Llama 1911 .45acp
Like others have said, Llama (pronounced Yama) made everything from junk to high quality and everywhere in between. Parts for many models are impossible to find. Luckily, I owned one that would take parts from standard 1911 pistols (except the grips). It was a Llama 1911, .45acp with brushed stainless finish, a match grade barrel, and I used Colt mags. The frame was manufactured by Beretta and it was actually extremely acurate & reliable. Beretta built some of Llama's frames and parts starting in the late 80's. The guy that owned it before me was using it as a match/target pistol. I paid $350 for it and, regretfuly, ended up selling it for $550. Even though I sold for more then I paid, I regret ever selling it. It was one of the better ones produced by Llama & a really great shooting pistol. It looks a little funny with the mounts & scope in place, but make no mistake, it was a performer.
