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 of revolver is the most sought after of all of the Remington produced handguns. The revolver has the distinctive round barrel that lacks the web beneath the ejector housing found on Model 1875 Remington revolvers. The top of the barrel is marked "REMINGTON ARMS CO. ILION, N.Y." and "44 C.F.W" is marked on the left side of the frame just below the cylinder. The serial number is marked on the lower left side of the frame under the grip panel and on the loading gate. The revolver has a blade front and frame notch rear sights, lanyard stud and ring mounted on the butt and is fitted with checkered hard rubber grips featuring the "RA" monogram at the tops.

Excellent with 97% plus original unpolished nickel finish, with minor scratches, flaking at the muzzle and holster wear at the front of the cylinder. The grips are very fine showing a few minor dings on the lower edges and crisp checkering. The markings remain crisp and clear. The action is missing the trigger spring, otherwise fine.
