Yes, because when he went through some of his papers I could read a green slip from the German border control (BGS) stating his possesion of a gun on our flight.

Gun would have been checked into the hold. There's not a chance he would have been permitted to carry it in the cabin.

Yesterday I saw Matthias Wissmann on LH 304

Yesterday evening I saw Matthias Wissmann on the flight LH 304 from TXL to STR. He is a politician in Germany and a member of the CDU party. He was the minister of transport and is still a member of the Lower House of German Parliament.

Actually seen it quite often, even, but very rarely, in official German government documents translated into English. This got me curious, so I found some references.

deutsche welle, answers.com, countrystudies.us, bvmed.de, and germnews.de
