Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Winchester Model 1892, often referred to simply as "The 92," is widely regarded as one of the most elegant and smoothest lever-action rifles ever created. A direct descendant of the larger Model 1886, designed by John Browning for heavier calibers like the .45-70 Government, the Model 92 was developed as a more compact and efficient rifle suitable for lighter pistol calibers. This shift was prompted by the demand for a lever-action rifle that could handle calibers like the .357 Magnum and .44 Remington Magnum, which were ideal for hunting and personal defense, as well as for use in cowboy action shooting. Browning’s design combined rugged functionality with smooth operation, making the Model 92 an immediate success and solidifying its place in firearm history.

The Model 92 Short Rifle, a modern iteration of this classic design, offers a perfect balance of power and portability. The rifle features a 20" round barrel in gloss-blued steel, paired with a blued steel receiver that exudes classic charm. Its lever-action mechanism and tubular magazine provide smooth, reliable feeding, while the Grade I walnut stock, with its oil finish and straight grip, adds to the rifle’s timeless appeal. Notable details like the crescent buttplate, reminiscent of the original models, and the Marble Arms gold bead front sight give the rifle an authentic, traditional look. With a tang safety and a top tang drilled and tapped for an optional peep sight, the Model 92 Short Rifle is both a functional tool and a beautiful collector’s piece. Available in both .357 Magnum and .44 Remington Magnum, it is well-suited for a variety of uses, from hunting in dense brush to engaging in fast-paced cowboy action shooting.
