These ’92’s aren’t fancy but they are nice
This is the ’92 portion of the display I’m building; the history of Winchester’s lever guns in standard configuration ,carbine, rifle and musket, pre 1900. It has been a challenge however I’ve built more difficult collections.

Beautiful 92’s! How many 1892 muskets are known to exist? Were they predominantly shipped to a particular country or military like the 1895 muskets?
Henry – I have to say when I clicked on the title of, “working” 1892’s I expected something different. I can’t see that these rifles have been worked much at all 
Well Steve I didn’t say they were worked to hard but they are in standard order configuration like what one would have bought off the gun rack at the local hardware store

I can hardly wait until the Ontario gun-shows start up again so that I can see this stuff up close in person.
Good morning Henry,
Can I get an image of the barrel address stamp on SN 235181? It is in the transition period from Style 2 to 3 for the 1892’s. Did you purchase that gun from RIA in Dec 2010? That is the last time I saw it.

Michael, since you posted. How many deluxe 1892’s in the configuration like the one posted on Guns International have you documented?

I too am interested in this information. And how many semi-deluxe 1892s do you have? In all chamberings?

A man can never have too many WINCHESTERS...
Michael No I didn’t buy that gun from Rock Is. I bought it in a collection of guns here in Ontario last Year. I will get You some pics tomorrow

Guys,
It’s hunting season and time to chase fish with fly rods!!! Give me a few days and I will see what I can dredge out of my data. I do not have deluxe vs semi deluxe designations in my spreadsheet so it will take some looking and deciphering.

Mike I am building a display of all the pre 1900 Winchester lever guns in standard carbine, rifle and musket configuration. I now have everything but an 1886 musket and a 1894 musket.
