None
The the first ones were manufactured in Spain, then Germany followed suit. China manufactured unlicenced copies of the Spanish pistols, and the Brazilians manufactured a modified variant of the German pistols.
Contact High Standard with the Serial Number and they will tell you when it was manufactured.

Hi-Standard made multiple models of pistols. Some had slide locks.
Depends on model (and there are DOZENS of models of High Standard pistols) and the condition.
