The Winchester Model 1892 Deluxe Octagon Takedown in .44 Magnum is a lever-action rifle with a 24-inch full octagon barrel and an 11-round tube magazine (brand part no. 534283124). The receiver, lever, forearm cap and buttplate are color case hardened, and the Grade V/VI walnut stock has a curved grip with a steel shotgun buttplate. A top tang safety and a Marble Arms gold bead front sight keep it traditional, while the takedown design splits the rifle for travel. As a hunting or cowboy action rifle chambered in a classic lever-gun cartridge, this Winchester is flexible.
