Here is a recently aquired photo of a german soldier firing a small revolver. It appears to be a Velo Dog or perhaps a german made small caliber commercial pistol? What do you guys think?

Hi Adam, It is a Velo Dog. Quite the marksman-ish pose. I wonder if he was able to hit the ground with it?
He must have been a third string latrene technician to have been issued such a pretigious pistol.

Hi Dave,
I believe this is the pistol he is shooting. I borrowed the photo from a previous post by Pancho. It could be that he was Po-Folk and it was all he could afford,too. Personally I would prefer a big rock and a sling-shot, but that's just me.
