A design indigenous to North Korea, the Type 70 has elements of the Walther PP, Makarov, and even the Browning Model 1910 pistols. Operating on a hammer fired simple blowback mechanism with a cross bolt type safety, exposed serrated ring style hammer, fixed sights and one piece wrap around plastic grips with a large distinctive star molded at the top of both sides. The slide is marked with Korean characters, a circled star, and "7.62". It is, however, designed and chambered for .32 ACP (7.65 Browning Auto). These are rarely seen outside of North Korea.

Very fine with 70% original blue finish displaying areas of edge wear, minor handling marks, and thinning finish on the grip strap. Grip is fine with some light handling marks and scattered nicks and scratches. Mechanically excellent.
