Not really. I went to the last one because I happened to be in Indianapolis with time to kill. Got an RCBS primer pocket swager for $12.00 and got to see a Romanian 1893 Mannlicher carbine. I haven't seen anything approaching a good deal since 2019. The smaller shows tend to be better.

I can check it later, but I'm fairly certain Brogan and Zarca mention in "Deadly Business" that Sam Cummings negotiated for two Carcano purchases simultaneously; those from Spain and some from Italy. If true, that would establish the mark as applied by Interarms.
