John,

The "IB" code on the barrel dates your gun to 1981, probably late-1981. H-K date codes were:

Letter #
A 0
B 1
C 2
D 3
E 4
F 5
G 6
H 7
I 8
K 9

I think its late-1981 because I have 843xx in my database that has a 1982 "IC" code.

One other small piece of trivia... slide removal on this model is the same as the WWII Sauer 38H.
