    Is there any difference between US made and Austrian Glocks?

    MY local shop (J&G) has both, with different model numbers in G43. Mom's Bday is coming up.

    Just like the water in the sink swirls in the wrong direction in Australia, could be the bullet spin for an Australian glock might spin in the wrong direction as well. Can't be too cautious now days.

      US Glocks are off roster. Austrian Glocks can be purchased by us mere mortals.

      edit: Oh, I see your location. You're not "One-Of-US". Nevermind.

          Pretty sure US made Glocks don't have Tennifer finish.

            U.S. made Glocks are specifically designed to kill children and the elderly. Our wise masters have determined that they are not safe for us peasants to own.

              Just like no one wants a US built BMW X5, I'll get the Austrian model. If she still likes her Lady Smith, I'll have her sell it in CA for $1500 at the end of October

                The american made one let loose eagles and rainbows and military bands while the austrian ones dream of german surrender.
                That and the finish is different.

                      Didn't know there was USA made Glocks. I wouldn't want one.

                        Glocks aren't made in Australia.

                          Austrian Glocks have an accent when you pull the trigger

                            Austrian Glocks smell like wienerschnitzel when they get hot.

                              Same gun. I would rather USA Built, seem to be cheaper and does the same thing. Thanks to the suckers that don't know any better.
