    YEP it stands for "Fabbrica Armi Terni" The Military arsenal at Terni Italy, and 77 is the year it was inspected and refurbished. Mostly, they used US supplied replacement parts.

    I would not have minded using the FAT stock, if it had been a USGI, as sometimes seen. It is an Italian copy, and the receiver is set so far in, the slide rubs on the side of the stock instead of the receiver.
