It came with a single magazine, with a capacity of 8 +1 rounds.It has a dark rust blued finish, but the surface is rough low polished and there are some production marks, a plus a little pitting and minor wear.Hello - I have a FB Radom VIS Mod 35 pat. There’s also a touch of the Spanish Ruby.It takes a 9mm Parabellum or Luger round. It’s design was “influenced” by John Browning’s 1911 and Hi Power designs. RADOM VIS Mod.35.Pat.Nr.15567 per the slide marking the left side. All of these seem to be three lever pistols, so 1940ish perhaps S.This is a picture of a F.B. Gents, Do we know when the Radom Model 35 pistols with E prefix serial numbers (with WaA77) were manufactured The early E prefix pistols seem to be mixed into those with shoulder stock cuts while later ones without cuts still have slide legends without the added P.35 (p) markings.Jump to navigationJump to search. Fb Radom Vis Model 35 Serial Numbers. I was wondering if anyone could give me a rough idea of when it was made and educate me on this gun./ATTACHThe serial number (16663) is located on the right side of the frame above the trigger.
![]() Fb Radom Vis Model 35 S Plus A LittleF B Radom Model 35They’re called Waffenamt acceptance marks, indicating that they had been inspected (proofed) and fired by Inspector 626. These stamps were also found on the barrel, which was also marked with the last three numbers of the serial number. When the Russian Army took Radom they burned the plant, in 1945.The slide marking identifying the make and manufacturer is accompanied by a Nazi Eagle over a Swastika and a Eagle over 623 Stamp, with no WaA. By August 1944 production had moved to Austria. So production at Radom has been increased and standards lowered. There had been an uprising in the Warsaw Ghetto. Based upon its condition and the markings it was reasonable at $460.00.Some of these especially the original Polish ones and specific later models bring a pretty price.Here’s an interesting link to some more history on the VIS-35 Polish Radom Pistol. They are rare, since most wound up on the bottom of the Atlantic.I acquire this one through a private sale and have no available history as to how it wound up in America. Since this one was made in 1943, 71 years ago, history has faded away.The German Radom Model 35’s were issued to SS, Paratroopers and Police (The Secret Gestapo Kind) who participated in some rather nasty atrocities during the war.Some were specially produced and marked as Mariner Models they were issued to “U” Boat types. Some folks contend that later the barrels were only being made at the plant in Austria and that when they received the lowers from Poland they were accepted and proofed there. 626’s stamp under an eagle is also on the magazine. Several Radoms were produced in.45 ACP Caliber and even the odd.22LR caliber.The earlier models had three levers, one which was a take down lever.In the two lever models the Decocker lever is used also as a disassembly tool to lock the slide back on a notch in the hammer. Originally the Polish Military was considering acquisition of a.308 caliber semiautomatic designed by FN. So that remains to be seen.Part of the test firing requirements for the ammunition back in the day for acceptance of use by military personnel was that it be capable of penetrating the standard steel helmet worn by opposing military forces. Some folks have reported that they have had problems, since apparently back in the war the 9mm rounds had more velocity than todays modern manufactured ammunition.Which resulted in their having to use close to +P ammunition to get it to work right. I spent some time doing the research and during the disassembly confirmed early reports that the spring in this puppy is a real bear. I bought it from a gunsmith and it's sound. The earlier versions of this pistol were rated as superior and renown for their quality and handling. Yesterday and today I've been dealing with some icky type flu. It was loads of 'fun'.So I'm really going to put a few down range with her when I get to feeling better. The guide rod has to be pulled forward and held, I used a cord to pull it forward and then reinserted the slide latch. Then pull and hold the guide rod (under the barrel) forward, the slide latch is then pulled out from the left side.When reassembling the slide, with the barrel and internal parts inserted, the slide goes back on and gets locked into place at the rear by using the lever. ![]() If you fired one in a pistol there would be damage.So it must have been a hot load. “Achtung For Submachine Use Only” boxes contained 64 rounds, with a blackened cases and round bullets. “Service Loads for Pistols” marked boxes contained 16 rounds, with a rounded bullet and brass case that were for P-38, Hi-Powers, Radoms and other weapons being manufactured in occupied countries. It was 16 sharp pointed bullets in a brass case. Microsoft word for mac 2011 run time error 13 type mismatchThe eagle could have been engraved or etched, I think the latter.Genuine? I think it is a fake, although it is certainly be a bold and innovative one. Then the legend was added back (perhaps hand stamped using a jig) and the rather improbable name added using the same stamp set. I think that was done in this case. Note that the original markings are shallow and easily removed along with the slide acceptance WaA 77 markings normally present. The Radom slide marking is the same as used in most German production, but the lettering is larger and is of a different font. Like the Japanese with their Last Ditch Arisaka Rifles and Nambu Pistols production, standards got tossed out the window.I’m just going to have to wait and see how this old gal handles modern 9mm.Yes, that is a decocker, which is designed to allow the hammer to be lowered in safety, but that lever that looks like the safety of a Model 1911 is not a safety it merely locks the slide back for disassembly.Now that gun.

(Apparently there was no 'L' in the second alphabet series - the war ended before 'L' was reached.) The WaffenAmt markings are normal, along with the marking of the German designation of the pistol, P.35(p) the small 'p' stands for Polnisch, the German word for Polish.Taking another look at that fake 'Hitler' Radom, I note that the second line is pantographed, yet another strike against authenticity.Jim.The Firearms Forum is on online community for all gun enthusiasts. That gun seems to be in the L serial numbers of the first alphabet series, probably made in 1941. There were, unfortunately, millions of SS members, and thousands had their names put on guns.Of course, in this case, the gun was state property, accepted by the Army, and not something an SS member would normally play with.Again, I think it is a fake.Jim. Even if it were genuine, it would not be especially valuable. Support the site!We work hard to bring the best Firearms Forum has to offer! Unlock additional features, and fewer ads while browsing.
