Description:
General Specs: Winchester, Year 1917, 25-20WCF, 7lbs. 4oz., LOP 12 7/8"
Serial Number: 841053
The Winchester Model 1892 is John Browning’s design that closely mirrored the venerable 1886 action but for the smaller handgun calibers that were made popular by Winchester. Initially made in.32 W.C.F (.32-20), .38 W.C.F. (.38-40), and .44 W.C.F (.44-40). Winchester also added the .25 W.C.F. (.25-20) to the Model 1892 list of calibers in 1895. This handy little Model 1892 Winchester, sn841053 was built in 1917 as a Standard rifle, 24” round barrel, full length magazine, crescent steel butt, and steel nose cap. This gun has been well cared for in its 106 years in existence, retaining 98% factory barrel blue, about 94% action blue, and the wood is in excellent condition with only a few notable marks. THE MOST IMPRESSIVE THING WITH THE M1892 IS THE BORE…MIRROR SHINY, SHARP AS NEW RIFLING, RATING AT LEAST A 9.5 OUT OF 10! Most riflemen know that on an older rifle, the condition of the bore is what makes one rifle worth buying and another not worth having. Excellent bores shoot well. The action functions to perfection, all the screws are in excellent shape, the wood to metal fit is superb, and nothing needs to be done to this gun except take her out plinking or taking game. All parts are original to the gun, including the sights. The ammunition is readily available for this rifle and in the right hands she is good for whitetail sized game. The .25-20 in the Winchester rifle was a notably accurate round and very adequate for varmints as well. This rifle is marked on the top tang “Model 1892” and was built just before that stamping changed to the abbreviated “Model 92”. A very worthy Winchester for your collection, affordably priced, and a gun you can have some fun taking to the woods on occasion. Thanks for looking!
