Makarov PB: Silenced KGB "Wet Work" Pistol

All the best firearms history channels streaming to all major devices:
weaponsandwar.tv
In 1967, the Tula arsenal introduced a specialized silenced version of the Makarov for covert use. This was a very effective pistol, and its design was also very heavily changed from that of the regular pistol. With a two-part silencer surrounding the barrel, the recoil spring had to be moved to a location inside the grip panels. It was still chambered for 9x18mm Makarov though, and used standard Makarov magazines. Not much official information has been published on the PB - it may actually still be in production today - and so I don't have any good production numbers to provide.
Many thanks to the IRCGN (Institut de Recherche Criminelle de la Gendarmerie Nationale) for allowing me access to film this hard-to-find silenced pistol for you!

Like the PM (Pistolet Makarova), the PB (Pistolet Besshumnyy) or "Silent Pistol" is still in production in small made-for-order numbers at Izhevsk until this day. Also, just like the PM, the PB was designed at Tula, but was never produced anywhere else besides Izhevsk. The entire trigger system, safety/decocker, and magazine are identical to that of the PM. Otherwise, it is a completely unique design.

A really cool take on an integrally suppressed handgun. What got my attention was the vertical recoil spring in the grip and the pivoting lever. Never put much thought into where the recoil spring would go in such a compact unit.

@JR9979 7 күн бұрын

The German Luger pistols did something similar but worked in the opposite direction with an angle lever and an extension spring. The Toggle opens on firing which pulls a link connected to the angle lever....the angle lever then pulls on the spring until the action stops recoiling. The spring then pulls down the angle lever and the lever pulls the link on the toggle...Pushing the bolt forward and chambering a round ready to fire. This all happens in the grip.

Ian, it's the first time I have to write that your data needs serious corrections right from the cover of the clip 😢 1. It's not a KGB wetwork tool. It was designed for Army, for field reconnaissance as a low-report weapon. Think of Val and Vintorez as its conceptual grandchildren. KGB had its own separate line of development, led by, among others, Stechkin. 2. Makarov has nothing to do with it except the magazine and some parts in the trigger mechanism, that was Army's requirements. Designer's name is Anatoly Deryagin. It's just PB (pistolet beschumny - silenced pistol) or 6П9 by army code. Despite it's rather weird look it's a well-balanced weapon, precise and very pleasant to shoot. Sits nice in the hand, points instinctively, notch and bead are quite readable. Those I held in my hands were very well made, much cleaner and precise than Mak.

The Makarov PB is a very exquisite variant of the regular Makarov, a classic Cold War-era pistol. The National Gendarmerie must have gone on quite the treasure hunt to increase their collection.

From Ian I learned that a silencer is not a truck it is a series of tubes.

Really fascinating piece of engineering there, nothing overly complicated (as I expect from Soviet era designs) but effective.

interesting to see the surpressor baffle design is basically 1:1 to what the ASVAL uses

Contrary to common myths and a huge chunk of comments here, pb was designed for recon troops and spec ops units to silently take down guards and patrols. Basically, it fits the same role as vss/val, but it's 30 years older. Of course, it saw service in some spy operations, but the main user were the army special units

Awesome I didn't know supressors were so easy to make! They are just hardware store parts

It is similar to a car muffler. It's just a matter of slowing the gas expansion and keeping most of it in the gun. The biggest problem is that the government will give you a long vacation if you try it. Some get an eternal nap.

It's easier than you think You can take regular car oil filter, attach it to the gun using custom adapter, and it would work just fine

looks really cool with just the rear suppresser section alone

Can always date a 50s-70s pistol by that purple bluing such a cool change to the pistol

After seeing Brandon Herrera video on the VSS I imagine that putting actually modern and good baffles instead of those ridiculous baffles this gun could be potentially movie silent

The PB pistol was not developed at the Tula Arsenal. It was created by designers Deryagin (pistol) and Neugodov (suppresor) at TsNIITochmash (rus: ЦНИИТочМаш - Central Scientific - Research Institute for Precision Machine Engineering)
