Hi Jeremy,
I'm pretty confident either of these sight elevators will fit your rear sight that is currently mounted on your model 1890. In addition to these, I also have one for sale that has the patent date stamping. Send me a PM if you are interested in any of these.

Timothy,
Don't get confused with the .22 WRF, (Winchester Rim Fire, developed 1890), and the .22 Winchester Automatic,(Developed in 1903, specifically for the Win. 1903, semi auto, only).

Two completely different .22 caliber rounds. Just trying to help clarify and not start any arguments. Nice find, Enjoy your model 1890.

I know (I think I know) that Winchester made replacement barrels for the older black powder 1890's and marked them as '90. Always something new with old guns.
