"Tip of the iceburg" "Radoms"

[Blind Hog]

Some pictures of my VIS35/P.35(p) "Radom" collection from a SCACA show. It would take up to much band width to show the whole thing, so here are just a few. This was something like eighty or so pistols and accessories on display. Representing an example of nearly all the known variations and an example of all the serial prefixes through the entire series of production.

I kinda promised the DOG not to post on the "Radoms", but I just gots to do it. :devil-smiley-1:

Thank you, they are quite interesting pistols. Here are clearer examples of the pre-war Polish production and German occupation production.

VIS35 dated 1938 and it's issue holster and reserve magazines.

Beautiful display. What is the history of the pistol? Looks very similar to the Colt M1911. I have never seen a VIS35 in person, guess I better start looking.

I've seen his displays at the shows and it will blow you away.You can spend a whole day just looking at his display and having "Blind Hog" educate you on them.
I speculate he could take up a whole show hall if he displayed all of his weapons at one time.

Great post and pictures as usual Francis. I cannot wait to see your next travelling road show {when will that be?}. I am hoping to be at the next show in Greenville.

Got Radom? :grinning-thumbsup:
