I happened across an old Winchester model 1892 today. I can't seem to find much info online to properly date this gun.
The serial# is 3832xx, It has the proper markings on the barrel and the tang behind the hammer. The barrel is octagon shaped
I think the caliber is 25-20, on the left side of barrel just in front of the breach are the numbers 25-2, I think the 0 is just under the breach. Right behind the rear sight is also the number 20.
The finish is worn, not appearing to be redone. I think someone changed some parts on it trying to make it pretty as it has a chrome ? buttplate,lever, trigger, rear sight, forestock end and barrel band. Also the thin metal band on top of the slide is chrome. I would assume the chrome parts are after market.
I am not the best photoghrapher in the world but here are some pictures.
Thanks for any and all knowledge and input
