Diana Bandit

Easy to take apart and work on. Easy to most.

Pros
Light, powerful, Huma has a regulator for it and I think that making it a little more powerful will be easy.

Cons
I am all thumbs and have wide hands. The grip is to fat and needs ground down.

Fine gun. Well worth the $$$$$. Accurate as all get out. Great deal!

Pros
Feels good in your hand

Cons
Handle a smite large.

At this price, I didn't expect too much in the area of quality or function. I dived in and purchased one in .22, and one in .177. Both came in padded cases, with additional items, needed to use these guns. To say that I was impressed would be a gross understatement. Neither gun had any blemishes are machine marks of any kind on them. Better yet, both guns functioned perfectly and are very accurate. Both are easily powerful enough to take small game at moderate ranges. I've made a lot of purchases in my life, and of these two guns, I believe I made tremendous buys. I am new to this sport, but will hopefully have many years of enjoyment shooting these guns. In my opinion, money spent on these guns would be a great value!

Pros
overall weight accuracy noise level carrying cases included

Cons
Grip: the grips are huge blocks of wood, and unless you have XL hands like mine, you may have trouble making appropriate trigger contact. Not a big issue, but I think the fill ports should be covered. As such, I made my own out of some rubber rings.

The first one I received had a loose barrel, and barrel was dropping down and touching the air cylinder. I returned it for exchange. The second replacement pistol also had a slightly loose barrel as well. After tightening the 3 Allen screws on the breach, the barrel was tight and didn't have any droop. Diana needs to have better assembly quality control. The second pistol shoots fine. One last note. Make sure to clean the barrel before you fire it. Very dirty!!

I bought the air pistol a few months back and finally got to test it properly. I had a problem with the open sites they ran out of adjustment which made the gun shoot low. This was not a problem for me due to my age I mounted a Center point 2X20 pistol scope with high rings so the magazine would not have an issue loading. The medium rings my work I didn't try them. This .22 cal pistol is a tack driver using JSB 14.35 Exact Jumbo Express. Right out of the box with out cleaning the barrel it put pellet on pellet. The trigger is a little stiff but as I have broken it in it's become smother. I haven't adjusted it yet but the trigger pull is about medium in weight. The moderator for the .22 works great which brings the sound level down to very back yard friendly. At 25 yards it has more then enough power to take out small game and birds. The mussel energy is at 12 foot pounds using the 14.35 pellets. I am getting about 40 shots per fill. Great price for what you are getting.

Pros
Tack Driver, Very quiet, 40 shots per fill.

Cons
A plug cover, or dust cover would be nice for the prob hole.

I feel Like I stole this Airgun for the price. It is a tack driving, POWERFUL Airgun in a target pistol configuration. The pistol grip is ergonomically based in, waiting for its owner to customize the wood for a perfect fit. I get 30 shots per fill. That's 4+ 7 shot magazines per fill! Who can't hunt with 30 shots? I am designing and building a shoulder stock for it.

Pros
read above

Cons
Come on Crosman/Benjamin. This airgun platform from China needs to be reckoned with.

This Gun is accurate, lightweight, and is capable of multiple shots. I have .22 cal. and only tried it at 25 yards, so will have to update later after trying it out at longer distances. Being a mostly scoped shooter and not really liking open sights, i would have to say that most Hand guns are better off left with open sights, since they have limited range capabilities. But there are exceptions. I do not see where you can add scope mounts on this Gun, but it is just fine the way that it is.

Pros
Light weight, Quiet, Multiple shots, Accurate, and affordable.

Cons
None.
