I recently acquired a winchester model 92 chambered in 32wcf. The rifle is in good condition I guess. I'm not very knowledgeable on older Winchester or anything else for that matter. The blueing is about 40-50% on the receiver and 60-70% on the barrel. The wood is solid with no cracks or gouges, but has handling marks and scratches, but nothing deep. The barrel measures 19 1\4" and has a button magazine. The front sight is solid to the barrel (no dovetail) rear sight is dovetail flip up. Th only thing is see really wrong with the rifle is the tang screw closest to the hammer has been ground down smooth with the tang. I really couldn't find info online about rifles with the button mag, I hope someone here can give me a little more info and a value, thanks.

I'd like to listen to the stories that one could tell. What's the bore look like?

I have only opened the action and looked at it with my naked eye. The rifling looks to be good but it's dark. I haven't had a chance to put any patches down it or my borescope.

That will definitely impact the value.
