*WINCHESTER MODEL 92 LEVER ACTION RIFLE.

SN 967311. Cal. 32 WCF (32-20). Late standard grade rifle with 24-1/4″ oct bbl, full magazine, standard front sight with screw and semi-buckhorn rear sight with patent date and fine adjustment screw. Mounted with uncheckered straight grain American walnut and straight stock with crescent buttplate. These late production small caliber 92s are rarely ever found with high orig finish. They were not considered serious hunting rifles and usually were relegated to ladies for garden pest guns or to boys as training rifles. As such they usually saw very hard service with little or no maintenance. Accompanied by the copy of Mr. Yearout’s inventory card which shows that he purchased this rifle from Charles Boss of Twin Falls, ID in Oct. 1964. PROVENANCE: Estate Collection of Lewis & Leyton Yearout. CONDITION: Extremely fine plus with only a couple small scratches on the receiver and one tiny touched up spot on bottom left edge of receiver. Wood is near perfect with only a couple of very tiny unnoticeable flaws. Mechanics are crisp; action & bore are still filled with factory grease. By all appearances this rifle is new and unfired. 4-53902 (6,000-8,000) – Lot 2095
