The Mare’s Leg, is a shortened version of the Winchester Model 1892 lever action repeating rifle, originally made by “Von Dutch” (Kenny Howard) as a custom model, for Steve McQueen’s character, on the TV series Wanted: Dead or Alive (1958-1961). Produced from 1892 to 1945, the Winchester Model 1892, is a lever action, repeating rifle, designed by John Browning and produced by the Winchester Repeating Arms Company. Over 1,000,000 of these rifles were built, with the millionth rifle being gifted to the U.S. secretary of war, Patrick Hurley, in 1932. The model 92 is arguably the most used rifle in Film/TV, for westerns, having been used by legends such as John Wayne and Steve McQueen.
