(CIL) ANSCHUTZ Model 310

I am curious about my son's Anschutz .22. It is a Canadian CIL Model 310 Anschutz.

(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_Industries_Limited)

We are unable to locate any number or letter date code and would like to know when it was made.

It was purchased new in Vancouver, B.C., by his grandfather. Note the original brochure claims the rifle is for "Calibre .22 LR, L and S." That dates it a bit.

What is the equivalent model number Anschutz?

Some of those rifles had a 2 digit date code stamped on the left side of the barrel immediately in front of the action. My 190 is stamped 69, for 1969. Bob's 141 is stamped 66. Some of the later ones don't, a friend of mine has a later edition 190 that isn't stamped.
Not all of those rifles have the CIL stamp either, some are simply stamped "Anschutz 190", for example. I've seen a few like that over the years
Nice rifle, especially when you consider the prices listed in the CIL flyer such as the one Andy posted.
I guess in those days that was considered expensive enough, today not so much.
