The QSW-06 (Chinese: QSW06微声手枪; pinyin: QSW06 Wéishēng Shǒuqiāng) (officially translated in pinyin as Wēishēng Shǒu Qiāng, literally 'Minimal noise hand gun') (also sometimes referred to as the Type 06) is a suppressed semi-automatic pistol in limited use with the People's Liberation Army (PLA) and various Chinese police departments.

The QSW-06 is based on the QSZ-92 semi-automatic service pistol and is designed to replace the aging QSW-67 silent pistol.^[1]
