WINCHESTER Model 1890 Pump Action .22 Cal. SHORT Rimfire C&R TAKEDOWN Rifle

Easy Takedown 3rd Version Rifle in .22 Short Rimfire

Here we present a C&R Winchester Model 1890 Slide Action Rifle chambered in .22 Short Rimfire, manufactured circa 1907 in New Haven, Connecticut. In the late 1880s, the Winchester Repeating Arms Company asked John Moses Browning to design a replacement for the Model 1873 rifle, since the rim fire version of the Model 1873 had never achieved any great popularity. On June 26, 1888, a patent for the new design was issued to John & Matthew Browning. Under this patent, Winchester created the second repeating slide action .22 rifle ever successfully developed and manufactured, being narrowly edged out by the Colt Lightning small frame carbine. The Model 1890 proved to be the most successful repeating rim fire rifle for general all around shooting ever made by Winchester. Approximately 775,000 Model 1890 rifles were produced between 1890 and 1932. For many years, the Model 1890 was considered to be the standard for use in shooting galleries, hence its nickname of "gallery gun."

In April 1919, Winchester eliminated the “18” and “19” from the model names of all of the various models that were in active production. So, after this date, the Model 1890 would have been the Model 90.


The overall condition is good. The action fully functions. The bore on this example has retained some shimmer but has dimmed. Solid stock. Legible markings. Visible numbers match.
