The serial number 790352, with a factory letter confirming its application on October 29, 1928, places this rifle in the later production period of the Model 1890, which ran from 1890 to 1941. Designed by John and Matthew Browning, the Model 1890 was the first successful slide-action rimfire rifle, renowned for its reliability and versatility for small game hunting, plinking, and shooting gallery use. The .22 WRF cartridge, introduced with the rifle, offered improved performance over earlier rimfires, making it a favorite among sportsmen. Its historical significance lies in its pioneering pump-action design and its popularity in early 20th-century America, often seen in carnivals and rural settings. This example is in extremely fine condition for a Model 1890, retaining 95% of its original blue finish on the 24" octagon barrel and over 90% on the receiver, with only slight edge losses and thinning. The bore is brilliant, bright, and sharp, indicating minimal use and excellent maintenance. The varnished straight-grain walnut stocks, featuring a crescent butt plate and a 13" LOP, are superb, with most of the original varnish intact. All numbers match, confirming originality, and the factory sights are intact. Mechanically excellent, the slide action operates smoothly, and all markings, including the Winchester logo and caliber designation, are crisp and legible. The included factory letter enhances its collectible value, providing documented provenance. Don’t miss your chance to own this beautifully preserved Winchester Model 1890, a documented classic of American firearms history.
