Thread: Winchester model 1892

👋hi
I have a 1913 Winchester model 1892, chambered in 32/20 and I’m wondering if anybody would have a parts gun they’d be keen on parting with,
Or even know a good site to source Winchester lever action parts from.
Also feel free to add your opinions on the model
Cheers
Jay

I have both an original 1894 and 1892 and the action on the 92 is clearly a slicker smoother action. The benchmark. My 92 is also in 32/20

Expensive propisition nowadays. I know where theres one for sale in .32/20 and it looks like its been dragged behind a landrover for a couple miles and they still want 2500$ for it.

Depending on what part you need parts from a Rossi 92 could be fitted

The Winchester 1892 is the quintessence of the Winchester lever action rifle.

Such a shame that the Marlin lever gun is just so much better . ;-)

The Marlin is in no way comparible to a Winchester 92. You have lost mana.

What parts are you after mate? Also, Homestead gun parts have a large amount of new and used parts. I have bought stuff off them and found them very good.

take a 92 apart for a total clean, then a Marlin . . the 92 is a bitch to put together.

Not difficult if you have some instructions but difficult if you just wing it. I had to put one back together for someone who got lost in the process. A model 660 Remington would leave a 92 in the dust.
GPM.

That is a bold statement.

I would say the 1886 in 45/70.is the quintessential lever action Rifle.

Different strokes for different folks I suppose.

I would have agreed with you too if you had mentioned it first...except the 92 is the same only just smaller and more graceful and neater. (We are both wrong though, everyone else would have said the Winchester 94 in .30/.30.)

Yep. Even when you know how.
