No, hunting has been a part of this world for millions of years. We are no different than what you would consider "normal" people, we just have different hobbies.
Hunting has been a part of this world since before history could be recorded. Hunting and fishing is how men fed their families. If hunting was not an established practice, everyone would be vegetarians and the world would be overpopulated with animals. If apposed to this theory, there is plenty of literature backing this up. Also, there are very strict rules for hunting. Read them from the game commission. People can not just take and gun or bow and go hunting whenever they feel like it. There are seasons and rules that you must follow or your hunting rights will be revoked, and you could possible face jail time, a felony, having your weapon ceased, and fines to pay.
The Winchester 1892 was chambered for .44 WCF and looks like a model 94. The Mod 94 was not chambered for the .44 WCF and it's doubtful if Winchester would have rechambered a Mod 94 for that caliber when the Mod 92 was so popular. Serial 828032 mod 92 was made in 1916. Are you sure of the date of manufacture? The Winchester Mod 73 was chambered for .44 WCF but the serial number range never got to 828032.

Ithica used the same basic receiver for their 37s. You can find a used butt stock and with minor fitting make it work. Many manufactures produce after market stocks both wood and synthetic. Try looking on eBay, there is a seller making aftermarket stocks for Winchester mannlicher rifles. i don't remember his screen name but he will do other models as well. He uses a copy-cat machine but his work is good, however the stocks are not a "rare find". They are current production.
Numrich (gunpartscorp) shows different part numbers for the 20, 16, and 12 gauge stocks. They claim to sell all three although they are sometimes out of stock.

Why Remington Magazine Follower jamming?
Which rifle??? Which model, so, you left too many variables to answer directly, however if you allow me to get on my soap=box,
I can are refer to a magazine for the notorious Remington 597 in .17 cal,,,,, the answer is "they are junk"!!! The components are cheap, crudely made, ineffective, poorly engineered and otherwise "junk". They have been assembled by monkeys (they could not find a football).
Thank you, now that that is out of my system, most magazines function properly unless they are bent or damaged. Notice i said "most".. try another magazine or two to determine if it is the fault of the magazine or the rifle.
Try disassembling the magazine and polishing the edges of the parts so they slide better.... seems like you could spend a long time attempting a cure before you throw it away and simply buy another magazine.
Will beretta magazines fit a XD?
NO
Beretta mags and other makes of mags can be made to work in xd's. Xd mags have a hole in the front of the mag for the mag catch. That hole can be added to other mags to make them work in xd's. There are a couple of problems with this. Alot of these mags will feed but the follower is different and won't contact the slide stop and lock the slide back. Also if the mag is too long and beretta mags are, the feedlips can contact the ejector of the xd when the mag is inserted. This can break the ejector if they mags are inserted hard.
