Remington 1890 Single Action Revolver

Description:
Remington 1890 single action revolver.  In Remington’s efforts they introduced the model 1890 to compete with Colt’s famous and very popular Single Action Army.  There were only 2020 of these 1890’s made with a number of them going to Indian police on Reservations.  Fast forward about 135 years and the 1890, due its very low production numbers is one of the most sought after collectible Remingtons!

This gun has a 5 ¾” barrel with factory black rubber grips.  It is serial number 791 so one can assume that it was made in 1892 or 1893.

The original nickel finish has been completely replated.  The bore is shootable, but little rifling remains, and light pitting is evident in the bore and cylinder chambers.   The black rubber grips have had one small corner glued but well done.

Function wise the gun feels good.  Cocking the hammer indexes the cylinder correctly but the very last “click” seems to be gone.  (John Powers of Powers Metal Works can fix the hammer if you want it to be perfect.)

So this is a nice example of a very rare Remington 1890 Single Action revolver.
