"BB"
What does that stand for? - User: 2wingo
- "BB" stands for "Brevettato Brevettato". The Italian word "Brevettato" means "patented". The original models were just called by their model number, then they were improved with the B versions, so like 84B. The B models had automatic firing pin safety, a shorter extractor and serrations on the front and back straps. The BB versions were then released, which not only retained the improvements of the B, but also had the safety deactivate the trigger, added more serrations on the slide as well as white dot and post sights. In short, "BB" signifies the second improvement to the design. Think of it sort of like "A2" on modern firearms. (Votesmall (talk) 21:44, 27 March 2024 (UTC))
