Introducing the VIS Model 35, a historic semi-auto pistol manufactured by FB RADOM. This Grade 2 sub-model, chambered in 9mm Luger, is a treasure from the World War II era, with the added charm of what looks to be the Reich mark on the left side of the slide. In good overall condition, it bears the patina of time and historical events, with handling marks scattered across its blued finish. Despite its age, this pistol has been well-maintained, evidenced by the good condition of the bore and its well-defined rifling.
The VIS Model 35 is an intriguing blend of history and functionality. Its design and operation are heavily influenced by the American M1911, yet with a unique European touch.

The pistol is fitted with a black synthetic grip, adorned with checkering and the FB logo, providing a firm and comfortable hold. It comes equipped with a ramped front blade and dovetail rear with a V notch, enhancing precision in aiming.
The package includes one 8-round magazine.
