Winchester 1892 configurations?
Has Winchester 1892 basis action, or any currently manufactured reproduction, taken the configuration of a 24-26 inch barrel (octagonal or half-octagon) and pistol grip or half-pistol grip?

I ask because Winchester 1873s and 94s - and modern reproductions - have a bazillion factory configurations. Yet what I've noticed among modern reproductions is always straight grip, curved butt plate, and 20- or 24-inch round barrels.


It's so simple to be wise. Just think of something stupid to say and then don't say it. Sam Levinson

Good morning, I have a Winchester branded reproduction in .32/20 which has 24 inch octaganal barrel and pistol grip. This is also a takedown model. It really hangs well from the shoulder for off hand fun at steel plates.

Winchester 92 takedown deluxe, 24 inch octagon barrel and case finish in 44-40 by Turnbull Restoration. You can get what you want, just have to be ready to pay for it.

Mine is a circa 1907 1892 .357 magnum with 20 inch Douglas barrel and Bishop stocks- just that I wanted:
