The Mare’s Leg (aka Mare’s Laig; both sometimes spelled without the apostrophe) was the name given to a customized shortened rifle by Steve McQueen’s character on the television series Wanted: Dead or Alive (1958–1961). McQueen’s character was named Josh Randall and the gun has also been referred to as a Winchester Randall or a Randall Special. Mare’s leg is now a generic term for a Winchester Model 1892 (or modern derivative) with a shortened barrel and stock.
