I always feel guilty when I hold a nazi gun. It could have been used to kill the good guys! :(:)

I have a few Mausers, a Luger, and a Walther P38 that are Nazi marked, but I don't think I've ever handled a Nazi P.35. Nice gun!

Didn't Hitler himself keep a decorated Browning HP as his sidearm?

I know he had a PPK, but the HP? Not sure.

It was actually a PP, not the PPK.

I too heard he used the PP (he commited suicide with it), but I never heard about him using a Hi-Power.

I believe he was a fan of firearms and weaponry, so it wouldn't surprise me if he had the good taste to use an HP.

But obviously his taste in other things makes him a universal scumbag. ;)

Hmmm, maybe I'm mistaken, then. But I thought he also had a pair of HPs, done to the same specs as that PP.

Yeah, he had a PP and a PPK, both were ornate, but the PPK is what he allegedly killed himself with, even though it was in another part of the country.

Never heard of it - I do know Herman Goering carried a Smith & Wesson Military and Police.

I wouldn't say Hitler was a fan of firearms, but more or less behind in it. When he formed his army, he kept the Mauser 98 rifle and ordered a carbine version of it in service. He didn't like submachine guns. He believed the rifle was the best weapon, but he was easily impressed when the STG-44 or MP44 came about. His orders were so strict, infantry weapons didn't advance much during the war.


Well it's not the weapon that kill people, it's just a tool. Remember that it doesn't kill, but the person holding it. I've seen weapons held by many different people, swords hundreds of years old, held some and I always wonder how many lives this weapon has taken, but you don't admire how many lives were taken by the weapon. You're supposed to admire the craftsmanship, the art of the weapon itself and appreciate that.

Hitler tried to shoot himself, but the gun malfunctioned. The cyanide took him instead.
