Bill, according to "The Parabellum is Back" if this was the 06/73 9mm (with the more classic grip shape, rather than the straight Swiss grip shape) production started in 1973, and there were about 2,700 made. There is a gap in the Mauser production book with 11958 shipped Mar 29, 1973 and 15223 shipped Jun 23, 1977.

I would estimate production in approximately 1975.
