The .380 was so cute. I always wanted one but it’s always escaped me. A sort-of baby 1911. They seemed to sell well.

The 1911 were odd to Americans. Some good features and I think they shot well. A friend had one and he sliced his fingers like a scalpel cleaning the underside of the slide with a paper towel! Boy did he bleed. lol. External extractor, vent rib for glitz, and a windage adj. sight standard.

The Comanche (.22, .38/.357) was a K-frame sized gun and actually pretty serviceable. Sort of a Spanish Colt Trooper. The “Super Comanche” was the huge frame .44 mag, supposed to be available in .45 Colt, but I never saw one of those. They were almost as big as a Dan Wesson and actually felt great. Lots of the parts were MIM and that kept the price competitive. Stoger imported them. Interarms imported some of the police and military versions I think.

Most Llama guns were priced about 1/3 under the mainstream brands, making them a good value for the casual shooter. As long as you didn’t break anything.
