As soon as I laid eyes on her, I was hooked!
Those smooth lines and she worked so easy and gentle. I just knew I had to take her home.
Oh, some guy had given her a couple kicks in the fanny and belly, but life isn't perfect.
She looked so young, then I found out you can't trust anybody. She was 101 years old!
Damn. Still looked like a lot of life left in her, though, and she still looked so cute.
I brought her home and the wife is going to let me keep her.

That little mark in the last picture, above the 5, is not a scratch. It is a reminder that my overly friendly cat was helping me take pictures!
 
That is a fine looking 1892. I hope I look that good when I'm 101, but I'm pretty sure I won't.

The 92 action is silky smooth and the 25-20 a pleasure to shoot. Enjoy that one.

Very nice, shame about the caliber though, tough to find and pricey when you do. Nice rifle though. I love the old Winchester rifles. :)
 
I'd like to keep my lady in 20's but @ 101 years old. she must have some experienced that other guns dont!
a keeper!

I'm 49, and I already don't.

Nice find, H4831, seems like she has fallen into the right hands.
 
Very fine "little" lady, Bruce, and in a great caliber! You'll have some fun with her. :)

Be careful, though. I know of one very large grizzly that was put down with a single slap in the head from one of her sisters.

Nice looking rifle, I've had a 92 in 32.20 with an octagonal? barrel for many years, they are certainly a smooth actioned little rifle. --- John303.

True, but it's also a reloader and bullet caster's delight --- talk about miserly on the powder. I would love to have one as a small game rifle.

H4831, you sure brought home a beautiful gal... and that Marbles buckhorn sight... Wow, what a rack!
