I went to the LGS where the owner had a trade-in G30 - Gen3. I have a G21 and G30S and I have wanted a G30 for a while. Actually I wanted the G30 when I got the G30S. I was glad I got the G30S. Now I have the G30 also. I'll shoot it in a couple of days.
The SN has US added to the end, but only on the frame. The SN on the barrel shroud and the side of the slide are the same, but don't have US on the end. Anyone know what this means?
You should PM me when you feel bored and tell me how to do it. I have to call my wife in here to post the one pic I've posted here in 2 yrs.....the same effing pic.
Can't tell you why the US on the end of the S/N, but congrats on the 30. I have the 30SF and like it a lot. Had the 30S but sold it because I preferred the 30SF.
All the older Glocks that went through Glock Smyrna had US on the end of the serial number on the frame plate. My 1997 G27 Gen 2.5 has "US", but my 2005 G17 Gen 3 does not. My 2005 was made just a few months after Glock went with the "picture frame window" serial number, so I don't know if that was the cut off for the "US" S/N.
IIRC the US suffix was for PD guns as I have a Gen2 G-22 AZR***US that was sent to Columbia SC PD (gun is 1994 mfg) and I have two Gen2 23s (5/95 and 4/97 mfg) that do not have the US suffix.
This wasn't a PD gun either. There's no box or other stuff, just the pistol and 2 magazines. I don't know what color label may have been on it originally.
Yeah. My gen2 19 was listed as my one of backups for work and I always listed the US as part of my serial number.
A few of our older guns have the US as well. Most of us are retiring our older backups and getting new guns. Working on a policy now where we are allowed to buy one gun on uniform allowance instead of uniforms. Don't need new clothes every year. .
