If in the future I decide to move to the USA and take this gun with me, will this gun, which is manufactured in the USA (not Austria like Glock), and customized in the USA by an American gunsmith require stampings that may significantly decrease the value of the pistol?? Or are their provisions for such markings to be more inconspicuous, example on grip frame underneath wooden grip or perhaps laser engraved on bottom of mainspring housing, or perhaps bottom of dust cover due to the unusual value of the pistol??? Basically, does a USA manufactured gun that goes to Canada and then back require import markings???
