handed (Pyramyd does't carry this anymore but I thing the right hand Stormrider breech will work). Also I put a red dot on the pistol to improve accuracy.

Great value for the money , very accurate, nice case included. Added a red dot scope and it's dead on at 20 yds !

A barrel band support included with gun Multiple shot magazine included with gun not as add ons

Very accurate out of box

Maybe different grip options

Good value for price
