I found this little 92 at my second POMONA SHOW in Nov of 94. I am still not sure if I have a jewel or redone-refurbished piece. I am sure, that it is sttill one of my favorites. Your opinions will be welcome. Serial #763779 which dates the receiver to 1914 and the barrel has a ’31 date. Thanks, RDB

Maybe it was rebarreled at the factory (no mail-order brl mark), but that doesn’t make it a transfreak.

Rodger,
Due to the lack of factory records, almost anything is possible. That stated, most potential buyers will simply look at it as a rebarreled Model 1892.

Thanks for your input. I thought that might be the case. Not a big deal. I forgot to mention that, the forend wood, on the ridge, where it fits into and against the receiver, is stamped “EX. LT.”. It is so lightly stamped that I was unable to get it photographed. The rifle could pass as a Model 53 solid frame with a rifle butt. I may classify it as a “One of a kind”!
