Answer 3

There were basically two pistol types that

were carried by German officers, during World War 2; the PO8 Lugar

and the Walther P38. In 1908 the German Army adopted the Luger to replace the Reichsrevolver in front-line

service. The Pistole

08 (or P.08) had a 100 mm barrel and was chambered in 9×19 mm Parabellum. The P.08 was the usual side arm for German Army personnel in both world wars, though it was being replaced by the Walther P38 starting in 1938.The Walther P38 is a 9 mm semi-automatic

pistol

that was developed by Walther arms as the service pistol of the Wehrmacht at the beginning of World War II. It was intended to replace the costly Luger P08, the production of which was scheduled to end in 1942(Wikipedia).
