Here is a really cool antique firearm, it is a 1903 model 1890. Over 849,000 were made and alot of them were used at state fairs and carnivals in the shooting parlors for kids. Back when they used real rifles at the carnival giving its name "The gallery Gun". This is a really fun firearm to shoot and its also really cool in style. I had to find some parts and ammo for this video hence why we also had a sponsor "The Ridge" wallet company. Links are below for the wallets, merchandise, donating, and other platforms. Thanks for watching.

A neighbor gave me a gallery gun. Made in 1928, he said he paid $20 for it many years ago. It's in decent condition, shoots good and it's a gun I've wanted one but couldn't find any in decent condition.
He's collected many types of guns, and I'm honored to have it. I grew up 25 miles from New Haven and went there with my dad and his friend when I was probably 8 or 9. I remember going in to drop off a rifle to be repaired, the counter was taller than I, but I could see the machines and workers behind it. I also been to Marlin in North Haven.
They're both gone now, but memories are still with me.
Thanks Tony Gobin, you ole sea dog!
Wow what a great story thank you very much for sharing it with me I appreciate that and I love reading it sounds like a great time thank you for watching
Another resurrection of a rifle. Excellent reconditioning, and excellent workmanship. You the best Brandon! Cheers buddy! 🙂👍🇺🇸
Thank you very much Martin we appreciate it a lot. thanks again for the support and for always watching!
Wow looks great! Glad you upgraded to the glass beeds instead of wire brushes and grinding. 10x better.
Thanks, ya for sure an upgrade on media blasting. Thanks for watching
I am very impressed with your skills of restoring these old firearms!
Thanks Del, I appreciate that very much, thanks for watching and we would love it if you shared it on social media platform, thanks again
My grandfather has one and it’s one of my favorite guns to play with. Something about a pump 22 is just too much fun
It is a very fun gun to fire probably the most fun I’ve had firing a gun so far thanks for watching
Well done gentlemen … an amazing restoration of a classic firearm. I enjoy restoring old firearms myself but I can’t hope to be as talented as you are! Keep up the great work! What a blessing to do something you seem to be passionate about!
Thank you very much we appreciate the support and I'm sure you'll get just as good thanks for watching
Really stunning restoration. Although probably worth more in the origianal condition, the restoration came out beautiful. Someone, like me, would love that in their collection.😁
Thank you very much Andrew I appreciate the support, ya maybe on the value but, it is in good shape for more generations to come, thanks for watching
Nice work! This was two years ago and I’ve watched more recent videos of yours. I’ve seen you refine your techniques and skills since then. The high gloss finish on the wood is something I’d have done when I was young. I’ll bet you’d go more traditional low luster oil and wax on that rifle these days.
Thanks, ya I've improved some. This was a customer's gun, that's why I did the wood that way. Thanks for watching!
Heating in a small countertop oven (150°F) works pretty good too. Don't have to stop and heat each part. Just pull out and go.
Thanks for the tip and for watching we appreciate it very much!
I have the same rifle, it was so used at a shooting gallery way back when and used by my grandfather on his Middletown, NY dairy farm, there's no riflings left in the barrel. No accuracy left in it.
Yep that’s what they were mainly used for and also of course hunting varmint but this one still has some pretty good rifling thanks for watching
That was good restoration...and the shots were incredible.. keep up the good work...and good promotion 🔥
Thank buddy we always appreciate your support and thanks for the promo comment, take care Abin!
.22 short chambering indicates it is a gallery rifle made for shooting galleries. The marks on the front of the barrel were made by the device that kept the rifle down range when in the gallery. My Mom taught me to shoot walnuts off of a tree when I was 5.
Very cool, thanks for all the info and I'm sure you had a blast shooting it, thanks for watching!
I have a model 1890 just like that. I found it in the floor joists of an old house I was up grading the electric in and the homeowner said it wasn't his and I could keep it. It had been there for a long time and after a good cleaning and oiling it would fire, but the barrel was worn completely out. It was as slick as a smooth bore musket...lol... I just cleaned it up and use it as a wall hanger.
Very cool, thanks for the story I enjoyed it! Thanks for watching
My aunt had one of these about a year ago. She said she hasn’t touched it in 50 years, says it’s definitely unloaded. The action is jammed so I open the tube. Waddaya know, about 10 .22 shorts fell out. The slide would not open but I managed to get the hammer back. I go outside, pull the trigger, nothing happens. All of a sudden the hammer falls and the thing goes off, luckily still at the ground. Sketchiest firearm ordeal I’ve ever had.
Wow, pretty crazy story! Thanks for sharing and for watching!
Magnet fishing is on the horizon everyone. Hopefully next weekend of June 4
That's good to hear!!
Yeet at last! 👍🏻 I have been yeetless. 🙄
Yes it is long overdue!
First of all…..what!?!? This is such a beautiful restoration. Oh man.
Thank you we appreciate you!
Beautiful gun and amazing job restoring it!!!
