The Type 64 is a dedicated suppressed pistol first introduced in 1965 and used in the Vietnam War. It uses a rimless version of the .32 ACP cartridge (7.65x17mm) in a 9-round Makarov like magazine. Despite outward similarity to the Makarov (especially the grip), the design is wholly unique internally. It uses basically a miniaturized AK bolt to allow the shooter to select between blowback semiauto functioning and single shot manual operation. The bolts rotating locking lugs prevent it from cycling when locked, in a very clever alternative use of the rotating bolt system. The suppressor has two chambers, using a combination of baffles and wire mesh as suppressor elements. In addition to standard ammunition, a plastic-sabot frangible load was also developed for use in situations like airline hijackings, and this loading is why some sources reference a maximum effective range of 15 meters.
For all its technical cleverness, the Type 64 is a rather heavy pistol, at 1.8kg / 4 pounds. It was replaced in 1967 by the substantially lighter and simpler Type 67, which weighed only 1.05kg / 2.3 pounds. This particular Type 64 was originally owned by Mitch Werbell III, giving it an even more interesting history…

Not being sarcastic, just seems practical.

Well, there's an old engineer's saying which states: "If it's stupid but it works, it ain't stupid". :-)
Another bonus to locking the action isnt just getting rid of the sound of the slide moving but also lets a shooter decide how handle their brass. After all if being sneaky you also do not want to leave a spent casing in the area where you took care of your mark.

This pistol has got to have the highest proportion of "screws that don't work the way you would expect screws to work" of any gun Ian has looked at.
How many screwdrivers were broken trying to "unscrew" those two screws.
"No Screwdrivers Were Harmed in the Making of This Video" lol
I'm going to guess they took the time to train the 150 guys who were issued these.
@@GunFunZS But not the subsequent owners of them. Look at the screws. Those are manhandle marks. I've caused marks like those with shitty screwdrivers before. Or shitty screws. Or both.
That brass mesh, the expanded volume, low charge. That thing's gotta be whisper level quiet.
I wanna hear it shoot. Makes me wonder if it's like a Hollywood suppressor - just "fwip!"
I bet it’s Hollywood quiet.
Don't forget the .32 caliber, which has a pretty light noise - even without the suppressor. I'm curious about the copper mesh & how it might work...
@Sean Price or just fwsh. Little thing is a puzzle box to disassemble as far as I can say but id love to see/ hear it shoot.
Probably not that great. The .22 Ruger sneaky pistols used in this era have been rebuilt without mesh with newer baffles and work much better than before.
5:10 It's not only the noise. It is also, not leaving spent casings where you don't want them. Imagine you are out to assassinate a guy, you shoot and the casing goes flying somewhere. More so with a specific round. It's much better to know when you are ejecting so you can eject it to your pocket or something. And in case you fumble your first shot, you can while you eject the round, press the button and use semi-automatic fire.
Great point. That's a cool feature
Hmm, now I'm wondering if it would ever be practical to have some container/bag to catch brass as it's ejected. Not sure that would ever really be a good idea, but makes me wonder what it would look like if it was.
@@TesserId that exact thing exist, they're called brass catchers. They're often a bit large and annoying but they do work pretty well.
My favorite example though is the AR57, which is a conversion upper receiver for the AR15/M16 pattern rifle, it uses the P90's 50 round horizontal magazine and ejects the spent shells down through the AR15's normal magwell. However you can put a hollowed out AR mag in there to catch all the spent shells. Making it a great theoretical special-forces/spy weapon, because it shoots an armor peircing bullet, can be silenced, leaves no brass cases, and holds 50 rounds. If I was writing a James Bond type story, that's what I'd equip my protagonist with.
@@1lovesoni Thanks for the response. I'll lookup brass catchers, but that sounds like something for a very finicky reloader at the range. ~~~ Also, I recently saw a Forgotten weapons vid about caseless ammo. Something tells me you saw that one too.
@@1lovesoni O.K. Just looked up brass catcher. Clearly not a thing to hide traces of an assassination or such for spies. Could a spy really have a brass "bag" hidden in their leg? Sorry, joking aside, gotta shift back to the caseless ammo thing.
I'm honestly a massive fan of all the screwdriver compatible switches and lugs. Stuff that doesn't screw out to be lost, but is clearly designed so the operator knows that its for disassembly and cleaning. Because what's a better way to show that something will take something apart than a big ol' phillips head screw.
Sure, but this one doesn't use Philips head screws.
The advantage of this style slide lock rather than an external catch is that this can be cycled manually without having to manipulate a separate catch for each shot.
exactly, that's why they went trough the effort and cost of adding an ak style bolt.
Seems like a substantial increase in production cost though.
@@MtD021 yup, its not worth the effort so they replaced it pretty soon.

