Most air rifles under the firearm limit here in Canada that we sell are typically lower cost Chinese manufactured models. They can be great little plinkers and will usually fit anyones budget but quality and overall performance is something to consider when selecting one.
Diana's 240 Classic is a German made breakbarrel rifle available in .22 (5.5mm) calibre. A nice straight designed wood stock allows for both right and left hand shooters and weighing only 5.8 lbs and measuring 41" from tip of barrel to buttstock makes it a perfect fit for anyone.
Very easy cocking effort of the spring piston means you will run out of pellets before your arm does.
The rifle is equipped with fiber optic front and rear sights. The all metal micrometer rear sight is adjustable for both windage and elevation and is noticeably sharper than any other 'plastic' open sights on the market.
Diana is also known for their T05 trigger system which is found in almost all of their products and the 240 is no exception. This crisp trigger is far superior to any setup you will find at this price and is adjustable for the individual.
The safety is automatic and is engaged once the rifle is cocked and is located at the back of the receiver.
Fresh out of the box this rifle has a clean breech including the seal and locking detent.
11mm Dovetail rail allows for optics to be mounted.

You can also expect exceptional accuracy from rifled barrel as well.
One reason we recommend the larger .22 calibre to customers is its ability to effectively take game and eliminate pests. This Grackle in the above picture was a easy target at 19 yards.
The small size and hitting power from the .22 240 is perfect for introducing youth to shooting and hunting.
