Want to mention that as designed the 1892 I built has a breechblock that cant tolerate Hi-Speed ammo. It will break.. Those brown parts you see in the picture are A-2 tool steel hardened and tempered. Later when I rebuilt the original 1892 I used S-7 tool steel and redesigned the breechblock so it has more steel in the critical areas. Also I relined it's barrel. Yet I have an issue with it that makes me uncomfortable , The rifle didn't come with a cartridge stop and it needs one to be reliable- worn as it is. That means I will have to mill a slot inside it and drill and tap a hole thru the side. I hate to do that to my old firearm.
