Hello,
1st timer here.
Trying to find the value of a F.P.RADOM VIS Mod.35 9mm, fair condition.
My Father brought it home from WW2.
Anyone have an opinion or no where I can get an opinion?

One of the best-designed 9mm pistols of WWII. Not very common but they turn up occasionally on the auctions sites.

A Radom in good condition can run nearly a grand to over a grand USD.

Radom pistols run from 150 up, Mainly depends on DATE,Model, whether Type I ,II Or III, slotted or Not, Nazi, Polish Eagle, Polish Eagle Nazi Capture, or Type III Parkerized with wood grips and Blued small Parts and what acceptance proofs are on the piece...Without this info, Nobody can give you an accurate appraisal...
1937 is the scarcest date,1936 is the second scarcest...
Condition also determines value....

One more FYI

The Poles pronounce this gun ray-DOM. Many times I've heard it pronounced like it rhymes with "ate 'em".
