Not much is known about the Llama serial number sequencing, so we are attempting to do a database spreadsheet. For all practical purposes, we are looking at the handguns produced under the 'Llama' name, and not the earlier Gabilondo y Cia products. I strongly suspect that Gabilondo y Cia started a continuous one ascending number system from the point where they adopted the Llama name (early 1930s?). Video song hindi. To start, these are some numbers I have. Please list model name/number, caliber, year code (if available) and serial number.
'Extra' 9mm Largo - 1940 - 45680 'Extra' 9mm Largo - 1940 - 46306 'Extra' 9mm Largo - 1940 - 46883 Model II - 380 ACP - 1943 - 70989 Model I - 32 ACP - 1943 - 72994 (German GECO marked) Model II - 380 ACP - 1944 - 78290 Model I - 32 ACP - 1944 - 84482 'Extra' 9mm Largo - 1944 - 89123 Model IIIA - 380 ACP - (don't have year handy) - 739813. Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I have come to the conclusion that my pistol is a X-A and not a X. I have read that the Model X-A had a grip safety added when production of this model began in 1954. Although mine has a date code of V (1951), it has a grip safety. It has a lanyard ring, arched mainspring housing and checkered wood grips with no Llama medallion.
The serial number is 1471xx which would put it around 2000 after yours. The slide has a rounded top with no sight ramp. It did not come with a box so I have no idea how it was classified when it originally sold. I will change the designation on the database list. Whether it is a X or XA it is a beautiful little piece and a heck of a lot of fun to shoot. Regards, Cal44.
I am researching a mark on my.380 Llama with serial number 6XXXX. On the right side just below the serial number is G.C in a circle. The letters are scroll. From my research, I think this is a German distributor, but I don't think it is Geco. Once site gave a differant mark for Gustav Genschow and coompany of Berlin an ammunition manufacturer who also made some rifles, mostly.22 Another site suggested that it might be the mark of the Spanish manufaturer, but that mark does not appear on most of the small frame Llamas that I have seen.
I lost a gunbroker auction on a similarly marked.32 or.380, a couple months ago, but can not find it in the advanced search so it might have been longer. This particular pistol was Nazi marked and the seller gave the name of the company that the mark belonged to, but I can't remember it.
The winning bid was over $900. The pistol was in beautiful shape, and I believe untouched. That being the case, I would think it very rare as it is the first I have seen. The germans 'adopted' many commercial pistols to equip their military, Belgian, Polish, Italian etc., but I have never seen a commercial Llama. I got interested in the baby Llamas because they were pretty well made minature 1911s. I have a.22, a.32 (both post war) and the.380 which dates to 1942-1943.
Any help on the mark would be appreciated. Let me know about the springs. If springs in the.32 and.380 problems as well? If so, any suggestions as to where I might pick up a couple.
I won't shoot them much, but would like to get a couple of each just in case.my son and daughter might appreciate that when they go to sell 'emm after I'm gone. QUOTE=larryh11Hi Bill, Welcome to the forum! Does your Llama say MicroMax on it? I don't think that model came out until the 90s.

By your date code I bet you have the III-A which is not marked anywhere on the slide. R.1 was made in 1973. Does your slide say 'Especial' on it? Is it a locked breech model?
(barrel has a barrel link like a 1911). That is all helpful when you look for parts or other information on your pistol. Just trying to help!! Larry Well Larry, Thanks so much for the help! You are correct! The gun is exactly as you said.
Thanks again for the information! Personally, I am pleased with the Max series from Llama. I am sorry it didn't keep them from going under. They are solid shooters except for the MiniMax II SC model.
I've had several and the quality is suspect, at best. The one I have now may end up being a good shooter but I'm still tinkering with it. Time will tell. However, my Max I 9mm Govt size is the best 9mm shooter I have.
It is solid, reliable, accurate and the weight handles the 9mm recoil like a dream. All the Max series Llamas I've owned or worked on are solid. Any Llama lover needs to have 1 in their collection, IMO.
