Description:

The Model 1892 was a prized arm on the western frontier due to its firepower in a small package, and that popularity continued well into the early 20th century in a west that was far from tamed. This example was manufactured in 1919 with standard markings including Winchester factory oval proofs on the barrel and receiver at the breech. Fitted with square base pinned blade front and folding ladder rear sights, and a staple and saddle ring on the left of the receiver. Mounted with a smooth forearm and straight grip stock with a carbine buttplate.

Rating Definition:

Fine, retains 40% plus of the original blue finish with the balance having thinned to mostly a smooth grey patina, having the look of a gun that protected many a cattle herd from varmints. The wood is very good with a short minor crack in the forearm, and numerous scattered minor handling marks, typical of use. Mechanically excellent.
