I haven't found any info on actual production year per serial number, but it should be pretty early production as it has the hex barrel and a 1st variation slide.

I actually like this model better than the smooth barreled ones. The hex barrel is one of the distinct features of this pistol, and I like the "utilitarian" look. No barrel vise needed, just put a wrench on it. As a gunsmith, you just gotta love this feature.
