The VP9 and Station Six 9 are not literally WW2 Welrods.
They are basically the exact same design, produced in the modern era by B&T / Station Six, though modernized with minor changes like polymer grips.
Its like how the Browning 1911 was the US service pistol during WW2, but tons of different modern manufacturers produce modern versions of it.
Finding an actual working WW2 era Welrod with an intact, functional suppressor would basically be impossible now, as it uses a series of rubber wipes (basically just sheets of rubber) instead of machined baffles that modern suppressors use.
The rubber would almost certainly be rotted by now.
... If someone is saying this guy used a literal Welrod, they're even more stupid than the NYPD, who are almost certainly implying a VP9 or Station Six 9.

Yeah there have been people saying it's an actual British welrod.
Instead of the much more likely normal Glock with a funky surpressor
