There was some semi-auto Nazi pistol used by the Gestapo, and it wasn't the Luger, it was some gun that almost looked futuristic, and was sorta' like a concealed carry pistol, it looked like a compact.
Does anyone know what I am talking about? And have a pic? I was also wondering if they would have any at gun shows, 'cause I haven't seen a Luger at a gun show, and I thought maybe those little guns would be nice.
I think Walther made them, or maybe I'm wrong.
look at the first one. reminds me of han solo's blaster.

The C96, or Broomhandle Mauser, was the first semi-automatic pistol to see widespread use. It was manufactured from 1896 to 1936 in Germany, as well as being manufactured in direct or modified - and often unlicensed - form in other countries, such as Spain, and especially China.

That's an 1896 Mauser. Most were made in 7.63 Mauser caliber, which was pretty much the same as the one used in the Borchardt pistol, the forerunner of the Luger.
Churchill used a '96 Mauser in South Africa during the Boer War. And he may have carried one at the Battle of Omdurman against the Mahdi and the Dervishes too, but I am not sure of this.
High-ranking German officers and the slimy GESTAPO creeps often used 7.65mm pocket pistols of many varieties. Among the most popular were the Mauser HSc and the Walter PP and PPK.

Churchhill carried that Mauser as his prsonal firearm throughout the war. If you have ever seen the whole setup, it came with a holster that attached to the back of the pistol to form a stock so you could shoot it like a carbine. Pretty neat.
