*WINCHESTER MODEL 1892 LEVER ACTION RIFLE.

SN 468149. Cal. 25-20. Standard grade rifle with 24-1/4″ oct bbl, full magazine, slightly altered front sight with screw and semi-buckhorn rear sight. Mounted with uncheckered straight grain American walnut with straight stock & crescent buttplate. This rifle was made in about 1908 when a rifle was almost a necessity in most areas of the U.S. These small bore rifles were not really suitable for big game and were generally considered ladies’ or boys’ rifles. As such they usually saw hard service with very little maintenance and are seldom found today with high orig finish. CONDITION: Very good. Bbl retains about 80% restored blue and the magazine tube about 90%; receiver retains about 80% restored blue and the lever & hammer are gray/brown patina; buttplate is a dark patina. Stock has a small broken sliver at left side of top tang and another at right side bottom tang, otherwise wood is sound and retains a restored finish. Mechanics are fine, strong dark bore. 4-55397 JR357 (1,500-2,500) – Lot 1244
