This Type 54 follows the military pattern. The slide top bears Chinese characters, and the right side of the frame is marked with the serial number area alongside a "66" stamp.
The pistol is built on a blued steel frame and slide with rear serrations, paired with black ribbed plastic grips featuring star medallions. Sights consist of a fixed front blade and a drift-adjustable rear notch in a dovetail.
Internally, it uses the Tokarev-style removable hammer/sear module, a hallmark of the design that simplifies maintenance and parts access. The action is single-action with a short-recoil, locked-breech system and a half-cock hammer notch.
Chambered in 7.62x25mm Tokarev, it has a 4.5 inch carbon steel barrel and an 8+1 capacity using a single-column steel magazine. An importer marking is present on the underside near the muzzle, consistent with its importation history.
