Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Winchester Model 1890 is a classic pump-action rimfire rifle designed by John Moses Browning and produced from 1890 through 1932, earning a reputation as one of the finest slide-action .22 rifles of its era. Built with a takedown design, exposed hammer, and tubular magazine, the Model 1890 was intended primarily for gallery shooting, small-game hunting, and training, and it quickly became a favorite in shooting galleries across the United States due to its smooth action and durability. Chambered exclusively for rimfire cartridges of the period, the rifle exemplifies Winchester’s late-19th-century craftsmanship, with forged steel receivers, high-quality bluing, and walnut stocks that continue to appeal to collectors and shooters alike.

The Model 1890 was offered in several distinct variations based on caliber and configuration, including .22 Short, .22 Long, .22 Long Rifle, and .22 WRF, with each rifle typically marked for its specific cartridge to prevent interchangeability. Early rifles are often categorized as First, Second, and Third Models, reflecting mechanical and cosmetic changes such as improvements to the takedown system and internal components. Additional variations include octagon or round barrels, different barrel lengths, and optional finishes such as special-order stocks or engraving. Because many were heavily used in galleries, high-condition examples—especially in less common calibers like .22 WRF or with special features—are particularly sought after today, making the Winchester Model 1890 an enduring and highly collectible piece of American rimfire history.
