Advantages of the Diana Bandit 5.5 mm PCP pistol:
The Diana PCP Bandit 5.5 mm features a classic beech wood stock, a rifled steel barrel, mechanical aiming devices, and an 11 mm rail for mounting an optical device. The sporting character of the airgun is emphasized by an ergonomic match grip with stippling and finger grooves. Thanks to this design, the airgun provides a stable grip when shooting with one hand.
The Diana Bandit 5.5 mm PCP pistol is powered by compressed air stored in a 50 cc aluminum cylinder mounted under the barrel. From a cylinder filled to the maximum pressure of 200 bar, approximately 15 shots can be fired with an initial velocity of up to 200 m/s. The integrated pressure gauge allows easy monitoring of the pressure in the cylinder so the user can quickly assess the available air reserve. The filling port is protected from dirt by a rotating aluminum cover. The PCP gas system means the airgun produces no recoil after firing, which improves comfort and shooting precision.
The pistol uses a rifled barrel with a length of 229 mm, which significantly affects accuracy and shot consistency. At the end of the barrel there is a metal moderator that reduces the sound of the shot and also acts as a counterweight to the massive grip. Safety is ensured by a cross‑bolt safety located above the trigger within finger reach.
The Diana Bandit 5.5 mm can be powered by a 7‑shot rotary magazine or a removable single‑shot tray. Thanks to this functionality, the pistol can be used for recreational shooting as well as for sport shooting (meeting sport shooting requirements). The pellet is loaded into the chamber using a bolt‑action mechanism operated with an enlarged metal lever. The Diana Bandit 4.5 mm PCP pistol features an adjustable DIT trigger mechanism. The trigger has a light pull, is easy to feel and predictable, which significantly improves shooting precision and consistency.
The pistol is equipped as standard with mechanical aiming devices in the form of a fixed front sight and a micrometer rear sight adjustable in two planes. If you want to try shooting at longer distances, you can mount a selected optical device on the 11 mm top rail.
