    The best upgrade is switching to a R-7 Macarri spring and a new Apex seal.All RWS + Diana's come bone dry lube wise from the factory! This needs to be rectified. Either velocity tar or moly and reassemble. Polish the inside of the compression tube . Use foot length piece of 3/8 hardwood dowel with a slot sawed in an inch on the end then insert a 3" piece of emery cloth folded double put the unit in a cordless drill and polish away. The cocking slot needs the attention of a small jeweler's file to remove rough edges first.........Now you have a gun worth keeping and cheaper than a R-7...........Harold

    I bought this Diana Model 24 .177 cal gun with 0.22cal version. After minor adjustment, it shots great right from the box. Good gun for the first timers and the accuracy is excellent .

    I have one of the model 24s and am quite pleased with it. Was just wondering if a stronger piston
    Spring can be purchased?

    I have a Diana model 24 in .22 caliber. The only reason i bought this was because i needed a gun to tied me over for the summer while i saved up for a model 52. I bought it thinking that it would be good for 30 yards max but i was wrong. I can get 3/4 inch groupings at 30 yards and i can hit a pop can almost every time at 60 yards, today i was shooting popcans at 75 yards and i was hitting them probably every other time, that is amazing for a gun that shoots under 500 feet per second. My gun has ...

    I just got a Diana 24 .177 cal a few months ago and I love it!! It's the most accurate air rifle I own. It basicly aims itself. From 30 yards as soon as the tip of the front sight touches the target I pull the trigger and I hit right on. I can accurately plink walnuts from about 25 yards. I haven't tried from further.

    The Diana 24 is a very smooth shooter right out of the box. It has decent power at about 600fps with crosman 7.9 gr pellets. It has enough power for small game hunting and defin ...

    I got my Diana Model 24 air rifle after realising that all those Canadian tire models (Crosman, Back Packer and such) just couldn't match in quality and accuracy.

    I'm always concerned about the plastic parts, especially in cold weather. They are made of good solid engineering plastic, but I still take extra precautions to not damage it.

    So far I've had no problems at all. It's been 3 months and I've put about 2750 individual pellets through it, trying to improve my accuracy for a local com ...

    I would gladly pay more for the Diana Model 24 .177 cal if Diana would manufacture steel sights, trigger etc., instead of using plastic parts. These parts are breakable and they cheapen what is otherwise a quality rifle. After my .22 calibre Model 24 was nicely broken in, I achieved unbelievable accuracy. At 495 fps there is good punch, very little recoil and low noise. Great for starlings and doesn't disturb the neighbours. I mounted a 6X Bushnell fixed power scope and it stays put on the base. ...

    The Diana Model shoots well, but it is not durable and it falls apart fast when I got mine 1 week after I got screws for the barrel fell out and they cost a lot to replace. I was treating the gun very well.

    I read a lot about Diana rifles and wanted one, so I got a Diana Model 24 .177 cal and I tell you, you should all get one too! It's just the greatest break barrel ever, very well made once you set the sites up its awesome. I even hit the cap on a Pepsi bottle at 10 meters without a problem and at just over 30 meters I still hit a Pepsi bottle and the pellet went right in no problems. My most difficult targets to hit next are little green army men, I am going to give these a try and see how far ...
