Description:

Manufactured in 1935 as a late third model with the scarce factory fitted round barrel. These barrels began to appear on Model 1890 rifles late in production as production of the Model 62 was beginning to start. Octagon barrels from Model 1890s were available on the Model 62 and round 62 barrels were offered on the 1890 through special order or as a Model 1890 parts cleanup. This example also shows the grooved Model 62 style hammer that Winchester slide action expert and author Ned Schwing points to as a sign of an original factory round barreled Model 1890 assembled during the parts cleanup. It has the standard round barrel markings as well as factory oval proofs on the barrel and receiver at the breech. Mounted with a twelve-groove slide handle and straight grip stock with a crescent buttplate.

Rating Definition:

Excellent, retains 97% plus bright original high polish blue finish with some very light muzzle and cycling wear, and some mild thinning on the buttplate. The wood is very fine with some minor dings and scratches scattered throughout. Mechanically excellent.
