yes they are one in the same
There are actually two different types of these and the newer one simply has a screw in the end so I will assume you have the older one. At the end of the forend assembly you will see a steel retaining plug that attaches to the tube assembly that goes through the forend. It is held in place by a retaining pin that must first be removed. After that has been done the plug can now be removed from the end. Next you will need to release the action and slide the forend back to the receiver which will expose a hole in the slide asembly tube. Take a heavy drift punch and insert it into the hole and turn the tube out counterclockwise. You can now slide the barrel and the forend forward thus disengaging the tube from the forend. The last step is to use a spanner (or homemade wrench ) wide enough to unscrew the forend retaining ring. With the ring removed you are now ready to slide the forend off the slide assembly. Hope this helps. Steve

You need to ask a gunsmith for help
1930 if you are referring to a Model 1890 slide action rifle.
Your Winchester Model 12 Slide Action Shotgun in 12 gauge with serial number 1747610, was manufactured in 1959.
AFAIK, there is no Winchester Model 90A. Is it a lever action, slide action, bot action, semi-auto or single shot? What caliber? What type and length of barrel?
Not only is it not NORMAL, it is not SAFE. Get it to a gunsmith. -- Well, it Depends -- We get a few of these every year. The Model 1300 used what USRAC called their 'Speed-Pump' technology, where the recoil of the shot actually assists in the slide action rearward stroke. What is happening is that your grip on the forearm is causing the slide to come rearward in recoil. To see if the action slide lock is functioning properly, rack the action (empty) and see if the forend will slide back without pushing the action slide lock release. repair@countrygunsmith.net
Looking at Winchester models, there is nothing listed for a Model 90 with serial number 298032. They have Model 1890 in a slide action, Model 1900, 1902, and 1904 in a bolt action rifle.