Yes it is, thanks we appreciate it!
I just love that new bead blasting machine, it must make restoration easier.
I was wondering what happened to the magnet fishing series, nice to have an update.
Thanks yeah it makes everything super easy, we have slowed down on the magnet fishing and we are getting more into restoring, thanks for watching
Amazing job but I think I would have gone with a less glossy finish on the stock. The metal work is impeccable. :)
Thank you very much Joseph I greatly appreciate it, yeah a less shiny finish would be nice too thanks for watching
People would probably say the same thing if I get my grandpa's JC Higgins 12 gauge from the 50s restored to looking new. I want to be able to keep and use it for years before passing it on, not doom it to becoming a wall hanger.
Absolutely keeping it going, thanks for watching!
Outstanding work on an American Classic rifle. You exemplify American craftsmanship!
Thank you very much for the kind words! Thanks for watching
Great little rifle back to it's glory! I have one that shoots .22 Rifle, not long or shorts, hard to find. Was my step dads. Got it cleaned up and shoots great. Need to sight it in though. What a great turnaround!
Thank you very much, we appreciate the support! Thanks for watching
Bought one on Saturday NICS is clear. Pick it up tomorrow. Will start showing it some love! Your vid is impressive. You scared me with the sander on the stock. Then again all is swell that ends well! I'd have opted for the steel wool on the stock. Thanks for the vid. I'm hoping you have source info in the description for the screws and small parts.😄😄
That's awesome and good luck! Numrich.com is a good parts cite, thanks for watching!
@@TheKinzlerBros Thanks, based on Serial mine is from 1913 and the condition looks close to yours. Rifling is excellent so I expect to have a nice looking plinker soon!
Beautiful restoration. First repeater I ever shot. Belonged to a neighbor who hunted with my Dad. I think a box of shorts was less than $0.50. Good times.
Thank you very much we appreciate it. They are awesome guns yeah everything was cheaper back then. Thanks for watching
Drop dead gorgeous
Thank you Randy it means a lot. thanks for watching!
Love that old firearm. Really cool awesome work.
Thank you very much Daniel we appreciate it!
I've got that same model 1890 in 22 WRF. Made in 1911. Isn't in nearly as bad shape as that one was, but now I want to restore it to look like new : )
Yeah it really brings the life back into the gun thanks for watching
You made the weapon work like clockwork..
Thank you very much I appreciate it thank you for watching
That one was really awesome ! 👍 Loved it !
Thank you very much Jean we appreciate it!
I am no wood restoring expert. But I amsure you should you tube some wood restoring g videos. So these projects are more period beatiful
Thanks for the advice and for watching we appreciate it!
I would have thought rust bluing would have been the way to go on a rifle that old
Ya probably, we haven't tried that yet! Thanks for watching
Beautiful, I've always wanted one of these. Would be neat if they made one in .22LR. Wonder how hard it would be to convert it?
Thanks, ya me too. I think they do but, they are a few years newer. Thanks for watching we appreciate it!
I love my mod. 1890 mine left the factory in 1898 I can't tell you how many bush tails and cotton tails have fallen to it And tin can bears and outlaws
Ya they are fun!
@@TheKinzlerBrosa little more about my model 1890 it also took down some crows and a few other pets a friend asked me how many Indians did I shoot with it I said none he asked why I said because I'm 1/4 native American he said funny you don't look it
Glassbeads. Work wonders😅😊
Absolutely, thanks for watching!
Love watching your redos. Making things look new
I'm always amazed at how well made guns were. Just a bit of TLC and a 100+ year old rifle is back in action.
Ya there are a lot of very smart people who have made quality guns throughout time,, thank you for watching we appreciate it
Gorgeous restoration!!
Thank you very much!
My grandfather still has his….I used to shoot squirrels with it!
Very cool, ya I bet that was fun. Thanks for watching!
Nice job looks beautiful I got my dad's old 1890 in wrf but to needs retoreing
Thanks, ya that's cool. They are old so most of them need restoring. Thanks for watching
I just inherited a Winchester model 1890 22long and I’m going to blue it restore it myself thanks
That's awesome, good luck on your restoration!
WOW! That is a beautiful gun. Great job and I love your videos.
Yes it is, thanks for the kind words and for watching!
I very impressed with your abilities. Don’t listen to the haters. Most of them are independently wealthy and want to be so called collectors. You do great work. Keep it up.
Thank you very much, I appreciate the support. Thanks for watching!
I had that same Winchester 22 when I was little one great gun.
Very cool, they are awesome guns, thanks for watching
Beautiful restoration
Thank you very much
You do a very good job of restoring firearms, my only wish is that you would talk while doing your videos, it makes it more friendly.
Thank you we appreciate it, thanks for the kind words and for watching!
No bolt cut off on those old pumps. Hold the trigger down and pump away.
