- A friend offered a trade for one of my custom revolvers. I cautioned him that he probably couldn't tempt me, but asked what we was offering. As it turned out he COULD tempt me! This lovely, almost pristine Model 90 came into my hands as a result.

I have my grandfather‘s model 90. His mother gave it to him when he was a kid. Just for reference, I am 80 years old and the gun was produced in 1895 according to the serial number My grandfather carved his girlfriend’s name and a crude drawing of the cabin he was born in on the stock. His girlfriend later became my grandmother.
I learned to shoot from my mom on an 1890 some 60 years ago. (Pop was city, Mom was country). The gun was originally my grandmother's. I still have the rifle in my safe. To have an everyday shooter, I recently purchased a copy by Henry. Such good memories...
I just left a comment about having a Henry pump.
I have the impression that the Henry is heavier than the older rifles. Is that the case?

My envy knows no bounds.
Awesome rifle
That's a beautiful old classic Winchester pump.
Never noticed that they kick the shell out to the left. It's a southpaw gun! Damn, now I have to try to find one I can afford.
I had never seen .22wrf for sale before and didn't know it was still made. But a couple years ago i found several boxes of the cci .22wrf. So i bought them just incase i find one of those rifles. Your rifle appears to be in fantastic shape. Thanks for the video.
I love those old pump action rifles.
I have a Henry 22LR and it's a fun thing to play with but it's a bit heavy.
The old rifles look lighter.
I found one in a corner of a barn while in the service and worked at a horse ranch when off duty. Bought it from the ranch owner. He was shooting 22LR in it. Thought the barrel was shot out. That was back in 1971. Still have it. And whenever I find the ammo for it, I buy it
When I was a kid, I had a 22 Sears Ranger pump and my brother had a Winchester pump. I am not sure if it was a model 90, but as best I can remember from over 50 years ago it looked like that. Between the two of those we wreaked havoc among the squirrel and rabbit population in Blount County.
I have a Model 1890 made in 1901 in 22 short, not pristine but a great shooter as it has had the barrel sleeved sometime in the past.
What a beauty.
I have a dinky little .22 lr version of that rifle.. But in my collection, I have a couple of boxes of .22 WRF rounds that may be as old as your rifle..
Beautiful rifle! 👍🏽😀❤️🇺🇸
This is what I learned to shoot on by my grandpa. My dad ended up giving it to my nephew 😔who has no interest in guns.
Wow, she sure is pretty! Hey, I was trying to pick up a paperback copy of one of your Dwarven Rifleman books on Amazon, and they’re currently unavailable. Is reading on Kindle my only option?
At the moment, though Rage of Angerls is now out as a Trade paperback- the publisher sent us a couple of copies.
Vendor at the gunshow i went to this spring had one chambered in 32 rimfire could figure no way to convert it to centerfire and 32rimfire going for 100 dolars a.box i passed
👍👍
I have this exact rifle. It belonged to my father inlaw who passed away 10 years ago. I don't think it has not been fired in years. I cannot find the serial anywhere on the rifle. Not behind the trigger or on the barrel. The blueing is all gone. Any idea where the serial might be? Thanks
Sorry, I don't know. Mine isn't here ATM so I cannot check.
i like pump rifles.
What happens if you try to shoot .22 magnum in it?
Won’t fit. 22 mag is too long I think… but maybe
It won't chamber, the case is too long. not sure it would fit in the shell elevator either.
@@tinkertalksguns7289 Would the gun be up to withstanding the much higher pressure of the .22 mag?
@@loquat44-40 Possibly, but I wouldn't want to guess wrong about that.
