If your husband was born in 1976 and his father became a British citizen in 1992, then he cannot be a British citizen by descent. Citizenship by descent, in most cases, requires one of the parents to have been a British citizen at the time of the person's birth.
It is much more likely that he was registered as a British citizen along with his father in 1992, unless his mother was a British citizen otherwise than by descent before his birth.
And if he was registered as a British citizen , it is unlikely (but not impossible) that he is a British citizen by descent.
Check with him and with his father if either of them have a separate registration certificate in his name.
As he would have been in his late teens at the time of the registration, he may recall if he was registered or not.