Yup another person had mentioned that I did not get to try it as it was a clients firearm
ahhhh. the .22
and underdog of a cartridge yet still affective. once the bullet loses velocity it'll just bounce around in the body(like a headshot to an animal)
Yes it is very underated, thanks for watching
Nice job, great craftsman.
Thank you very much thanks for watching
I really like the color of the metal
Ya it turned out great thanks for watching
Nice work. There were a lot of this Winchesters in my country... greetings from Buenos Aires, Argentina
Thanks, that's cool! Thanks for watching
Beautiful, fantastic, thanks ❤
Thank you very much, thanks for watching!
Title says 1903 Winchester but it's an 1890. The receiver is stamped 1890. Anyway, nice job on the restoration! They are great guns.
I believe that's the model number but thanks for watching and thanks for the info!
Nice gun, Superb refurbishing!
Thank you very much Jose!
Beautiful job! The tung oil varnish is a great topcoat....personal preference: satin finish over gloss. I have the multi-type rifle that can shoot, shorts, longs, and LRs. It needs a refinish like what you did, but it's a little beyond my skill.
Thank you very much yeah we like it with the shiny finish, that is very cool that you have one, maybe we could restore it for you depending on where you live, thanks for watching
I live in Florida...I found the rifle on a top shelf of a closet in an old home I bought from a bank. The owners had passed and it went into foreclosure.
I used to squirrel hunt with an 1890 22lr..serial number 7288..
Very cool yeah they are great little guns thanks for watching
Great little guns learned to shoot with one of these except it was the take down version Gramps had a bunch of sweet old guns
Yes they are a bunch of fun, grampas always have fun guns, thanks for watching
BEAUTIFUL WORK !!!
Thanks Albert, we appreciate it!
Love the striping in the wood. Didn't it say 1890 on it? Beautiful job.
Yeah I really liked the oily look on the one side of the stock from being used and it does have the 1890s stamp on it that doesn’t mean it was made in 1890 this is a 1903 based on how many were made and the serial number this one has thank you for watching
I restored mine I made curly maple stock pump handle it turned out beautiful.
Nice, I bet it did!
LOOKS REAL NICE !!!!! GOOD JOB ! Always good vids !
Thanks Mark we appreciate it very much!
Beautiful work
Thank you very much
Easy to use like it cause it portable
Yes it is, thanks for watching!
I'd love to have a rifle like that.
Ya me too, they are very nice guns, this was a friends!
Good job. But you should have leave some patina. 😊
Thanks, it was for a customer!
Compared to the pistols you restore, this rifle is a pretty complex puzzle
Ya there were quite a few parts! Thanks for watching!
This was definitely even right long before the First World War took place. Since I knew nothing about the existence of this combat rifle. Or is it a hunting rifle?
Hunting and gallery gun!
WOW very nice. Good job.
Thank you very much Nancy
Where did you order the parts from? Specifically the small screws for the firing pin retainer. Thanks!
Numrich.com, thanks for watching
I have my dad’s 1906 pump action Winchester S,L,LR still dead accurate. Never had any work I have shot thousands of rounds through it. My dad bought it secondhand for one dollar in the 1920s lol
What a deal that would be today, ya they are fantastic guns, thanks for watching and the story!
After sighting in at 60 feet, I could easily cover 5 shots with a nickel ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxQt2uORDRfFOVSrO4idv4B90ThT6EOnEL ! Truly a pleasure to shoot! Scope was easy to adjust for eye relief. Only problem the varmints must have seen it delivered lol!Update: So impressed with shot groups at 30 yards I purchased a Hammers 3×9 with adjustable Objective scope! Now a true nail driver!
Absolutely, ya for sure. Thanks for watching
Beautiful job
Thank you very much Larry thank you for watching
Another great restore by the K-Bros
Thanks George we really appreciate it!
Nice little Rifle.
Thanks, thanks for watching!
Omg you totally destroyed all of the over 120 year old patina
Well now it has another 120 years of patina collecting to do, thanks for watching
Great job. Looking for one of those for my Uncle
Thanks, ya they are very cool guns. thanks for watching!
Nice job on the 22 nice looking gun
Thank you very much it was very fun to restore and fire
scraped a few of those barels only keeped a 1906 round gallery gun
Yes these were heavily used in Carnival and Gallery guns of course thanks for watching
Could you give us a ruff idea as to how much that restoration would cost?
Around a thousand, thanks for watching!
Insane restoration

Right, thanks for watching

Wow really cool gun.
You got that right Hannah, thanks for watching!
Beautiful 😎👍
Thanks Mike

Hi Bros. I enjoyed your work as always and never saw this model before, 22 rounds in a 22,honestly? Just kidding. All the best to Dakota from Northern Germany Ludwig.
Haha right! Thanks Ludwig we appreciate it. You have a great weekend!
Love the restoration job, would like to see you tackle on with higher caliber firearms.
Thanks Dereku, we are working on the FFL so we will be working on those soon!
Please use wire wool,not sanding discs,it is a kinder treatment.
Thanks for the tip and thank you for watching
