Description:
The R92 Carbine Stainless is one of the few lever-action rifles made today in stainless steel, aside from the Marlin Model 1895. It is a classic copy of the original Winchester Model 1892 rifle designed by John Moses Browning, the fame inventor of the Model 1911 pistol and Auto-5 shotgun. Unlike the original rifle, the R92 features a bolt mounted manual safety. While somewhat out of place, it does ensure the rifle cannot go off accidentally under any circumstances. This rifle is brand new in the box. It features a round, 16-inch-long barrel and a magazine tube capable of holding 8 rounds. It has Brazilian Hardwood furniture and a polished stainless finish. It should be mentioned that the R92 in .357 Magnum can also safely fire the .38 S&W Special and the .38 Long Colt. This is because both of those cartridges are the .357 Magnum’s predecessors, both being slightly shorter in length but having the same rim diameter. Introduced in 1875, the .38 Long Colt was developed from the .38 Short Colt. While certainly longer, the .38 Long Colt differed most from its predecessor in the use of the internally lubricated bullet as commonly used today in modern firearms ammunition. Previously, the nose or front end of a bullet was actually the same diameter as the case. The .44 S&W Russian cartridge brought about this change in bullet design in 1870 and the .38 Long Colt followed 5 years later. The switch in bullet types is also why older .38 cartridges used bullets roughly .380” diameter and modern ones are .357” diameter. Never known for its stopping power, the .38 Long Colt was lengthened to create the .38 Special in 1898. The same was done with the .38 Special to create the .357 Magnum in 1934. The R92 would make an excellent partner for any .357 Magnum Revolver such as the Smith & Wesson Model 66, 686, and 627, Dan Wesson Model 715, the Ruger Vaquero, Blackhawk, and GP100, and the Colt SAA and Python. Uberti makes some excellent copies of the Colt SAA in stainless steel as well. Matching pairs was an important consideration back in the days of the Old West. A person who had a rifle and a pistol in the same caliber only had to carry one type of round, thus saving weight.
