text: im looking for a ballpark figure as to what the value of my  1890 winchester 22 rifle might be? this is a winchester 22 rifle model 1890 it also has pat.june25,1988 to dec.6 1892 it takes 22 longs and has a octagon barrell the winchester model 1890 was manufactured from 1892 -1932 with 849,00 made. i'm assuming that this is a takedown model with blue finish which is the most commonly found example. if it is one of the 2 earlier models, it would be worth considerably more. all are very collectible.   98% condition $1000 95%                  $900 90%                  $800 80%                  $700 70%                  $600 60%                  $500 50%                  $400 40%                  $350 30%                  $300 20%                  $275 10%                  $235  as you can see condition is everything. most of these guns saw lots of use, 95 - 98% guns are rare.  added john k has kinda muddied the waters here a bit, so i'm going to clarify a few things.  the model 1890 first model solid frame had a case hardened receiver and was manufactured 1890 -1892. there were only 15,000 made and are quite rare and very valuable.  values are: 98% condition $10,000 90% $7000 80% $6000 70% $4500 50% $3500 30% $2500  model 1890 second model takedown frame had a color case hardened receiver the takedown feature was added in 1892 when the solid frame were discontinued. the serial # range on this model was 15,500 to 326,000.  the values are: 98% $4250 95% $3750 90% $3000 80% $2750 70% $2250 50% $1500 30% $800  i can not stress enough, condition is every thing.
