US made glock or not?

Not sure you can rely on the frame marking. Here is a 1999 model with both:

No Austrian proof mark on the slide - I'd vote US made

They were not made in the US at that time yet, the answer is a few posts above with USA on the slide for the 100% USA made Glocks.

The pic you quoted was made in Austria and Glock USA imported it.

Private Party Transactions - PPT - are exempt from the Roster, so that sale and gun are fine.

My understanding is they can all be SSE'd. Gen 4 has never been listed, but many have been brought in as SSE. CA DOJ took a while to catch up with Glock selling US manufactured models in the USA, but they have now ruled them to be a different gun. Glock will not submit them as they lack currently-required features.

If you want a new Glock, Gen 3 Austrians are fine if you can find them. All others will have to be SSE'd or purchased by active LEOs.

Is the frigging G19 even worth all this BS? No...
