Description:

Remington only manufactured about 2,000 of the Model 1890 Single Action Army revolvers from 1891 to 1894. The Model 1890 was the successor to the Model 1875 and was intended to be the competitor of the Colt Single Action Army. This model revolver is the most sought after of all of the Remington produced handguns. The top of the barrel is marked "REMINGTON ARMS CO. ILION, N.Y." and "44 W" (very unique) on the left side at the breech and the serial number is marked on the left side of the frame under the grip. The revolver has an all nickel finish, blade front and frame notch rear sights, lanyard stud and ring mounted on the butt, and is fitted with checkered hard rubber grips with the "RA" monogram at the tops.

Rating Definition:

Excellent. The revolver retains 90% plus original nickel finish with some wear on the muzzle, a small amount of flaking on the barrel and wear and area of minor pitting on the left side of the frame and ejector housing ahead of the cylinder. There are some overall scattered dings and scratches. The grips are very good. With the exception of a chip repair on the heel of the left panel, there is some minor wear, a few minor handling marks and crisp checkering. The markings are crisp. The action is excellent.
