TL: Polish Radom; BL Browning Model 1910 or earlier. How far off am I?

Correct on both counts. The polish pistol is a vis p35 commonly referred to as a radom. The little browning is a design of the 10 called a m1922. The son and I are trying to get one pistol from each occupied country. Belgium is represented twice but the hi power will leave my clutches when I leave earth!

OK here's a story to make you shudder. A friend's father told me the story of how at the end of the war in Europe, he and another soldier in his squad ( in 26th Infantry Division) tried to collect one of every kind of pistol they saw and had a pact that when either one of them found something, he would get two if possible and share. They had a nice collection going of about 20 or more types of pistols when the word came down that they could only have (and take home) one pistol. They didn't want the REMFs to have them ( I know, they could have traded them for something) So they sat on a curb in a German city and broke the pistols up on the pavement, disposing of the wreckage down a storm sewer. He kept a Luger, which my friend and I used to shoot in high school( it was later stolen by druggies from Muskogee).
