Collector Notes:
This El Tigre represents one of the finer surviving examples of Spanish Winchester Model 1892 copies.
Its originality, bright bore, and complete configuration significantly enhance its collector appeal. No
restoration is recommended beyond standard preservation: light oil film for metal surfaces and dry
storage for the stock.
These were manufactured from 1915-1938, with production reportedly significantly disrupted during World War I, while Spanish arms manufacturers cranked out handguns for military contracts by the thousands. These carbines were sold commercially in Spain, with many being utilized by police forces, and many were shipped to South America to satisfy a growing market. The standard Garate Anitua address on top of the barrel along with the \"CAL. 44 L\" caliber marking, meaning \"44 Largo\", the Spanish name for .44-40 W.C.F. The tiger trademark is on the left side of the frame and the serial number is on the bottom. The three-line model marking is on the upper tang. It is fitted with a blade front sight, folding ladder rear sight, saddle ring on the left of the receiver, and sling swivels on the lower barrel band and buttstock. It is mounted with a very finely figured, smooth forearm and straight grip stock with a trapdoor steel buttplate.
