It is marked as a Star M Brand "Diana" on top of the barrel over the trigger area and there is also some Japanese writing about midway on the barrel, also on top. Is anyone familiar with this air rifle? It's age, caliber, etc.?   Posted: Wed Jul 02, 2008 4:19 am broommaster2000 Moderator Joined: 10 Mar 2007 Posts: 5714 Location: City of Groningen, Groningen, The Netherlands Pictures would help! Diana is a German brand though, so I'm pretty much wondering what kind of thing it is. _________________ BIG GAP   Posted: Fri Jul 04, 2008 10:25 am gordo New Member Joined: 01 Jul 2008 Posts: 2 Location: milwaukee, wi Had a down load problem with the camera/computer. As soon as I get that straight I'll send pics. I think the "Diana" is a model not a brand name. Seems Star M Brand is the brand name.   Posted: Fri Jul 04, 2008 11:44 am AirGunEric Site Admin Joined: 20 Jan 2007 Posts: 6908 Location: "Out There" Please post pictures when you can. "Star" was a company that made regular firearms- many, if not all of their models had an "M" as part of their name/designation. It seems doubtful they made their own airgun, and companies like Diana have historically sold their guns to other companies to sell with their own name put on them. So- you do likely have a Diana of some sort... _________________ ` I'd say "I care." But I'd be lying.
