For Bert
Bert: I thought I read sometime back that you were putting together a book on Winchester dates and etc. If so when can we expect it to be out? Thanks in advance for any info. Terrill.

A while back I talked about a winchester 1892 38-40. It has a 22 inch barrel that is half round and octagon. It has a button mag. It is a beautiful rifle. Serial number is 188155. A lot of discussion and you said when I got the serial you can tell if it is all original. Told it is. Thanks for your help. 0 -
I'm not Bert, but, I do have copies of books. All I can tell you is, your 92 was built in the early part of 1902.
I'm sure Mr. Hartman will be along presently to give you a more concise answer.

The factory ledger record indicates that it should have a 24-inch barrel. What is the exact distance from the muzzle face to the forward most part of the front sight dovetail cut? 0 -

Bert it looks like the barrel is 21 and 9/16 with out threads. From back of barrel toback of front site is 20 and 11/16. To front of sight is 21. The round part of the barrel is 10 and 5/8. The oct is 11 inches without the threads. I will try to post some pictures. Thanks.0 -
The barrel has been shortened (cut down). 0
