Winchester Special Order Model 1892 Takedown Rifle
serial #300613, 25-20 W.C.F., 24'' part round part octagon barrel with an about very good bore showing scattered light pitting but evident rifling throughout. The metal surfaces of this 1905-made rifle retain about 95% reapplied blue with light wear on high edges and contact points, a few spots of finish loss on the right side of the frame, and some speckled fine oxidation and handling marks. The lever has toned largely to a gray case-hardened patina with areas toning lightly to brown, and a small remnant of case color at the root. The smooth straight grip walnut stock and forend are contemporary replacement and are in excellent condition. The two-line Winchester barrel address and other factory markings are intact and crisp, and some of the screws show some light slot wear. The rifle is sighted with a Lyman ''Hunting'' front sight and a flattop sporting-style rear sight, and the rifle takes down correctly. (14A11669-6) {C&R} (700/900)
