Exactly, the guns are handwaved away as being supplied by Moscow, but the simple question remains... how? Where would the NKVD have gotten nearly enough of an uncommon, WW1 Walter pocket pistol from 1915, and its extremely unique ammunition? If they had captured guns, they probably would have been the Model 5 and Model 7, where did they get such outdated guns from?
0.25 APC is a 6mm round, and the Walther Model 2 is a tiny gun. That feels like the most uncomfortable, and unpleasant way you could execute someone. You would essentially have to be point blank to the head for a 6mm to do anything if you didn't want to have to shoot the person 25 times.
