Well from what I've read it is not certain how he obtained that revolver but that it was shipped to france.
It is suspected that Hitler may have taken it as a souvenir during his service in the Austro-Hungarian Army during WWI.
Interestingly enough this is the only firearm he was known to actually carry around on his person as he never actually carried his ornate Walther PP.
