Is the 3400 a springer or gas ram or either?I guess the 3500 is a 350 clone?
Left over parts from the Parrus/Terrus line so: German parts, stocks from Italy, assembled in the US. They are not, never were and have nothing to do with Diana but the guess is RWS wanted you to think so hence the 3400 model designation.
...I think if the price dropped another 50-70 bucks, I'd bite.
I've got a Terrus and Purrus, both .177 and wood. Those are not Rekord triggers. What's the 3400 trigger like?
... The 3400 is the Walther trigger/Walther safety like your Terrus/Parrus from both reading on the forums and looking at the pictures. I guess that means it's trigger is plastic too?
For those interested. The .177 is now down to 149.99 and the .22 is sold out. https://www.airgunsofarizona.com/spring-piston/rws-3400-air-rifle/
