Glock G26 serial number ending with "US"

[subman681]

I've just obtained a Glock G-26 (third generation) and noticed that the serial number has "US" at the end of the normal three letters/three numbers (i.e., ABC123US).

This appears only on the metal tab forward of the trigger guard. The "US" doesn't appear after the serial number on either the barrel or slide.

Does anyone know anything about this?

Thank you for any information. SUBMAN681

What do Glock serial numbers mean?
Glock started with serial number "AA000". The serial numbers went up to "AA999" and then rolled over to "AB000", etc. Once they reached "ZZ999", it rolled over to "AAA000", and so on. Pistols imported into the United States have a "US" on the end of the serial number on the frame.

Imported in as a complete gun.

Yes, because correct me if I'm wrong but aren't alot or most Glocks shipped here as parts and then assembled in Gerogia?

I believe they come in as "parts" and then they are mated together.
