124451 This is a home build. some of the parts are from a Winchester. Barrel and mag tube are new and 2" longer than standard. Frame is from an unfinished one so it has my S/N. Color case was by Hunter Restoration. Some of the lettering was done by Gunfancy. This rifle has all the correct lettering for a Winchester 1892 but was not made by Winchester and there is no proof mark. Caliber is 44-40. Still need to come up with a set of sights and work on one of the feed rails.124452

Nice! Was the unfinished frame from Winchester or another source?

SWEET, is about all I can think to say. You do some fine work, wish I had the talent and even more the patience to do stuff like this.

Wow! Looks like Turnbull restorations should offer you a job.

Check your PMs please.

I think Mr Taylor can hold his own...perhaps he should hire that kid Turnbull? ;-)
