What is this handgun?

I can't make out if this is an Ashani, but it looks rather refined for the Ashani..
Please identify this...

Also the safety and mag release here aren't the same as the Ashani right?

It looks like Walther PPK without the magazine. The safety and the mag release and a distinctive shape just under the barrel. I am 99.99% sure it is Walther ppk.

Also in Ashani the trigger has no gap. This is definitely not Ashani.

For one, it has a hammer. And is double action. Probably a Walther PP or clone.

This is a tough one, do you have the original movie poster?

I think it's 'probably' not an FEG, since this has a hole on the top of the trigger guard that I don't see

I'm guessing that this is an artist's rendition of a PP (or clone)

PS. I like how the gun's safety is engaged and the finger is off the trigger for the photo-shoot/painting :)

Could it be the Bhutan Route Chinese made Walther CLone?

This is not from a movie. This is a real pic, and I didn't want to ask the guy who was posing with it.. I edited out the rest

Impossible to comment without looking at the markings?
