The original Japanese made Browning B92 is as smooth and well made inside as out.
I've had several apart for deep cleaning and they are nice.
About the only significant difference between the Browning and the original Winchester 1892 is that the Browning has a coil mainspring and the Winchester had a leaf spring.
Arguably, the John Browning 1892 design was the best handling and smoothest operating of all the lever action rifles.
If I was buying, I wouldn't even consider a Henry over the older B92.
The B92 was made in .357 Magnum and .44 Magnum.
The .44 is a hunting/defense gun, the .357 is a fun gun that also shoots .38 Special.
A friend had a Rossi replica of the 1892 in .38 special, and we didn't even need ear protection with light hand loads. it was literally as quiet as a long barrel .22 rifle.
