Difference between Winchester Model 1873 and 1892?
I've been wondering about the differences between these two models, and googling varuiations of this topic tite hasn't gotten me anywhere. It seems the main difference is the 1892's stronger action, which seems to make replicas more suitable for modern ammunition. Are there are other differences between them if we assume both are the same barrel lentgh, chambered in the same ammunition, and are vintage models?
Also, is there an easy way to tell them apart, they look rather identical to me and i would like to know what to look for when identifying one? Z008MJ (talk) 10:04, 20 November 2013 (EST)
