Some questions and help requested on that winchester 92
Well to start.
I have the lever/ bolt stuck open right now.
I can't get the two locking parts out.
Not sure what to do there ?
The other general question would be about sights.
Would these be the standard ones ?

Hard to tell what is jamming up your action without knowing how far it's dis-assembled. 92/94's are a little more complicated than Marlins!
My Dad's brought home a good selection of old Winnie levers, and due to his hand issues, it's been my mission to tear down, degunk, re-lube, and reassemble a good percentage of their model line once, maybe twice. Mostly what I've learned from the experience is. . .#1, They take patience, and #2, I'd MUCH rather work on his Marlins.
I can't find my copy of Nick Stroebel's Old Gunsights at the moment, but my Standard Catalog of Winchester Firearms shows those same sights on two Sporting Rifles. The Saddle Ring Carbine appears to have used something different.

I do like the sights on it.
They should make for some precise shooting if my barrel cleaning....getting the lead out did the trick.
Unfortunately I won't be finding out today.
The Marlin is up next for the scrub down
@jaywapti helped me a lot with the old 94s
I don't want to mess anything up so I'll just wait for now.
I am anxious to see what it will do now.
I thoroughly cleaned the Marlin and the results were interesting.
It’s a °IIIII° thing 😎
I'm in a holding pattern.
I Didn't do much disassembly at all.
