The Type 68 is a North Korean hybrid of the Tokarev and the High Power, used as a military service pistol until replaced by the Beak-Du-San copy pop the CZ75. The general outline of the gun is a copy of the Tokarev, with a modular removable fire control group, lack of manual safety, and tall thin sights. It is chambered for 7.62x25mm, and uses a magazine identical to the standard Tokarev except for not having a magazine catch cut, as the Type 68 has a heel magazine release.
Internally, the High Power elements include a detent-retained barrel pin, use of a solid barrel cam instead of a 1911/Tokarev swinging link, and a fixed barrel bushing. Two patterns of markings exist, one with a date and North Korean marking, and one (like this example) with only a serial number.
North Korean guns of all types are very rare in the United States. A very small number of Type 68s have come into the US, generally through Central America (probably via Cuba) and South Africa (via Rhodesia/Zimbabwe).
Update: It appears that the original design work for these was done by an independent engineering firm in Yugoslavia. The design (a TT33 with High Power type locking and angled slide serrations) was not completed in time for the trials that would lead to adoption of the Yugoslav M57, and the drawings were transferred to "another country" - probably North Korea.
Thanks to Legacy Collectibles for loaning me this pistol for filming! Check out his KZfaq channel, with lots of other interesting guns:

The famous rifles of the Russian designer Tokarev SVT-38, SVT-40 once made a splash in the arms business. For SVT 40 Tokarev even provided a silencer (I do not know how relevant was the use of a silencer on rifles in the first half of the 20th century and whether silencers were used at all at that time). On the one hand, I envy that the US has very liberal legislation for gun ownership (unfortunately, this is a problem in Russia), but on the other hand, news regularly comes from the US about the use of weapons among the population (sometimes with victims), so the issue is very controversial...

So according to the Juche Calendar, 1912 is the 1st year, so the picture of one with a 41 would be made in 1953, unfortunately that still would be too early. My best guess is the same as Ian's probably a factory code because factories are named by number from what I've seen. Right side could possibly be the amount of the guns made by that factory. Good idea with the different calendar though, I didn't think of that.

Just to keep all of the info on this together, the first syllable, while transliterated in to English as "Baek", is actually pronounced with a short "a" sound. It's identical in sound to the English word "back". Yes, it's a pretty famous mountain in Korean history and legend. It's even more so for North Korea, since according to Kim Jong-Il's official biography, he was born on Baekdu-san. (There is considerable evidence that this is not the case and that the official bio was written that way to give him the imprimatur of heavenly favor. Pretty much SOP for third world dictators.)

Very nice breakdown of a Type 68 showing all the ways it differs just slightly from the TT33 Tokarev. I just saw your video about turn of the century semiauto handguns and cartridges yesterday and can see the family resemblance between the TT33 and the Browning 1900. Then the Type 68 takes it a couple of steps farther with the threaded and peened barrel bushing, the 1911 style slide lock lever, and the Hi Power style barrel cam rather than the pivoting link. One thing about pronunciation though, I have it on good authority (as in Russians and Ukrainians I know personally) that Makarov is pronounced Ma-KAR-ov, stress on the middle syllable, not the first one. If you want to be the cool kid, that's the way you need to say it.

Wow another gun I never knew existed... 😱 Prob unlikely to get your hands on one anytime soon. But since Japan just adopted the new Type 20, I love to see a video on the Type 89 and Japans post-war firearms! :)

It looks more as it would be a 7-digit serial xxxx / yyy - judging from the spaces next to the oblique stroke [and from the typeset choosen (the numeral one should consist of two lines)]...

Baek Doo San pistol was adopted while Kim Jung Il (Jung Eun's old man) in power, 1992. Baek Doo San is the tallest mountain in Korean peninsula. In south Korea, some numbers of NK spies were caught with this pistol and essentially a direct copy of CZ75

BAEK-DU-SAN, a DPRK 9mm. Did they ever come up for auction? Anywhere. Their copy of a CZ75 9mm Parabellum pistol.

The military model with the year could Juche(think I spelled right). 1912 is Juche 1. 1913 is Juche 2. You get the idea. As Ian said very little is actually known.

My wife has a pistol similar to this that her father brought back from vietnam. Has chinese characters on the top near ejection port. And a hand stamped serial number with 1966 above the grip. Could you do a video on that one?

@@john-paulsilke893 haven't shot it yet. Pretty sure it uses the tokarev cartridge. Has a button mag release and that sliding clip to remove the slide stop for disassembly.

Aight, burn me on a stake or whatever, but it actually looks better than the regular Tokarevs. The fact that it have mismatched parts might means that there is more than one imported to the states, or they just have non meticulous gunsmith/armourer.

I’m wondering if he brought it back in parts bins to get around customs. If whoever found this gun found it in numerous pieces he probably put it together once and disassembled it for customs. Or something like that. If it was a slap-together then that would explain mismatched serial numbers. OR all the pieces were probably broke at one point and replaced with new ones which seems more plausible. Which tells me if this is the case this gun is unreliable.
