I own a Winchester 1892 in .44 WCF made in 1894. I really like that rifle. I have also fired a Marlin Model 1888. The Marlin 1888 is a fairly rare rifle because they only made it for one year before they started the 1889 in side eject. The 1888 is top eject. I believe Winchester wanted the 1892 because the Marlins were so vastly superior to the Winchester 1873.
