RADOM P-35 Info??? Check your serial number to know when it was made and the quality. My slide is stamped F B RADOM VIS Mod.35Pat.Nr15567 and below P.35(p).

Diffenitly a early German P35(p). C Kurtzmann Piano Serial Number. If I read the marking on the trigger guard correctly and that's a 'M' under the eagle then its a Kreigsmarine issue. Most Kreigsmarine stamped guns are on the bottom of the Atlantic! I don't have my references handy (I'm away from home as usual) but will check when I get home. Is there anyone here that has a copy of 'Axis Pistols of WWII'? (red hard bound cover). There are some excellent photos of the P35(p) in there along with production runs, variants, etc.
