Is this is Pistol? This was the question asn the owner found such a pistol which the famous machine gunner holds in his hands.

The pistol looks to be a Browning Hi-power (named for the unsually hi capacity magazine for the time). It was made in Belgium prior to the war and was adopted by the Germans when they overran that country in 1940.
