Description:
AN INTERESTING AND UNUSUAL 1890 RIFLE IN SCARCE AND DESIRABLE .22 LONG RIFLE CALIBER, what's unusual about this one that was made in 1926 is that the barrel has both the "mail order" oval proof mark PLUS the regular Winchester proof indicating that the barrel was put on by Winchester, so the question is...was this one sent back to Winchester with the request it be rebarrelled  in  .22 LR or did Winchester simply need a barrel in this caliber and take one out of the extra mail-order barrel bin? Either way, by 1926 many of these were being made in the popular Long Rifle chambering and it is 100% Winchester built, exc. bright bore, fine aged receiver blue with silvering on the top and bottom, fine+ barrel and mag blue, Marbles buckhorn rear sight with small blade/bead front sight exc. late style barrel and tang markings, tight action, exc. forend, fine+ butt stock with only light handling marks.
