There is the familiar NPv (Nitro Proof Vienna), followed by GOM. I presume this is a coded date of proof (started from c. 1983). So what is the meaning of GOM? Thanks. With kind regards, Jani

Jani:
Is it on the water table, flats or tubes? If on the tubes I'd guess it was initials? Can you email me an image?
Kind Regards,

Jani: The internet is just amazing as you can throw an electronic baseball from where you are to where I am. I can catch it and have a gander in just minutes. For now I just don't know. But I don't think it to be a datastring. I think I've seen the "GOM" stamp on a Heinrich Scherping tube. Maybe M4 will chime in from his boat ride. Kind Regards, Raimey rse

Jani: You very well may be correct and it is a date code. Let me check a few more Glocks and see if I can figure it out.
Kind Regards,

Found it.
G = July O = 0 M = 5
Ergo: July 2005 (date of proof)
With kind regards, Jani

Ah, you beat me to the punch. I had the July figured out but how does the O equate to a 0(zero)?
Kind Regards,

Raimey, I've found the explanation on a Glock forum, dating back to 2005. With kind regards, Jani
