Smith and Wesson K-38 age question

[dasmi]

I just bought a K-38 Masterpiece, six in barrel. There's no model number on it, the barrel is stamped .38 S&W Special CTG. Has serialized, correct grips. Serial is K793XX. What's the approximate age of this gun?

Your best bet it to post this on the S&W D.O.B thread. You'll get expert answers quickly.
