Radom Vis 35 Serial Number Search Engine
I hope someone has some info about this gun. I will try to get the pics up within the next week or so.Anyway it has the standard 'FB Radom VIS mod 35.Pat.Nr.15567' markings on the slide. It also has the decocker, takedown lever thing, and the shoulder stock slot.The only other marks it has are some import marks on the side of the trigger guard but they are very hard to make out.I doubt the serial number will help with the date as it is '00000'.Any idea why that would be the serial number? Every other one I have seen has a letter and four numbers.The finish is about 95% on it and is original.
It is currently being held on bail for the next month while these stupid 30 days pass. (Just started a Dros and this happened to be in the same dealer's inventory)Mike. If you are a Polak, (from your screen name) you should know about firearm history of your country.
I am Ukrainian and I know this much about it. Your VIS 'Radom' was designed based on the John M.
Browning M1911. It was the standard pistol of the Polish Military prior to WWII. The one's manufactured for the Polish Army from 1935 to 1939, had a much higher quality than the later one's made for the Nazis. When the Nazis invaded Poland in September, 1939, they took over the manufacture of the VIS and issued it as a secondary firearm for the Nazi Army. If your's bears a Waffenampt (German acceptance mark), it was made sometime between late 1939 and early 1945.
The caliber is standard 9mm (Luger/Parabellum).Vasiliy. If you are a Polak, (from your screen name) you should know about firearm history of your country.
