This classic Winchester Model 1892 Saddle Ring Carbine, manufactured in 1924, is chambered in .32 W.C.F. (.32-20) and features a traditional 20-inch round barrel with full-length magazine and walnut stock. The carbine retains its saddle ring and is fitted with a side-mounted J. Stevens long-tube rifle scope, an especially interesting period-style addition that allows the original open sights to remain usable. The scope retains good crosshairs with slightly hazy glass, while the rifle has a bright bore with good rifling.
Displaying the honest character expected of an original Winchester from this period, the carbine shows age and handling wear along with a noted stock repair. The combination of the compact saddle-ring configuration, desirable .32 W.C.F. chambering, and vintage J. Stevens scope gives this Model 1892 considerable visual appeal and Old West character. It is an attractive example of Winchester’s enduring lever-action design with the added interest of an early long-tube optical sight.
