Description
When you shoot the new N-TEC gas-piston powerplant and see how much smoother it is than the coiled metal mainsprings in your other air rifles, you'll start shooting this gun more and others a lot less. Besides the excellent shooting characteristics inherent in a gas-piston powerplant, your N-TEC rifle comes with the T06 trigger. It's adjusts for what YOU want in a trigger instead of the other way around. Because the Luxus is an upgraded gun, it has a beautifully checkered walnut stock and an 18-karat gold-plated trigger blade. Beautiful. . . inside and out.
But there's no sense in owning a beautiful air gun unless it also hits its mark. And the Diana guns do that, too. Known for nailing your targets, Diana air rifles deliver the goods downrange.

2 of 2 Diana 340 N-TEC Luxus Air Rifle Reviews
The stock fit is great. The typical American straight pull, a la the Winchester 70, can not hold a candle to the ergos of a euro hogback. The walnut is decent, not spectacular, but some BLO really brings out what's there. The inletting and butt plate fit are excellent. Minelli does great work. Firing behavior is typical gas ram -- quick, snappy. If you like rams, you'll like this. Once you get it adjusted, the N-Tec adapted T06 is a fine trigger. After a tear down, deburr, and rebuild, the cocking cycle was very nice. Again, typical gas ram. The sights are metal, front accepts inserts. Power is good -- running in the mid 14 foot pound range with medium weight pellets. Average was 1,194 fps with lead free 4.7 grainer, so it exceeds the 1,090 marketing claim -- nominally.
Things I Would Have ChangedI had to replace the stock 1st stage screw with a longer one to get to a crisp 2nd stage break. The cocking cycle quickly developed a very, very bad grind. I tore it down and found finely powdered metal everywhere. The cocking slot was the culprit; very rough and sharp -- it had cut up the piston seal edge, too, which I replaced. Diana needs to pay some attention, here. The innards were incredibly dry; no lubricant. I'm not clear on the thought behind that. The cocking arm rattles some. Not a huge deal, but engineering it out would not be a huge deal, either.
What Others Should KnowI can work on my own guns, so none of the above was a show stopper -- for me. And I may just have gotten the one klunker; the Diana 34, which is the basis for this gun, has a good rep.
But -- be prepared -- you may have the same issues, and, if you can't do the work, you're in for a return.
Overall -- believe it or not -- I'm pleased. Now that it's all fixed up -- nice piece. Great looking, smooth cocking, comfortable fit, nice shot cycle, powerful without being overly so.
I do wish Diana would up the QC, initiate a de-burring step -- and buy some grease!

Hard to know where to start. Fit and finish is excellent. Stock is beautiful. Rifle is very well balanced and fits well. Trigger has very light take up then a definite stop just before let off. No creep at all, just a crisp break.
Things I Would Have ChangedI have not found anything that I would change so far. I got the 10 for 10 and the action seems to be properly lubricated, and not over tightened.
