Plucky Brits may also have played a role by designing the gun. It hasn't been found but from the CCTV the cops think it might be a B&T Station Six 9. Which is a modern Swiss copy of the Welrod, which was an almost silent assassin's pistol developed by the SOE for its agents in WW2.

The SOE secret weapons boffins were based near Welwyn and gave many of their designs a code name beginning with Wel. There was the Welgun, Welbum, Welbike, Welfreighter and Welman. (Plus the Normgun, named after a bloke called Norman.)
