Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Winchester Model 1890 Second Model Takedown is a remarkable example of American ingenuity in firearm design, reflecting both the innovative spirit of its era and the craftsmanship of the Winchester Repeating Arms Company. Introduced in the late 19th century, this pump-action rifle was born from a collaboration with renowned designer John Moses Browning, who aimed to improve upon the less successful rimfire offerings of the Model 1873. Officially patented in 1888, the Model 1890 quickly became known as a versatile and reliable firearm, gaining a reputation as the premier choice for shooting galleries and general all-around use. Its .22 Short caliber made it particularly appealing for recreational shooting, contributing to the production of approximately 775,000 units between 1890 and 1932.

The Second Model Takedown variant, characterized by its 24-inch octagon barrel and smooth straight walnut stock, showcases both functionality and aesthetic appeal. The blue finish enhances the rifle’s classic look, while the dovetail blade front sight and U-notch rear sight facilitate accurate aiming, making it well-suited for target practice. Winchester's decision to incorporate a takedown feature not only improved the rifle's portability but also facilitated easy cleaning and maintenance, further adding to its popularity among enthusiasts. With just under 100,000 units produced in the Second Model configuration before the transition to blued frames, this rifle remains a sought-after collectible, celebrated for its historical significance and performance as a gallery gun. Whether admired for its craftsmanship or utilized for its intended purpose, the Winchester Model 1890 continues to embody the legacy of American firearms engineering.
