    The Winchester is a short rifle which is less common than a 24" barreled rifle or a carbine. It doesn't have much finish, though.
    There is surely still some value there. Did you have to pay for it when you got it?

    The JGA .22 is an Anschutz product but is a simple plinker without much in common with their fine and expensive target rifles. It looks pretty rusty, too. Not worth a whole lot in my book.

    Bert H., our resident Winchester expert, should be along later and may be able to give you the correct manufacture date and a fair evaluation, although he may have a few questions first. Keep checking back as he is located on the west coast.

    Winchester Model 1892 serial number 707900 was manufactured in late April of 1913.
