Diana Model 6 Cutaway
Posted: Sat Mar 10, 2018 10:48 pm
Hi there,
I thought you guys might be interested in a cutaway Model 6 I recently bought online from Germany.
It was a bit of a gamble as the picture on the auction site was a bit blurry and the description was pretty vague but I’m really happy with it.
You can cock and fire it and the GISS system is a marvellous mechanism to see in action. By lucky chance a cutaway of the HW70 came up a few days later so I got that too as a comparison.
The seller said he got it direct from Diana. I’ve contacted them to see if they can shed any light on it but it’s been very professionally done, unlike the HW70 which is obviously an enthusiast’s Home project.
I think I’ll avoid firing it too much if I can resist.
Do you see many of these?

I’ll do a YouTube film of it in action and post the link.
Cheers,
Matt.
