Description:
*** ( sale pending - Thomas ) *** This is a Winchester Model 1892, saddle ring carbine with a button magazine and 20" barrel. It is chambered for the .44 WCF ( 44-40 ) and has an excellent, shiny, sharp clean bore. This carbine was carried much more than fired. This is a very interesting carbine - besides being a much better than average SRC, it has the property stamps of the American Express Company, no doubt a guard gun. The stampings are as old as the rifle, professionally applied, everything - ( condition, carry wear, bore condition) adds up to this being an AM. EX. gun. The American Express Co. has a very interesting history dating back at least as far as the Civil war, protecting shipments by wagon, train, etc. This rifle was made approx. 1912 according to the Winchester Collectors site. American Express. quit guarding around the WW1 era. The few AM. EX. guns I have seen were carbines in .44 WCF or short shotguns. The action on this gun is crisp, positive and cycles ammo perfectly. It shows little signs of being shot - but was definitely a favorite to carry. There is typical carry wear and blueing loss to the receiver, the barrel retains much more original blue. The wood has numerous small dings and impressions, a couple of noticeable wormy spots to the right wrist area. It looks like the wood has an old coat of varnish added. Overall a great little carbine.
