I just learned that Glock is producing and selling "Made in the USA" pistols from a new plant in Georgia

Are the frames themselves made in the U.S., or is it just the slide?

I believe it is 100% made in the USA, including the frame.

I wouldn't be in the least bit surprised if this was to get around the UN arms trade treaty nonsense. If it's made in the US and sold in the US, then the UN treaty cannot regulate it under the international trade provisions.

Does Glock know something we don't? Or just covering their bases?

This is the first thing I thought when I saw this thread. So are we now going to start talking about Austria- or USA-made Glocks in the classifieds or IF something were to get signed, pre- and post-treaty Glocks?
