Re: Pistol of the Week Vis (Polish designation pistolet wz. 35 Vis, German designation 9 mm Pistole 35(p), often called incorrectly Radom in English sources) is a 9 mm caliber, single-action, semi-automatic pistol. Originally designed by Piotr Wilniewczyc and Jan Skrzypiński in 1930 at the Fabryka Broni in Radom under Director Kazimierz Rawicz-Oldakowski, it was adopted in 1935 as the standard handgun of the Polish Army. Considered by many to be one of the finest handguns ever produced, it is highly prized among collectors of firearms.[1] I cheated, Google is my friend!

Re: Pistol of the Week Hey Luft, I've been looking around at colts since we last communicated. These old Colts are commanding serious money. I started missing an old 1970's 6" royal blue Python and a 70's Custom Combat Commander I had once. The prices on these things are really up there! Sh!t, I have a three way Colt ingraved flat disk type screwdriver that's selling for $50. I think you got a better deal then I even thought on that MKIV 70 series. That gun alone was probably worth what you paid for all three. Getting the Colt bug here.:bear_w00t: http://www.coltcollectibles.com/images/35893159_o.jpg

I thought Polish pistols had the barrel pointing the other way? Like so - http://i73.photobucket.com/albums/i2...70/monroy1.jpg http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3042/...f64d85.jpg?v=0