Ian spitting straight FIRE
Chinese here. Holy shit Ian what you've got on your hand is so rare, I couldn't even find any info about it on the Chinese-speaking side of the internet - except one image where it's placed beside a Type-67 silenced pistol (which basically is the same pistol, but without the secondary expansion chamber on the bottom.)
they captured a lot of our firearms in the Vietnam/Korean wars, that's why it's actually much easier to find info on Chinese firearms in the US than in China (and there is also much less public interest in firearms in China than in the US)
I recommend this website: pewpewpew.work/china/index.htm . I don't speak Mandarin myself but using google translate it was pretty understandable. This site is really comprehensive imo when it comes to chinese firearms.
@@cabbage6015 what a name
The problem of not finding them is just because the Type-64 silenced SMG is far more famous than this pistol, which causes the algorithm to automatically filter the information about the pistol
@@BangBangBang. that's very not true lmao
I believe it comes with mysterious stranger perk
Ahahaha nice
The designer is the John Browning of the PLA.
it is a silenced semiauto blowback handgun that can operate in straight pull manual repeater mode to suppress even more noise. probably keeping it closed at fire time with a side lever is a bit hard for the lever and not the best mechanical solution. that is a kludge, this is proper engineering. an impressive gun.
It looks like if a makarov and a welrod had a baby.
I think it kinda looks like a desert eagle from the side

That action lock is fantastic. The muffled thud of a properly suppressed 32 might not nessecarily alert a person, even if they hear it, it might not be identifiable as a dangerous sound. The mechanical click of the action will stand out in most environments though, as might, I imagine, the clatter of a spent cartrige ejecting and bouncing around. That is normally not a sound that's very audible over the sound of a gunshot, but inside a concrete building it might well be more distinguishable than the muted cough of the shot.
That pistol is soo fucking cool
That rotating bolt lock feature is far better than a simple slide lock. It does the job but if you need a fast second shot, simply rack the action. With a simple slide lock, if you need a fast second shot, you need to manually unlock the slide, rack it AND if you want to maintain maximum suppression Relock the slide and then fire. That 'run-on' sentence ought make the fast second shot idea really clear. With this design Yes, manual slide lock; not so much.
Great video! Take Care and be safe, John
It also lets you unload and reload the pistol when needed without changing its functional status while giving a quick and easy way to activate semiautomatic operation if stealth has been lost.
The later developed type 67 silenced pistol is basically a simplified version of type 64, the lower chamber beneath the barrel has been removed for weight reduction. Before type 64 was issued to the Chinese military in a "large scale", it was mainly introduced to NVA and Viet Cong during the Vietnam War for guerilla warfare and special operation. PLA assessed and realized its value, and start equipped type 64/67 into PLA special forces (back in the day these units were referred as "reconnaissance units" not "special forces"). During the war between China and Vietnam in 1979, special operation units from both sites used type 64/67 silenced pistols during many operations, and it is so effective that type 64/67 served in PLA for nearly 40 years, and recently replaced by QSW-06 suppressed pistol.
Not surprised, given that integrally silenced Welrods and High Standard HDM allegedly remain in use to this day. Allegedly, because MI6, the CIA, and the special forces of their respective countries are kinda hush hush on the matter.
As soon as you typed 1979...you smoked a lot of minds.

