Most likely a Luger 9mm.
it MIGHT have been a luger, not likely though because they replaced that with the walther p38 9mm pistol, i know he atleast had that because theres a picture of him somewhere i saw. He was walking with one of his generals and inspecting the army. you can see under his nazi suit and jacket a holster on his belt with a walther p38.
believe it or not, there was a record somewhere where he personally went to Russia and may have shot 1 or 2 russians himself with it.

Was the revolver used in the Great War?
Yes. The standard British sidearm was the Webley revolver in .455 caliber. The US had changed from the .38 revolver as the standard issue in 1911, to the .45 Colt ACP automatic (which remained the standard sidearm into the 1980s) but there were undoubtedly still officers carrying the .38, out of preference or lack of availability of the .45 automatic. Many men carried "unofficial" pistols and revolvers, such as the Colt .45 "Peacemaker" (actually the "Single Action Army", which had been the official sidearm until 1892) were always popular. US pilot Frank Luke, the only US aviator awarded the Medal of Honor while the war was going on, crashed behind enemy lines after being gutshot while shooting down three balloons, and pulled out his .45 revolver to shoot it out with German troops closing in to capture him, and went down fighting. The standard French sidearm was the Lebel Model 1892 revolver.
