Type 64 submachine gun
Produced by State factory 66
The Type 64 (Chinese: 1964年式衝鋒槍; pinyin: 1964 Niánshì Chōngfēng Qiāng; lit. '1964Year Type Submachine Gun') is a submachine gun of Chinese origin. Designed for silent operations, the Type 64 has an integral suppressor making the weapon considerably quieter. The weapon is a magazine-fed selective-fire submachine gun using an open-bolt, blowback action, chambered for 7.62×25mm Type 64 (A special subsonic version of the Chinese 7.62x25 Type-51 7.62×25mm Tokarev round). This was one of the few Chinese-made Cold War small arms that were not based on any existing Soviet small arms.
