WINCHESTER Second Model 1890 in 22 SHORT. The Serial number on this takedown gun is 164803, indicating production in 1903. This gun, as an early Second Model, only has the serial number on the lower tang. The gun has a 24 inch OCTAGON Barrel and a decent bore with rifling present and only minor markings in the lans. Wood all in very good shape and stock with original Winchester-issued curved metal butt plate. There is some old pitting on the receiver bottom, most of bluing has turned to a brown patina, and the side of receiver has lost cover. Original issue Winchester sights still on this gun, with stamped patent dates on both and elevation screw still on the rear sight. All parts function on this gun. A nice collectable 1890 Winchester.
