Nazi officers, Anon3, as the real common pistol used by nazis was the Luger P08, and the 'Red 9' variant was given instead. Made to use the same 9mm rounds as the lugers. Though even the lugers were replaced with the Walther P38. *End history lesson*
All that aside, still a sexy pic.

Alright, time for some Mauser schooling.
The original German made Mauser C96, first produced in 1896, is an often coppied weapon with few originals still remaining floating about that can indeed be verified(Many collectors inadvertently find themselves getting a hold of cheap Spanish, or worse, Chinese knock-offs of poor quality) .
It came in many different varieties but we can narrow it down based on the few clues provided. It is certainly not the Prussian variant model Red 9 (The nine was to remind users to load the 9mm Parabellum). As we can see, the rounds being loaded (via a strip clip, IMPORTANT) have a bottle neck design not seen on the 9mm Parabellum. However, this bottleneck IS present in the original 7.63X25mm the weapon was initially chambered for.
So, taking these clues, as well as the fact that there is not a permanent wood stock affixed to it's "broom handle", the non-detachable magazine (see? important), and that a Nazi would never willingly use a non-German contract variety, we can narrow down the model.
This is either the M1898 Pistol Carbine, or the M1930 (or M30) Mauser. Both chambered in the 7.63x25mm, both with barrels over 4 inches, both used strip clips, both used the famous broom handle grip.
