The Model 1890 was produced from 1891 until 1896. And only had a production run of 2020 guns. Most were made in 7 3/4″ barrel length. While a small batch were made with 5 3/4” barrels.
The pictured revolver with the 7 3/4” barrel, numbers 1970 and has almost no finish left. The gun is in full working condition. And has amazing patina that shows hard use and age.
The shorter barreled gun is numbered 1436.
[Editor’s note: We are currently evaluating the bluing on #1436]
