i actually have a 3rd gen Glock 21 that is Austrian Proofed, meaning that it was built and test fired (proofed) in Austria and inported into the states as a complete gun, not as parts. 98%+ G21's here in the states are built and test fired in Symrna GA.
look at the barrel and slide. if it has a Glock G then it was built in the states. if it has the Austrian Code of Arms like this picture
then it was proofed in Austria. some early 1st gens were built in Austria.

Yeah Ben I know, just saying if its good enough for them ots good enough for me. SO much more involved in a kb then just the chamber. Not a single account were oner charged brass, defective brass, or stressed brass from to much reloading was not the cause. I dod cut down the amount of times I can reload my brass (going for one reload tops now) but oh well, I love my gun.
i'm sorry and hate to bust your bubble but if it is a "standard FBI issue gun" it is no more special than one that you can go to any Glock stocking dealer and purchase. there is no difference in State Patorl, FBI Secret Service, DNR, local PD or Renta Cop issue guns. it is a flawed design where it was originally a 9mm design converted to 40cal and over time a failure can happen due to the lack of support and the thin metal around the chamber. IF i were going to buy another 40cal it wouldn't be a Glock.

Steph bought some night sights for me for X-Mas! I've never been fond of the factory GLOCK sights I like 3 dots better and the extra benefit of the glow at night is a HUGE plus!
Not my pic but same sights.
Stock crappy sights.
