The '''Pistolet WZ. 35 VIS''' (aka RADOM) is a high end semiautomatic pistol developed and built by Poland prior to the years of World War II. When the Germans invaded, they took the tooling and moved it to the Steyr plant where they continued the production and issue the same pistol to their own troops.  Many English and American Gun sources refer to the pistol as the "Polish '''RADOM''' Pistol" primarily because it was designed and built initially at the state armory in ''Radom'', Poland, however this designation is '''not recognized''' by other European sources and most importantly, the Poles themselves don't call their own handgun 'Radom'.  However, its moniker as the "Radom Pistol" is so widespread, that it is necessary to list it in the title for search purposes.
The '''Vis wz. 35''' (Vis meanig "''force''" in Latin) is a high-end semiautomatic pistol developed and built by Poland prior to World War II. Its designers, Piotr Wilniewczyc and Jan Skrzypinski, took their inspiration from John Moses Browning's [[M1911]] pistol. In 1935, the pistol was adopted as a standard handgun in the Polish Army and sent to production in [[Fabryka Broni Radom]] - state armory in the city of Radom, Poland. After the German invasion in 1939, the Germans continued production of Vis pistols and issued it to their own troops, as the '''Pistole P35(p)'''. They also decided to move barrel production to the [[Steyr]] plant in Austria, with plans to make whole pistols there, because Radom's workers were known to make guns for the Polish resistance.


'''The Polish Pistolet WZ. 35 VIS pistol has been seen in the following''':
In American and English sources, this pistol is widely known as the '''Radom''', named after its place of birth. This moniker is ''not'' used by other European sources, most importantly the Polish sources.

Vis wz. 35 - 9x19mm - Right side

The Vis wz. 35 (Vis meanig "force" in Latin) is a high-end semiautomatic pistol developed and built by Poland prior to World War II. Its designers, Piotr Wilniewczyc and Jan Skrzypinski, took their inspiration from John Moses Browning's M1911 pistol. In 1935, the pistol was adopted as a standard handgun in the Polish Army and sent to production in Fabryka Broni Radom - state armory in the city of Radom, Poland. After the German invasion in 1939, the Germans continued production of Vis pistols and issued it to their own troops, as the Pistole P35(p). They also decided to move barrel production to the Steyr plant in Austria, with plans to make whole pistols there, because Radom's workers were known to make guns for the Polish resistance.

In American and English sources, this pistol is widely known as the Radom, named after its place of birth. This moniker is not used by other European sources, most importantly the Polish sources.
