Just bought a Glock 19 gen 4 and didn't come with a spent casing  in a envelope, did they stop  sending with date on the envelope?

Yes.  I got a FDE Gen3 G19 a couple of months ago and it did not have the envelope with the casing in it.

I think Glock stopped doing that, my last purchase came with a spent casing but that was probably a year and a half ago. A lot of people here have said the same thing.

What is one casing going to do for you. It's when you go to the range and shoot fifty that you will know if the gun works :).

Maybe the tester swallowed it when it flew back at his face?

The casing in envelope thing was a left over from when the state's of Maryland and New York required each new gun sold to have a case submitted to the state to create a database for solving crimes. Not surprisingly after a number of years and millions spent they figured out it was not solving any crimes and both states abolished the practice. So there is no longer a need to waste money at the factory on this. Might only cost five cents per gun., but multiplied by tens of thousands it does add up

A lot of us liked getting them since they basically acted as a born on date for the gun.
