Serial Number - DOM Lookup?

Hi, I've been searching online and so forth, and from what I can tell, there is NOT a lookup or reference for determining DOM based on S/N, correct?

I know there is some stuff in collectors forum but I think that applies to Gen 1 & 2, not Gen 3 (and I can't quite determine if that even applies to S/N or barrel proof marks in the first place).

Call Glock I assume? Does Glock US have the ability to tell me DOM for Austrian made Glocks as well?

Thanks

Edit: Glock turned around the request via email in about 5 minutes.

Nevermind!

I've done it twice and had a reply within a day
Yeah I just bought a used LEO trade in Gen 3 (just want a spare frame) and when I inspected yesterday to start DROS I forgot to check something; got paranoid that maybe it was so old it was one of those 2-pin Gen 3s and didn't notice. However DOM is 2014 so I'm good to go. Frame was in really good shape so it seemed unlikely but it was gonna bug me until I got the answer.

Would a 2-pin spare frame be a deal breaker? Not necessarily but I was more concerned that my spare frame was 2001 vintage or something. Also I'd feel compelled to get a spare locking block for it and 2-pin locking blocks for those models are pretty scarce. It's all kinda ridiculous anyway because it's unlikely I'll ever need the spare frame anyway, much less need a spare locking block for my spare frame.
