The Chiappa 1892 Mare’s Leg in .45 Long Colt is a lever-action pistol with a 12-inch barrel and a five-round tube magazine (brand part no. 920.185). It is the standard-lever Mare’s Leg, shortening the classic 1892 lever action into a compact handgun format. Chiappa finishes the receiver in color case hardening, blues the barrel and stocks the pistol in hand-oiled walnut. A flip-up rear sight and single-stage trigger keep the controls simple, and the overall length is only 24 inches. It suits a shooter who wants a compact, eye-catching Chiappa Firearms lever-action handgun in a classic cartridge.
