Different 'experts' have different methods of defining the grades. It is what it is. Yours is at the better end of the spectrum especially if those marks are not German. The P.35(p) makes it definitely German, along with confirmed Waffenants.
There is the Spread wings with the WaA 77 underneath. There is also the P.35(p) on it so I assume it is certainly German. It does seem to also have the Polish Crest, maybe, I am not sure exactly what it is see pic #2. These are stamped after the pat. number. The pistol does also have the sholder stock slot, so maybe the pistol had just rolled of the line when the Germans came in and they just stamped it with the waffenant??
Radom P35 Serial Production Date Chart
Radom Vis 35 Serial Numbers
Hi Guys, sorry to but in. I have a dilemma, I just took possession of a Radom Vis 35 P35(p) according to the description; take down latch, decocker, slot for extended stock, it has the waffenamps marking, WaA77. This tells me it is a Grade I (type I) first series of Radom made during the German occupation 1939-1940. The magazine on this pistol has an etched serial number on it. A Russian capture of a weapon does add a unique history to the firearm, but at the same time it does hurt its monetary value to collectors. Still, any Radom VIS 35 pistol collection would not be complete without one of. As far as the serial number goes its a mystrey. Serial numbers are in blocks of 10,000 with alphabetic prefix (there are no I, O, Q V, X or Y blocks known) Total production Poles: 18,000 German Army 313,000 Kreigsmarine 1,000 with E/M and N property number.
