Its Grade I walnut stock with an oil finish and crescent buttplate offers a traditional feel, making it a beloved choice among enthusiasts of Western heritage firearms.

Delving into its features, the Model 1892 includes a steel receiver with a gloss blued finish, Marble’s gold bead front sight paired with a Buckhorn style rear sight for accurate targeting, and a tang safety for secure handling. The brushed polish on the barrel, receiver, trigger, and bolt slide ensures durability and a polished appearance, while the sporter contour barrel and full-length tube magazine provide balanced weight distribution at 6 pounds. These elements contribute to its reputation as one of the handiest and most beautiful lever actions ever produced by Winchester.
