I just picked up a Z-block, two lever Vis 35. There was an extraordinary article recently written about these pistols, you can check it out here: (go to page 75) http://www.nxtbook.com/nxtbooks/nra/ar_201609/#/76
Anyway, this is a typical type 3 pistol with the takedown lever eliminated. Waa623 on the slide so this pistol was finished/assembled by SDP. The bore is rough, it's been neglected, but it's far from lifeless. All serials are matching and I had a blast torching some rounds through it yesterday. It was fun stacking the Radom next to a 1911 and seeing/feeling how the former emulated the latter. Enjoy some pics and, as always, thanks for looking 8)

Grips look new... Must be a fugazi.
The grips are good.
I was JK!
You really getting into these axis pistolas huh....
I love those trapezoidal grips and the art deco look. It should go well with your G29/40 thumb1
What WaA is on the M1911? chuckles1
Neat stuff! thumb1 How much force does it take to compress the second lever at the back of the grips? Does a standard hold on the weapon do it or do you have to really squeeze?
Turn the grips upside down and they look like Chinese arsenal stamps! /510\ & /83\ chuckles1
