F.B. RADOM Model 35

History and provenance

This F.B. RADOM Model 35 is an original WWII-era Polish VIS pistol produced under German occupation. It bears authentic Waffenamt acceptance eagles (WaA) on the slide and frame and shows German-occupation serial patterns alongside Polish FB Radom factory roll marks where appropriate for the production block. Those markings make it a clear representation of German-controlled production and an important artifact for collectors of WWII European sidearms and German-marked pistols.

Technical details and condition

Action, caliber, and performance

The pistol is a single-action, semi-automatic chambered in 9mm. The 9mm chambering makes it practical for display, inert-firing demonstrations, or range use where legal and safe; its widely available ammunition and proven ballistics are well understood by shooters and historians alike. The bore is bright with strong rifling, indicating good internal condition despite exterior wear.

Finish, grips, and markings

The finish is the original wartime surface showing honest service wear and some surface pitting consistent with age and use. Original grips remain fitted. Collectors should note the presence of Waffenamt acceptance eagles and the German-era serial patterns — these features significantly influence historical value and provenance.

Price for this historically significant piece is listed at $1300.99 in the Semi Auto category. View product details and pricing
