Firstly Cool review!! 👍 massive thank you for that. I am Polish and I can assure you on 💯% that our government did not put any sanctions or restrictions on US citizen willing to visit our country. I am sure it was due to stupid c19 policies but they are gone. With imports I think is the US side that protects its own market rather than polish side that willing to export they own products makes things difficult especially if it comes to gun's...due to more restrict gun ownership law in Poland and population size I am sure that more Americans can purchese this gun in US than Poles in Poland. I don't know how expensive are comparable guns in US but in Poland ViS100 cost 4200zl around 1000USD so about the same as you mentioned it cost in the US. HK USP 9mm 3750zl 850USD Walter PDP Pro 9mm 5300zl around 1250USD I think they are all in similar price range due to taxes etc and in general guns made in US are much cheaper to Americans. Regards
I love DA/SA guns. Thanks for showing us this one. I like the looks, but have rather large hands, and the grip looked a little too small for me. If one should ever come to a rental range near me, I will definitely try it out. I recently acquired a HK P30 L, and love the grip feel. I haven’t tried it at the range, but the DA/SA action feel is great.
@GBGuns Thanks! After a long period of "analysis paralysis," I'm moving ahead with getting a Zero 2. I'm disappointed that the OR version still hasn't hit the market. And have some concerns that the 3rd parties for Global Ordnance no longer have the Zero2 on their pricing sheets. But it would be better to have a solid platform and build on it. Rather than get burned by ATF import shenanigans and the war in Ukraine, keeping the pistol out of the market altogether.
@@bagel411 I had intended that our trip this month include visiting Arex, but Teya wanted to actual vacation time so we dropped visiting Slovenia to see Vienna for a few days. From what I've heard (in general, not any specific models or manufacturers) the ATF has been absurdly slow lately in approving models for importation and then not letting companies know on top of that.
@GBGuns I appreciate the info. With that said. I'm just some dude on the internet. One customer out of thousands. As a human being, I'm much happier you and Teya got some vacation time in! Just the snippets you've put out there, it seems like it has been a stressful year. Enjoy the intangibles! Make sure you find time for each other.
As you know, it's always been a passion and specialty of mine to cover things that are different. Plus, we refuse payment and so that knocks out some of the big companies that rely on bought reviews! :p
Thanks for the video. Nice gun, but a price point a bit high. Likely will go with a CZ instead and keep my VIS 35 as an example of a Polish gun. As far as the comment about Poland flipping from ally, the only time in history that has occurred was during the Cold War era, which without going into a history rant, was not by our choice. Poland has been a US ally since before US even existed - see Kościuszko, Pulaski… We are and always will be allies unless Poland gets taken over by Russia or China in the future.
Graham, Please consider going to the range early, as in this video, regularly. Notwithstanding the long shadows and harsh light, I must say that I particularly enjoyed today's shoot! No struggling to understand you over the din of other shooters at the range. Great and ENJOYABLE video!
Really like this gun. I'm a Hi Power guy from the start and the Vis 100 is slightly lighter but much the same size and was at least as accurate as the Hi Power. Certainly fewer holster options, but I'm impressed, overall.
Just a few remarks on the Poland-USA relationships:) The situation is as simple as this: if the US president is a democrat then US policy is more towards sort of withdrawing from Europe and allowing the Germans to shape the european policy according to their will and in many cases it means close Germany-Russia relations (NordStreams I and II for example) . In that case in Poland usually elections are won by more US sceptical party (current situation). If the US president is a republican then the US policy is more active in Europe and the Central and Eastern Europe countries are more heard because they undrstand that german-russian partnership is a threat to them and also to the US intrest in Europe. Then the elections are won by pro-US parties and slightly UE-sceptical. Never heard of any problems that the Americas could have travelling to Poland! Maybe it was due to the beginning of the war in Ukraine and american citizens were adviced not to travel to this region of the world by your autorities. Thank you for your great job!
Great Video Man! You do an awesome job at reviewing the Vis100. Can you do another video shooting the Yugo M57 in 7.62x25 or the new production ones just for fun.
I've got an old one, but not much Tokarev ammo aside from a spam can of the "special" stuff that we can't get anymore. I keep that on hand in case of special occassions.
since it's got an aluminum frame, you could put some skateboard grip tape on it for your support thumb. It would stick well. Good videos on this interesting pistol.
Great review! Just found out these were being imported today. I just have one suggestion. During your ammo test try including the winchester “Nato” 124 grain. Being a Nato member id like to see how it runs with that specific ammo standard.
Aside from ensuring a variety of projectile weight and type and case materials, the What's For Dinner test is a random selection from dozens of loads we keep on hand specifically for that test. The closest to NATO energy from this test was likely the Wolf.
We got one shipment of these in Canada before the govt banned all pistol sales. Apparently we got nicer export models but I haven't had a chance to compare anything yet with someone from Poland. Are you aware of any differences for export models or is that just a rumour?
@@saltycupcakes There's not enough information on these pistols for me to have known there were weven different versions (aside from different colors).
If I only get a hold of one of those. On the issue of DA/SA, I am a big fan of the Canik TP9 DA for having three firing modes (cloning the Walther P99AS). Unfortunately, it is not optics ready cut, but I manage. Thank you, GB! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
@@GBGuns The Polish administration at this time was pro-USA in opposit to today's pro-German one. Biden administration didn't like the conservative government. I do not really understand. I'm sorry. Regards
It was likely part of the Controlavirus protocols, but very disappointing. For months I watched the US State Department site almost daily hoping something would change leading up to our flight dates, but a week prior I had to cancel the trip.
@@GBGuns It was due to COVID restrictions, where was general ban on any foreigners coming to Poland at that time. US had something similar at that time. BTW, thx for great video :)
I wonder if any of these were given to the Ukrainians? I've seen Beretta 92s and Glocks. The Ukrainians have plenty of the new Polish made 5.56 rifles by the way.
I don't keep tabs on the current price of everything I've reviewed, that's why it's in the articles as a link. Click the link and if it's still for sale it'll show you today's price.
@@GBGuns Thanks man. So the price in Poland is prety much the same (around 1000$) and maybe this is the reason why people are not likely buying this gun.
The US State Department was where we got out information. We had tickets purchased which the airline refunded as Poland's policy for a time was "no US persons"
@@GBGuns I do not believe that such a ban happened. Maybe there were some Covid driven restriction for overseas travelers before vaccinations were available in 2021, but at no point Polish gov targeted US citizens. I am a Pole living in the US since 2006, I would know about such a ban.
Hmm, Iam from Poland - there is no problem to visit us by americans. Strange... but Iam sure it was not any sanction. We are always BEST FRIENDS until Russia take over Poland again. Learn about Polisch influence to create USA and what Polisch people did at the Blue vs Red time :). Regards from Gdansk.
That's what I knew of too, but after we had bought tickets we had to cancel due to a temporary "no Americans, even with familiar connections" policy shortly after the last Presidential election.

Do stores in your country offer vis 100 pistol with two barrels. They are available in Polish gun shops.
The only place I've seen the Vis 100 in the US is at two online retailers. What's the second barrel?
@@GBGuns 9mm, Barrel length: approx. 123.3mm, ended with M13.5x1 left hand thread.
