AnswerInterarms was importer only.
Its now out of business. Your Rifle is Rossi 62.
It should say made in Brazil on it. These were introduced in 1978 and imported with the Interarms
name till they were forced out of business by BATF in the 1990s. Rossi was imported again by Brazil Tech in 1997. I would Email Rossi in Brazil to assess its date of manufacture.

This rifle is a copy of the Winchester model 1890.
Rossi stopped making repeating long arms a few years ago.
Taurus another Brazilian arms company now produces this rifle.
