This Winchester Model 1892 was manufactured in 1917 and restored by our shop in 2017. Designed by John Moses Browning, the Model 1892 was Winchester’s lighter, stronger successor to the Model 1873, built around the same class of pistol cartridges that had long made the earlier lever guns so useful.

This example retains its original wood and parts and was restored to original specification. It has a 20-inch round barrel, giving it the familiar, handy profile associated with short-barreled Model 1892s. The balance is quick and practical, which is part of what made these rifles so useful well into the early 20th century.

The finishes were restored in keeping with the period. The lever and hammer are color case hardened. The receiver, forend cap, crescent buttplate, and small parts are charcoal blued. The barrel and full-length magazine tube are rust blued.

The original wood was restored as part of the 2017 work and finished with a hand-rubbed oil finish, keeping with the rifle’s period appearance while preserving its original stock and forend.

The bore is very good. The action functions properly, and the rifle presents as a carefully restored early 20th-century Winchester with its original material intact.

A straightforward, well-restored 1917 Winchester Model 1892 with a 20-inch round barrel, very good bore, period-correct finishes, and original components retained.
