Yes, Winchester did produce handguns, although they are primarily known for their rifles and shotguns. The company manufactured a few models of revolvers and semi-automatic pistols in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, notably the Winchester 1910 and 1911 auto pistols. However, these handguns were not as prominent or successful as their long gun offerings and are less commonly recognized in the firearms community today.
