This video provides an in-depth look at the Chang Feng CS/LS 06, a Chinese submachine gun notable for its helical magazine. The creator details its development by Chongqing Chang Feng Company Ltd, its designer's background, and its design inspiration from the Russian Bizon and American Calico. The evolution from an early buttstock magazine design to a more conventional layout is discussed, along with caliber changes from Chinese 5.8mm to 9x19mm for export. The final production features like a suppressor-ready muzzle, optics rail, and telescoping stock are highlighted. The video also mentions its adoption by Chinese security agencies and export to Myanmar, Venezuela, and Uganda, and thanks the French IRCGN for access to a rare specimen.
This video from the Brownells Vault features a deep dive into the Chinese Type 64 pistol, a unique firearm developed in the early 1960s. Unlike pistols with external suppressors, the Type 64 boasts an integral suppressor with rubber baffles and brass mesh, alongside an expansion chamber below the barrel. It fires a dedicated rimless .32 caliber (7.62x17mm) cartridge, similar to .32 ACP. The pistol can also be configured for single-shot operation by locking the slide. The featured example has a notable provenance, having been acquired by Mitch WerBell, a renowned figure in OSS, espionage, and silencer development, who obtained it after an assassination attempt in Vietnam.
