Hey Roadkill!! I don't know the answer either.

But, I have seen many photos of German Troops and for the most part, regular Army had Lugers, Waffen SS had non-Lugers. While it is difficult to identify the exact pistol, they look similar to 1911 Colt .45 Cal. My guess, in many instances, are either 1935 Model Browning or Radom Pistols.

The smaller pistols, like the 7.65 or 9 Kurz, are really had to identify, in most cases.
