Winchester model 90

[MiCo]

Somebody's got to know this...

I have an old Winchester model 90 pump action chambered for 22LR. It will also function just as well with 22 Short and 22 Long. Every search I try comes up with info (some conflicting) about the 1890. From what I've gathered, the 90 was pieced together from 1890 parts.

I would love to know manuf. date and any other interesting facts about this gun. It seems there are 3 generations of the 1890. I assume the 90 came after. The serial # is 372XXX.

Thanks!

Based on this:

Winchester Model 1890

Looks like maybe 1909? My dad's got a couple of the ones that shoot 22 WRF - I've got a soft spot in my heart for these guns.

Is yours a round barrel or octagon?

Mine is the round barrel. I have seen that chart and another that would date it at 1907, but mine is stamped "90" and not "1890". Can't seem to find much of anything on 90. It looks just like the 1890 but has round barrel. The only thing I found hints that it could have been made around 1940ish.

I'm just looking for an exploded view of this gun so I can get it shooting again. I've got a part that fell out of the action that I can't figure out where it goes.

Your barrel has probably been changed. Your LR. round barrel would be 23" in length. Original barrels were 24" What is stamped on the upper tang?
