Old Diana air pistol - Info needed - 03/23/10
Hope someone here might know a little about this air gun? Maybe even a visit to memory lane
This was my Granddads, I forgot I even had it. Spotted it way back on the bottom shelf of the gun safe looking for something else. Cleaned up real nice and discovered it is .22 cal. Need to buy some pellets and see how she shoots. It feels real strong and has a bit of a kick to it!
All that I can find on it is DIANA, Made in Germany and the
big D in a circle with arrow. No model number or caliber?
I e-mailed Diana, hope they respond, cant find anything on this pistol other than a sold one on Gun broker, the seller thought it may be a Model 3?
I really need to know what is safe to use to clean/flush out the spring area of old oil/debris and what type and how to properly oil it once cleaned?
I bought some .22 cal pellets at BassPro and some crossman pellet oil, not sure if I should use the crossman oil or not?
