The Type 67 is a Chinese semi-automatic pistol with an integrated suppressor, intended for low-signature close-range use. It is chambered for a proprietary rimless “Type 64” pistol cartridge (often described as a .32-caliber rimless round), and feeds from a single-column box magazine. The Type 67 is best known as the lighter, more conventional successor to the earlier Type 64 silenced pistol.

HISTORY

China developed the Type 67 as a follow-on to the Type 64, keeping the concept of a purpose-built suppressed pistol but reworking the layout into a slimmer package with a tubular suppressor around the barrel. Contemporary examination notes a removable suppressor assembly (with different attachment methods observed across examples), wire-mesh suppressor internals, and a design approach aimed at very quiet operation at short distances. The Type 67 also retained the “manual/locked” firing concept associated with dedicated silenced pistols, allowing reduced action noise at the cost of rate of fire.

The Type 67 is most closely associated with specialized users rather than general issue, and Vietnam-era context is typically linked to limited, niche employment of suppressed weapons. A Small Arms Review account notes early Type 67 examples observed among captured materiel in Vietnam, suggesting at least some presence in-theater. In later PLA service, the Type 67 was eventually replaced by newer suppressed sidearms, reflecting changing doctrine and modernization of Chinese special-purpose weapons.
