Hello PSP,,,

I have a Model 85BB and a Model 87.

I'm gonna be real embarrassed if they have a de-cocker,,,
And I just don't know how they operate.

Now I have to take the afternoon off to go home to find out.

According to Wikipedia the safety/de-cocker was introduced in the "F" version.

Quote:
The F versions of models 81, 82, 84 and 85 introduced the "combat" trigger guard with a squared-off front that allows for a finger hold, plastic grips, a proprietary "Bruniton" finish, a chrome-plated barrel and chamber, and replaced the safety with a decocker, which lowers the hammer when operated. As a result, these pistols cannot be "cocked and locked".
So my 85BB does not have a decocker.

My Model 87 (.22 LR) doesn't have a letter denoting a variation,,,
I would suspect it aligns with the BB or earlier as it has the round trigger guard.
