Long barrel with muzzle break, trigger with dual adjustments, powerful spring, break barrel for easy loading, fibre optic sights, very accurate.
Overall pistol is a bit too big for the look, the pistol grip is a bit too fat for my hand, a bit hard to cock. All the bad points are NOT too bad.
My Diana P5 Magnum (.177) arrived sooner than I expected and boy what a humungous pistol. It's certainly too small for a rifle. 18" long and compare that to my HW45 or P1 is only 11" and I thought that was big but it might need that long barrel to make it easier to cock. It shoots very well as good as my HW45 or a bit better. Power wise it's relatively equal as Beeman P1 (HW45), tested on chrono very steady 594.2 to 595.6 fps. It punctured a tomato-can right through both sides at 40ft with Beeman coated pellet 7.3gr and the most amazing is that it can group in a half inch circle consistently even with the recoil at 40ft.
