Spotted by Ewoodie, a respected user from www.luchtbuks.net:

A Diana/RWS PCP, the Elite:

http://www.airgunshooting.co.uk/videos-details.aspx?id=137

It's to be produced by Falcon, which is a British company. All in all probably a good rifle if it's made by Falcon, but it's not German and therefore in my opinion a bit redundant. I really hoped a bit for an HW100 Killer. Neutral I wonder what the price is gonna be, since that will probably be what will make it different from other rifles.

We'll see where the ship will strand. Mr. Green

Interesting, I thought all guns w/the RWS/Diana logo were made by Diana.

I guess not anymore.

Most Diana parts are made in China, but finished in Germany.

Let us know when you hear any updates on this...I'm in the market for a PCP and would be interested in how this one rates. Any idea if it is in the Mrod (~30fpe) or the Evanix/Condor (~55fpe) power range?

If it shot 2 full magazines (16-20 shots) at a full 30fpe... I would be happy.

I'd expect it to shoot at least 5/8" at 50 yards.

I am also in the market for a first PCP. Looks like a great rifle. Love the changeable bolt, since I don't have a preference to either hand when shooting. Might help to hone my right handed abilities though.
