FIGURE 1 Model 1892 Features The Model 1892 of today is a careful reproduction of one of the original configurations made over 100 years ago. Traditional open sights are easily adjustable for elevation and drift adjustable for windage. The Model 1892 design is visually exciting with its complex machining and hand finishing. These qualities are uncommon in most of today’s mass produced guns. They are qualities that take more effort to build, something you will appreciate for years to come. The two vertical locking lugs lock into matching recesses in the breech bolt for secure lockup. Innovative rebounding hammer. The tubular magazine loads through a loading port in the right side of the receiver. The convenient top-tang “safety” is easy to reach with the shooting hand. The Model 1892 is a compact version of the revered Model 1886. Smaller, lighter and faster handling than the Model 1886, the Model 1892 shared the same cartridges as popular revolvers of the day. That meant the shooter had to carry only one caliber of ammunition to serve both the rifle and revolver. The design of the lever and link mechanisms are both clever and unique. These attributes made the compact Model 1892 a handy, fast-handling favorite. Your Model 1892 has a beautiful stock and buttplate design patterned after classic versions popular more than a century ago. 10 11
