Highlights
Quality
Using it with the open sight and that is decent also.
Quiet with the right ammo, but light pellets give that sonic boom.
The scope comes with the rifle, is well-matched to it, and it sits right above the top of the barrel with much less parallax offset.
Packaging/appearance
If you hit a squirrel in the chest it drops instantly on the first shot, right out of the tree.
Competitiveness
And the umarex costs about half what a new diana in the same caliber and fps range would cost.
