Manufactured in 1894, this is an exceptional example of a documented special order takedown Winchester Model 1892 rifle. The included factory letter lists the rifle in .32 caliber with an octagon barrel, plain trigger, and takedown configuration when received at the warehouse on 1 September 1894 and shipped on 12 October 1894 in order number 23910. The top barrel flat is marked with the standard two-line address and the caliber marking at the breech. The upper tang is marked with the three-line model, trademark, and patent date, and the serial number is marked on the bottom of the receiver. It is fitted with a period modified blade front sight and elevation adjustable buckhorn rear sights. It is mounted with a very nicely figured smooth forearm and straight grip stock with a crescent buttplate.
