There is something special about a rifle that looks like it belongs in a different era. The shape, the stock, the sights, and the way it feels in your hands all add to the experience before the first shot is ever fired. That is exactly what makes the new Winchester air rifles stand out.
The latest lineup includes three models with their own personality: the Winchester Model 1866 Multi-Pump Pneumatic, the Winchester Model 1873 Multi-Pump Pneumatic, and the Winchester Model 1892 Lever Action Rifle. Each one carries a familiar Winchester-inspired look while offering the kind of practical airgun features that make target shooting, plinking, and backyard practice more enjoyable.
Whether you are looking for a multi-pump pellet rifle with strong performance or a classic lever-action BB rifle made for easy shooting fun, these new Winchester models give airgun shooters more ways to enjoy a traditional shooting experience.
The Winchester Model 1866 is a .177 caliber pellet air rifle built for shooters who want classic styling with the flexibility of multi-pump pneumatic power. It has the look of a traditional Winchester-inspired rifle, but it is designed for modern backyard target practice and casual plinking.
The multi-pump design gives the shooter more control over each shot. For closer targets or relaxed shooting, fewer pumps can be used. When more velocity is needed, additional pumps allow the rifle to reach speeds up to 1,010 fps. That makes the Model 1866 a versatile option for different shooting distances and different types of practice.
One of the most useful features is the 10-shot rotary magazine. Instead of loading one pellet at a time after every shot, the magazine helps keep the shooting experience moving. It is a simple feature, but one that makes a big difference when you are spending time at the target range or enjoying a longer plinking session.
The Model 1866 also includes a rifled steel barrel, which helps support accuracy with .177 caliber pellets. A blade and ramp front sight pairs with an adjustable rear sight, giving shooters a reliable open-sight setup right out of the box. For those who want to add compatible accessories, the dovetail rail gives the rifle some extra flexibility.
Finished with a brown all-weather synthetic stock and forearm, the Model 1866 has a traditional look while still being built for regular outdoor use. It is a strong choice for shooters who want a lightweight, approachable pellet rifle with old-school character.
The Winchester Model 1873 follows the same classic spirit but brings its own Western-inspired personality to the lineup. Like the Model 1866, it is a .177 caliber multi-pump pneumatic pellet rifle built for target shooting, skill-building, and everyday plinking.
The Model 1873 is made for shooters who appreciate a familiar frontier-style look but still want practical performance. Its brown all-weather synthetic stock and forearm give it a traditional appearance, while the multi-pump powerplant makes it easy to adjust the rifle’s output based on the shot.
With velocities up to 1,010 fps, the Model 1873 has plenty of power for backyard target shooting and recreational use. The shooter can control the number of pumps depending on the distance and the type of practice, making it a good fit for anyone who wants a hands-on airgun experience.
The 10-shot rotary magazine is another major advantage. It keeps pellets ready for quicker follow-up shots, which helps shooters stay focused and maintain rhythm between shots. Combined with the rifled steel barrel, the Model 1873 is designed to deliver dependable performance and consistent shooting fun.
The sight setup is simple and practical, with a blade and ramp front sight and an adjustable rear sight. For shooters who prefer to customize their rifle, the dovetail rail provides room for compatible optics or accessories.
The Model 1873 is a great option for anyone who wants the feel of a classic Winchester-style air rifle with the convenience of repeat-shot capability and modern airgun construction.
For shooters who love the feel of a lever-action rifle, the Winchester Model 1892 brings a completely different kind of fun to the lineup. This .177 caliber BB rifle is spring-powered and built around a classic lever-action design that feels right at home in a backyard plinking setup.
The first thing that stands out is the styling. The Model 1892 features a hardwood stock and forearm, giving it a more traditional look and feel. The oversized loop lever with leather wrap adds even more character, making this rifle feel like a true Western-inspired BB gun.
Performance is simple, smooth, and easy to enjoy. The Model 1892 shoots .177 caliber, 4.5mm steel BBs at velocities up to 350 fps, making it a great choice for casual target practice, plinking cans, and introducing newer shooters to safe, controlled airgun handling.
One of its most convenient features is the 650 BB reservoir. With that much capacity on board, shooters can spend more time aiming and shooting and less time stopping to reload. That makes the Model 1892 especially fun for longer backyard shooting sessions.
The rifle also includes fixed open sights and a smooth bore steel barrel, keeping the shooting experience straightforward. A Picatinny rail adds a modern touch, giving shooters the option to mount compatible accessories if they want to personalize the setup.
The Model 1892 is ideal for anyone who wants a BB rifle that is easy to use, fun to shoot, and full of classic lever-action style.
What makes this new Winchester air rifle lineup interesting is that each model offers something different.
The Model 1866 is a lightweight, versatile multi-pump pellet rifle with a 10-shot rotary magazine and traditional styling. The Model 1873 gives shooters a similar multi-pump pellet rifle experience with a distinct Western-inspired design and dependable target-shooting features. The Model 1892 goes in a different direction with its lever-action BB operation, hardwood stock, oversized loop lever, and large BB reservoir.
Together, these rifles give shooters more choices depending on how they like to enjoy their time outdoors. Pellet shooters may prefer the added accuracy potential of the rifled barrel and rotary magazine found on the 1866 and 1873. BB shooters who want a fun lever-action experience may find the 1892 hard to put down.
The new Winchester Model 1866, Model 1873, and Model 1892 air rifles are built for shooters who want more than just another airgun. They bring character, style, and a familiar Winchester-inspired feel to backyard shooting.
From multi-pump pellet performance to lever-action BB fun, these rifles are made for plinking, target practice, and creating the kind of shooting experience that feels simple, enjoyable, and timeless.
For anyone looking to add a classic-style air rifle to their collection, the new Winchester lineup is worth a closer look.
