Mine is DPxxx was probably in the same batch as yours. My serial number is about twenty numbers lower than yours. I carry and shoot mine.

Your picture looks like it has some holster wear so I don’t think carrying and shooting it will be a problem.

Very cool! Does yours have the STT date code? Would like to compare notes. Mine has a very tight lock-up when I push down on the barrel hood, like quality craftsmanship compared to other Gen 2’s I’ve messed with.

The other issue, mine was ‘upgraded’ unfortunately. Some knucklehead put in a standard trigger serrated trigger bar. Ours need part 1293 trigger bar for pre-EH Glock 19’s. I got this bar in the mail today (has a + on top of the cruciform). My sear engagement was about 1/3rd. Now it is pretty close to 2/3, maybe a hair under.

Noticed any quirks with yours? Like you say, I’m sure they came off the same production line. Would like to see a pic if you get a chance.

Mine doesn’t have a date code on the barrel. That’s what prompted me to call Glock in the first place. All it has on the barrel is the Glock logo and a pentagon. I emailed Glock a picture of it and they said it is a Glock OEM barrel, but they have no record of replacing the barrel.

Weird! Does yours have a SN on the barre?

Nope...

WAG: barrel on your Gen2 G19 has to be a later replacement. Period barrel for Austria proof-marked gen1 & gen2 GLOCKs do not have a GLOCK logo and pentagon mark. Those came much later. Still, strange that the barrel does not have normal SN nor L SN.

Which is why I called Glock and asked about it. Both of my Gen-1’s have all the numbers and markings. The slide and frame numbers match. I sent Glock an email with photos and they said it was a factory barrel but they have no record of it being replaced.

The No-SN barrel is pretty neat/unusual itself!

I’m still curious. I’d like to know more about it, but Glock told me as much as they did you. The guy I bought it from didn’t know anything about it. He wasn’t a “Glock guy” and actually thought he had a gen-3. I told him it was a two and he shrugged his shoulders a little and asked if I still wanted to buy it.
