HNPD Diana LP8 Magnum silver

[yana]

Well not really new but new to me.. Its very rare in silver. Its actually not original. I found the silver barrel and framesides at chambersgunmakers. So its a converted black 1. Theyre impossible to find sechand. Found 1 on egun recently, but stupidly lost the bidding unfortunately. This is next best thing. Now have the complete set. Silver .177 (dont think they were made in .22)and .177 and .22 in black. Very happy with it! Gonna try it out sunday. The LP8s are very accurate.

all but for the trigger they are a fine huge pistol
now trigger can be made to be very fine with work and imagination

i wonder if most people know how big this guns are
a couple of pictures for those who wonder
grips were made by the Galbraith brothers in the states no longer available and not like the cheap ones offered in Germany now

Yeah they are BIG. My Tempest fits in twice. Too heavy for me to shoot singlehanded. So I use both hands.
Triggers are ok, workable/doable, but as I stated in another post, many have a tad of creep. And its non adjustable. But I can shoot very tiny groups when I have a good day. So for now, triggers are ok. Ive got 2 left hands too so any trigger work is not for me to do. Id have to ask my gunsmith. On my first LP8 I too had wooden grips from Galbraith. But indeed, theyre no longer made. Ebay has wooden grips. Tried those but prefer the standard grips.
