      That’s true, I didn’t even think about the fact that he had time to pack And bring all his belongings before surrendering. I just remember seeing an old news reel of him taking his revolver out it’s holster and handing it to an American officer and it was clearly a S&W.

      @6:49. He presented the S&W formally later on (hence why it was filmed). This Walther was the pistol he presented to the Americans he surrendered to in the field.

    This is interesting P08
    It originally looks like a World War I "Artillery Luger" but it has grip safety and a handle under the barrel which is pretty unusual
    It remained in nice condition anyway

    I can only imagine Herr Herrman Goring collection of fire arms, swords, knifes, medals, uniforms, jewelry, train set, vehicles had to be rather substantial considering the pictures that are available on the internet..
    Another example was his bullet proof car with an centrifugal supercharger 500HP engine from an aero plane if I'm not mistaken..
    Considering the VW only had 25HP one can only imagine goering sitting on an autobahn on ramp waiting for an unexpected VW to go by at a snails pace Herr Goering smashing the loud pedal roaring by the unsuspecting vw at a blistering speed, super charger screaming scaring the shit out of the vw occupants while Herr Goering laughing his fat ass off..
    Back to my point - I'm assuming the majority if his stuff was destroyed in the fire, or looted.. Most of his belongings are probably sitting attics, or destroyed after having the brakes beat off them sometime in fifties..

    So he was going to surrender Germany to the US president with a plain US made Smith & Wesson revolver? Weird, I wouldn't be surprised if the capturing soldiers selected the better one.
