Clabrough Johnstone SxS and Winchester Model 1890

[CZ Canuck]

A buddy of mine just inherited the above firearms and was looking for information on them.
PM me any info you may have on them (including worth should he decide to sell) as i do not frequent this forum.
I have asked him to send me pics so that I can post them.
Clabrough Johnstone (Missing one firing pin and one hammer does not #### smoothly)

Winchester Model 1890, .22 Short (Missing mag spring and mag cap. I think he is going to order parts from Numrich)

Pics will go a long way with identification, hard to guess right now with no info. Once you have pics it should be pretty simple.

Cheers, McLean

1582? Does it have rosetta stone stocks/ grips? (joke, couldn't resist)

Price on the Clabrough depends in part on the condition of the bore but with a broken stock and probably work needed on either the tumble or the sear, I can't see it exceeding $200. firing pin is an easy make. The 22 pump also depends on the bore; many have fairly pitted bores from lots of shooting and minimal cleaning and / or because they have been gallery guns. (22 short makes me suspicious). I also don't think the 22 short can be changed to long rifle because I seem to recall that the cartridge carrier / lifter is slightly different. With a shootable bore, I think $300 - $500 when missing parts replaced and depending on closer look. And no I don't want to buy it; already have one in long rifle

Yes, the Clabrough is a $200.00 parts gun if anyone needed those exact parts. Would cost a fortune to replace the stock and refinish the barrels. Also how much play is in the action or pitting in the bores?

Thanks for the replies guys. I will enquire about the bore conditions.
