Want to buy a Diana Model 34 clone.

[Rob Hawkins]

I bought a Diana Model 34 with a T01 trigger knowing the rifle didn't work.
I found the piston rod broken off.
I tried to find a new or used T01 piston but no luck.
So, I want to try a Diana 34 clone with a T05 trigger clone and try to use that piston and trigger in this Diana.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Mike Melick at Flying Dragon Air Rifles may have the Chinese parts you are looking for at a very fair price, and he probably can give good advice regarding part interchangeability.

Check with Mike Melick at Flying Dragon Air Rifles.  He may be able to sell you the parts you need.  If you get the trigger group from him have him do the second screw mod while he's got it.  It adds an adjustable first stage.  You could also check prices for a Diana T06 piston and trigger group at Chambers Airgun Spares in the UK.  A third option would be to try for parts at Umarex USA.  They used to be the US warranty station for Diana and they may still have some parts available.  I suspect if you want a Diana T06 piston and trigger group it will run you about $100, though.o  In any case don't throw away the T01 parts, they're in short supply.

Email sent.
I'd like to have the T01 setup (my first choice) but I can tune the T05. T06 last option. I never liked that trigger.
I tried all known sources for the T01 piston. As usual, everybody tried to help. I got several phone numbers too. Dead end.
Thanks,
Rob

By the way to be clear...
I'm looking for a CLONE piston and trigger. Xisico/BAM/etc
If I've read correctly, these parts will drop in to a Diana Model 34/36.
I'm not sure which Xisico/BAM rifle is the clone to the Model 34.
