Highly Prized Gun found (Polish 1911)

[willyfog1938]

Hi all

Brand new episode from our metal detecting channel is online. We found a lot of stuff and two lovely guns! The polish made "Radom" - FB Vis - Pistole 35(p) witch was personalised by a german soldier and just a step from it there was another gun - a small belgian Bull Dog revolver. This month we found a lot of guns. Really nice end of the year

Link to the video here (I will upload a photo soon)

I haven't seen a TID for "guns". ��

 

[RustyGold]

Just a "really cool find"!

 

[Bayard]

The Radom is a very robust and over engineered pistol. A good cleaning and the replacement of any springs destroyed by rust would probably make it functional again.

I strongly suspect that the small revolver is Belgian, not British.

 

[willyfog1938]

Yes, its true it a Belgian, not British. I made mistake, sorry and thanks!

Pretty sure that is a Takarov, pretty cool find and in good shape for a ground find.

I like the custom "1943" grips.

It is a 35 Vis (Radom is where the factory was located) with that safety on the left side of the slide and the tell-tale wised at the base grip.
