Radom Vis 35 Value Series Production Started

The wz designation being used with all Polish arms, standing for wzГіr (model).At the time, the VIS was generally regarded as one of the best military pistols available when series production started at the State Armory in Radom in late 1935, while the following year it was adopted as the standard weapon of Polish infantry and cavalry officers. Originally referred to as the WiS (an acronym of the Polish designers' names), the pistol was renamed VIS, meaning 'power' in Latin. 35 VIS was first tested in 1931 in Poland.

Approximately 400,000Source.

Generally, the wartime German-produced VIS pistols were of much lower quality than the pre-war Polish made guns. As a result, resistance forces were obliged to manufacture crude barrels in underground shops - ultimately several hundred VIS pistols were smuggled from the factory, fitted with barrels, and provided to the Home Army for use in the Warsaw Uprising.In 1944 as German forces were in retreat to the advancing Soviets, all production was moved to the Steyr works in Austria where the VIS remained in production until April 1945.Pistols made after 1939 (under German occupation) were manufactured in three distinct variations, each with small modifications to simplify production. Up to 1945, between 312,000 and 380,000 were produced for the German Reich, where they were issued primarily to the SS, the Fallschimjager (paratroopers) and police.Soon after occupation of factory, the Germans moved production of P35(p) barrels to the Steyr works in Austria in an effort to prevent complete pistols from falling into the hands of the Polish resistance. After the Polish defeat that same year, the Germans took over the Radom factory and continued production of the gun, assigning it the standardized name of 9 mm Pistole 645(p) which is often referred to as the P 35(p).

Some Polish references call these two 'pre-war' versions 'Group One.'The guns bearing a single line rollstamp on the slide without the Polish eagle was manufactured during the period of Nazi occupation. These Radoms are commonly referred to as 'Polish Eagle' or 'Polish Eagle, Nazi capture'. The same gun with legitimate German markings added (indicating it was captured at the factory or depot level) can bring even more, if in top condition.

Instead of using the lever to lock back the slide for disassembly, the decocker is pushed down so its tail rests in a notch in the hammer. The depicted pistol is a Type II.Type III (Group 4) pistols have the takedown lever eliminated. These also have the mainspring housing milled for a shoulder stock which, to the best of my knowledge, was never issued in service.Type II (Group 3) pistols have the shoulder stock cut eliminated and some other changes, including elimination of the grip screw bushings.

The BNZ code (as used on Steyr made K98k rifles) was only applied to less than 1000 pistols while the machinery used for slide rollstamp was undergoing installation at the Steyr Works. Fully Steyr-produced guns are rarer and more valuable than production at Radom under Nazi occupation, and a few VERY rare pieces marked with the 'BNZ' in lieu of the Radom rollstamp are worth even more. Most of this late-war Steyr production run was issued with crude wooden grips. Type II and III guns are by far the most commonly encountered variants, though Type II, being better made, are generally more sought after.After the Soviets over-ran the Radom factory, Type III Radom production was moved completely to the Steyr works in Austria.
