    Diana 54 unknown screw

    Update #1 - You. Guys. Rock. I had some time to take the D54 out today and shoot a little bit since my apprehension level was reduced significantly due to the responses that this unknown screw wasn't part of the trigger group and most probably an external screw filling a threaded void to mount a...

    Diana 54 unknown screw

    I just went over the gun and tried to find a place to put that peep sight cover screw. NoJoy. lol But that was a GREAT idea!

    Diana 54 unknown screw

    OK, I think this has been a great mental exercise for everyone and there's some good logic and fact behind this analysis.... I think we're all on board the subject screw is NOT a scope stop screw. Rather, it's a screw to plug a hole in the rail for a peep sight. And I think the pictures...

    Diana 54 unknown screw

    OK, hopefully here's a couple images of what my setup is..... The scope base is really far back on the rail so there's little opportunity for that screw to have been in place. Two shots to show the clearance issue. So this would lead me to believe the screw wasn't there installed in that...

    Diana 54 unknown screw

    I'm really thinking this is what we're all trying to figure out. That screw looks identical to mine. And there's some buggered threads on it along with a worn spot on the head side. Based on the picture above, that would make sense. A prior owner used that plug hole as a scope stop, the...

    Diana 54 unknown screw

    I'm really leaning towards this thought at the moment. I'm wondering with my rings on that rail and the ring base so far back if this screw wasn't taped or somehow affixed on the gun and I didn't notice it. But I've not found any tape! Look below for a few more images of my rings/base/rail...

    Diana 54 unknown screw

    Thank you. No, I've not removed the scope from the rail at this point. Just looking at the rail, there's no way that screw could have been in place there. Down below a post or two from here is FixedFlingers image. That gives you an idea of the size of the screw in addition to the ones I...

    Diana 54 unknown screw

    Thx for the input... This had been suggested on another forum. I'd tend to agree with it other than the pic in my original post and I just can't fathom how if this screw were under the scope rail base, how in the world it 1)ever was there due to it's height, and 2) how it ever came out. That...

    Diana 54 unknown screw

    Hi all! First post here on the recommendation from a friend who happens to be a member here and we both moderate another forum together. I recently acquired a Diana 54 Air King T05 in .177. I'm new to this particular model knowing zero about it other than the price was right for some fun -...
