    Italian made BBM pistol

    This article in the NY Times references an Italian made BBM pistol. Does anyone know what that is? I could not find it with a Google search.

    http://www.nytimes.com/2011/08/10/wo...ines&emc=tha22

    ...On Tuesday, a police oversight body said that forensic tests had shown that both shots fired at the scene had come from a police officer’s Heckler and Koch submachine gun, and that the tests had so far shown no evidence that the loaded Italian-made BBM pistol carried by Mr. Duggan had been fired in the confrontation. ...

    Of course in our crazy world the bad guy always shoots first; if the good guy shoots first, he then becomes the "bad guy".

    You'd think that simply having a rioter point a gun at the police it would be sufficient to open fire, but apparently that is not going to be the case here.

    Ah, so that's why I could not find it. Not too accurate I would imagine.

    in a nation where owning a pistol is illegal, one may not care all that much about accuracy
