The Gestapo were like the upper ranks in a police department and were enforcers of the Nazi laws.
The SS was entrusted with the commission of atrocities, illegal activities, and war crimes. The SS oversaw the isolation and displacement of Jews from the populations of the conquered territories, seizing their assets and deporting them to concentration camps and ghettos, where they were used as slave labor or immediately killed.

Did Hitler take guns away from Jews?

At the time of the Holocaust, Jews were pacifistic and had very few guns. Since then, the surviving Jews have become more willing to defend themselves through violence when necessary.___The ban on Jews owning firearms came quite late - in 1938 (about five years after the Nazis came to power). The German Jews had a long tradition of being law-abiding, and armed resistance was far from their minds. The idea that if they had had the weapons they would have used force suggests a failure to understand the German Jews. It should be pointed out that none of the German minorities oppressed and persecuted by the Nazis resorted to armed resistance. In other words, it wasn't a specifically Jewish reluctance.
