I bought a Glock-17 the other day and I was wondering what the AT stands for and the pentagon with a dot in the middle this is all on the barrel. Wondering if someone knows what it means???

Austria not sure about the other symbol

I emailed my instructor. Let's see what GLOCK says...

Unconfirmed, but I've been told it's just part of the proof marking and signifies a polygonal rifling either hexagonal or octagonal.

I've not been able to get anyone who knew why some have a dot inside and some don't..............

It's confusing I would like to know what it means cause my glock 22 don't have the AT but has the pentagon

It's the proof marks from Glock to prove that it meets the Austrian standards of 175% max load!

"AT represents made in Austria. The Pentagon symbol represents the grade of barrel steel."

Ah ok I guess its a great grade being a pentagon with a dot in the middle

From what I've heard the pentagon symbol signifies the grade of steel that the barrel is made out of. In my experience, the old black-coated barrels that had a regular pentagon were a softer steel than the new gray-coated barrels which have the "dotted" pentagon.
