Google Walther importers then Earl's. Somewhere in the list you will find Earl's in Massachusetts. A phone call to him will solve your problem

While certain numbers can be affixed to certain dates by milestones and factory engraving, any other numbers must be approximated. The Walther plant fell under the Soviet Occupation Zone at the end of the war, and while production dates and figures may lie in some dusty repository, as of yet they have not been released.

The Interarms gun should have a 2 digit year of manufacture stamped on the barrel in the ejection port.
