Always looking to buy good second hand Winchester "lever guns" but it seems today they are grossly over priced pieces of near junk! I have a number of 'collector grade' 92's and '94's but if selling I would hardly think they are worth a 4 figure sum. Good shootable barrels are very scarce with many guns requiring rebore or sleeving.
These '92 carbines in 38/40 were ex-prison service with 4 digit numbers made in 1892. Excellent metalwork, carried a lot by guards, but shot very little.
