I bought this 1911 Model 1890 (in .22 Winchester Auto) made rifle with a P/Oval proofed Model 90 Barrel. I’ve read here that the P/Oval barrel was sold to an outside source as a replacement barrel for installation. I payed $500 for it.

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).
In your post, it sounds like you only made a misprint, with the auto comment, as you clearly posted WRF to Clarence.
Two completely different .22 caliber rounds. Just trying to help clarify and not start any arguments. Nice find, Enjoy your model 1890.
