Winchester Model 1892

A Winchester Model 1892 is found at Gramps Johnson's (Matthew McCue) store with the barrel bent in half. It was mistakenly said later that Gramps fired 30-30's at the ants but the model 92 was never chambered for 30-30. You can tell it's a '92 by looking at the short receiver and loading gate and the saddle ring.
