Random semi Auto 1938P
VIS WZ 35 POLISH Prewar Issue, military
Description: From Estate, 45 years in my possesion, has Polish Eagle, Slotted rear, ser #25992 Fired once, loads and ejects perfect, easy trigger pull, nice shooter and collector piece. Black VIS Grips are perfect. Information The pistol bears many internal and external similarities to the famous Colt M1911A1, to the point that some parts are almost interchangeable (i.e. frame, main spring, trigger, screws in the exact same places and kept in the same (non-metric) diameter etc. Some could argue, that the design was generally based on American firearms inventor John Browning's Browning Hi-Power, as adapted by Piotr Wilniewczyc and Jan Skrzypi?ski [pl] in 1930 at the Fabryka Broni (Arms Factory) in Radom under Director Kazimierz O?dakowski. But the Colt M1911 resemblance is much more striking. It operated on the short-recoil principle, with the barrel being cammed down and away from the locking lugs in the slide. This later John Moses Browning design, unlike the M1911, was not cammed by a link, but by a ledge of sorts, which contacts a portion of the barrel and forces it down as it is moved rearward with the slide by the recoil force. It shares some similarities to the Spanish Ruby .45 ACP.[4] Like the 9mm Browning GP, a characteristic feature was a trapezoid grip shape, wider at the bottom, offering good ergonomics and firm grip. On the right side grip cover, the Polish copy pistol had letters VIS in a triangle, on the left side—FB (for Fabryka Broni—"Arms Factory"). The handgun was prepared in late 1930, and at the beginning of 1931 the first pistols were ready for testing. Initially it was named WiS (an acronym of the Polish designers' names), later the name was changed to Vis, meaning "force" in Latin, with the wz. abbreviation for wzór ("model").[5] The tests proved that the handgun was very accurate and stable (due to its size and mass, most stresses are absorbed and not passed on the shooter), while at the same time remaining reliable after firing more than 6,000 rounds.[1] The Vis was generally regarded as one of the best military pistols of that period. Production started in the state armory Fabryka Broni in Radom in late 1935, and the following year it was introduced as the standard weapon of Polish infantry and cavalry officers. Successively, other units were to be equipped, and by 1942 all other handguns were scheduled to be withdrawn from service. By mid-1938, it was introduced to the armored and air forces. Before the invasion of Poland, approximately 49,400 (out of 90,000 ordered) were delivered to the Polish army. Vey nice, clean well balanced, has one box of 9mm luger rounds go with the pistol. Located in NE, Pennsylvania, will ship from a FFL or you pick it up. Pricing is based upon going on line and viewing similar Radon, Since this has the Polish Eagle I cannot tell the Date. Looks and feels like rarely used pistol.As it is pre Nazi, it is considerered to be of a better build than the NAZI war models. (wilkepedia) So I am asking reasonable price based upon research, may be you will make a offer.and I will await a few days or to see what it will bring. I am a interested seller...Please call, or contact, and we can discuss, also have Broom Handle and a Colt 45 with a super 38 barrel.. call me.
