Ran into a like new RWS Diana 6GS at a shop in Boise, ID over the weekend. Wasn't even supposed to have been there. Pistol looks like new with a 1985 date code and optic sight. Shop said it chronograph at 370.
Shoots true!! For just under 2bills.

Really good find! At 370 fps., with a 7 gr. pellet, it’s shooting slow. The pistol should be shooting around 450 fps. You’ll eventually have to replace the piston and breech seals. If the breech o-ring seal is completely flat, it does affect velocity.

I enjoy shooting my old school RWS Diana 5G and 5G magnum spring air pistols, they keep on ticking after all these years with little maintenance.
