Early Radom VIS 3 lever slotted B block

Here is a nice example that I picked up on GB for a good price. It’s nice to know they’re still good buys to be had occasionally when you stay after it…. The photos were not real good and the seller only showed one photo of the 6 places where these Nazi occupation pistols were numbered and that was the frame, the only numbers that are available without disassembly. I took kind of a gamble that it would be matching…. I liked the honest wear that I could see and the pistol just looked right. I got it all apart and everything is numbers matching. I used to own a pretty nice early slotted a block that I ended up using as a trade piece in a deal on a sweet rifle with another member here. I have been on the hunt for a pre alpha, a or b block VIS ever since letting that pistol go. I go back and forth as to whether Nazi marked FN high powers or these Nazi marked Radom VIS are my favorite pistol of WW2. I am happy to own this one…

Excellent pickup Jory. You nabbed it at a good price. Just goes to show how lighting makes a difference in overall appearance. It is amazing how different it looks in your photos vs the sellers listing.