@@charlesguo3415 Seems like a fairly straightforward lathe operation.
@@Tunkkis LOL It's got a manual fire mod anyway
Without the suppressor this looks like the noisy cricket from Men in Black.
From a tactical perspective, I can see the advantages to a manually-operated gun you can cycle without having to disable and reenable the slide lock every time. Slightly faster and far less likely to lead to operator error. You don't want someone forgetting to re-lock the slide!
That is the most German non-german, sino-slavic pistol I've seen... And the coolest set up I've seen. I have no more words other than. What an action
Sino, not chino
@@Hermenie So it is. Thank you for correcting.
This gun for the "Chinese James Bond" !
What's impressive about the design is that there are no small pieces to lose. I'm actually surprised the magazine didn't incorporate the screwdriver needed. I had a cigarette lighter from the 30's made from billet aluminum that had a screwdriver built into the fuel filler cap. No rivets or pins, it was held together with screws. Not sure why you needed to take it apart, but they gave you the tool.
"The coolest gun you will see all day"
Me, who has been watching Forgotten Weapons for 3 hours: "Dont know about that one chief."
Reminds me of tank bore evacuator design.
Honestly, title isn't even clickbait. Who would have expected AK bolt to be there?
I like the Soviet’s (and CIA’s) Cold War “Silent” weapons... That were pretty much completely silent, save for a “click” of the hammer.
Damn click..
Makes you wonder what they could have done with those electronic primer ignition things, like the ones Remington made.
This would be literally the same. He showed that the slide locks and the hammer can be manually set to so that when it fires nothing but the hammer is moving making noise. Soviet weapons weren’t special in that aspect. Pretty much all the silenced guns made to be silent operate that way.
The vss or as val is my favorite.i want to get an ar in 9x39
@@cooliodiablo4571 hes talking about the self contained cartridges or whatever. the PSS is what the gun is called. there is no suppressor. the cartridge contains a piston which pushes the bullet out then seals the cartridge so no gas can escape. its damn near completely silent.
it was further modernized with the PSS-2, but its very poorly documented.
As a mechanic, the metallic mesh baffle reminds me of small bits in my air impact that are called "silencers" which look identical. Their performance is really incredible. If its considered crude, I would love to know what is better, though my Ingersoll Rand is much quieter than a firearm. Very interesting
Gun silencers and industrial mufflers used in cars/machinery are nearly identical because they were invented by the same man, Hiram Percy Maxim (his father also invented the Maxim machine gun).
I think this is the first Forgotten Weapons video I've seen that's from this year. The camera quality is really good.
Well, it's certainly the coolest gun I've seen today so far, but it's only 6:00 AM.
I understand the reason for the fancy locking mechanism. It's to enable you to quickly cycle the action manually in single shot mode without having to fumble with a separate locking lever. This will make follow up shots faster, which can be important with such a weak cartridge. It may not be vital, but you got to admire the effort that went into designing this.
I like the clickbait-esque titles related to gun stuff:
"Increase your rate of fire with this one weird trick! - Pedersen Device"
"This is the gun the wood and steel industry don't want you to know about... - AR15"
"They told him it was quiet, but then he pulled the trigger, you won't believe what happened next! - Welrod"
This is great!

I don’t know about “coolest”, but it’s definitely up there. It probably one of the rarest things that I’ve seen in private hands in the USA. I can’t imagine that many of them made it over here, if more than one did. Low production, special purpose military gun, from Communist China..... It may have been a Vietnam War bring back. I’m guessing that the guy mentioned in the video had some very important international connections. I don’t see this in the hands of the NVA. I don’t see the Chinese government selling one on the commercial market. My guess is that China sent one or more to another comblock country for them to evaluate, and it got lost/stolen/sold. This thing might have been stolen by the CIA and brought back. I’m almost more interested in the story of how it made it here, than I am with the gun. If they had that history, it might even go double the money at auction.
Mitchell WerBell had the gun since at least 1981. The story he told (which may or may not be true) is that he got it in the aftermath of a failed assassination attempt on him when he was selling weapons in South Vietnam in the mid 1960s. The only other admitted place where one of these guns has shown up as South Korea in the early 1970s. The South Koreans found a North Korean spy with one.
The pistol was designed for insurgents to use on assassination missions. The Chinese gave some to the NVA which gave them to the elite Viet Cong special operations units. The Chinese Type 67 silenced (which replaced the type 64) pistol was much more common in South Vietnam.
Jim and John are right it is from the Mitchell WerBell collection. We wrote a blog about it that may provide some more of the background for you, www.rockislandauction.com/riac-blog/weapons-of-mitch-werbell-iii!
Interesting how you have a one shot mode, making it as quiet as possible. Clearly used for assassinations or special operations. Extremely interesting weapon, very rare!

Another fantastic breakdown, Ian!
