I haven't been there in quite a bit, but that doesn't look like the museum at all. The museum in Vienna has the car with the bullet hole and clothing of Ferdinand on display, but not the gun.
Yeah I just replied to another comment, but the pic might be from the Royal Armouries in Leeds lol. I was just saying that the original gun is supposed to be in the Heeresgeschichtliches Museum in Vienna. Could be they had it out on loan elsewhere the time that you went? Anyway I can't look it up now; seems like the website is down.