Llama 380 Serial Number History
This Spanish Llama model IX-A is a single action, semi-automatic pistol that is chambered for the.45 ACP cartridge. It was designed after the semi-automatic pistol. This Llama pistol features a 5 1/8 inch barrel and has a fixed blade front sight and adjustable rear sight.
This handgun sports both a checkered front and back straps as well as walnut wood grips. It is fed with a detachable 6 round box magazine that is of the same size and dimensions as the Colt 1911 magazine. This pistol weighs in at about 30 ounces. Llama actually started manufacturing these handguns as the Model IX back in 1936, this Llama IX-A was manufactured in 1984. The GABILONDO Y CIA.
Or GABILONDO and Company was located in Vitoria Spain and is a firearms manufacturing company that was founded in 1904. They were known for manufacturing several models of both inexpensive pistols and revolvers prior to 1931. Then in 1931 the company began to produce a semi-automatic pistol based on the Colt model 1911 design. These copies of the 1911 style pistols were manufactured with great quality and care and have been sold around the world. After the Spanish civil war the GABILONDO company moved its facilities to Vitoria, Spain where they continued to produced handguns under the Llama trade name. Then in the 1980's the firm introduced a new line of pistols that were more modern in both design and function. Llama is now the trade name for handguns that are manufactured by Bersa in Argentina.
This next series of photographs show the stampings that are on the slide of this pistol. The markings in the picture on the left are as follows,GABILONDO Y CIA. VITORIA (ESPANA). While in the Photograph on the right the slide is stamped LLAMA CAL. Llama pistols built before 1936 will have slide markings that reads GABILONDO Y CIA.
ELOEIBAR (ESPANA) and be marked with the caliber of the handgun and the Llama name such as, CAL. The pistols that were built after 1936 will have slide markings that read LLAMA GABILONDO Y CIA. ELOEIBAR (ESPANA) and be marked with the caliber of the handgun such as CAL. Present day handguns will show a slide marking with either LLAMA CAL. 45 or, GABILONDO Y CIA.
VITORIA (ESPANA) and the Llama logo. The photograph on the left is a close up of the Llama logo that is found on both of the wood grips on this pistol.

The stampings that are on the frame in the picture on the right are proof marks and year of manufacture marks. Starting at the left and reading towards the right, the first symbol is a tad hard to make out in the photograph but it is a knights helmet and shield with the X inside. This is the admission proof mark that appears on Spanish handguns submitted to the official government proof house in Eibar Spain after July 9, 1931. All proofing of handguns in Spain still occurs in the city of Eibar at the Banco oficial de Pruebas(official proofhouse) and the same symbol is still applied to this very day. All of these stampings on this pistol have been double struck. If this was a coin, it would no doubt raise its value, but I doubt if it did that for this pistol.
The next symbol is the flaming bomb stamp which was first introduced on December 14, 1929. This stamp will either have the letter P inside the bomb for semi-automatic pistols or the letter R for revolvers. The flaming bomb proof indicated that a semi-automatic pistol was fired and had passed two proof loads, each of which was 30 percent more then the normal maximum operating pressure. This is then followed by two more rounds fired at normal pressure levels to determine whether the self loading mechanism is still functioning properly, if it was, then the stamp was applied to the firearm. For a revolver, where reloading takes place by means of the turning of a cylinder, an over pressure load is used.
I do not know if it is because of the double stamping that has occurred with these marks or some other factor, but there is no letter P inside of this mark on the above pistol. The next and last stamp is the date code. In the picture above, the square is actually the letter 'D' but in this case, the edge of the die has left an impression on the pistols frame and the stamp looks like a square. So the stamp is as follows, the letter 'D' then an.(asterisk) and then the number '2' as in 'D.2'.
This indicates that the pistol was manufactured in 1984. The letter for the date code with the asterisk on top is still in use to this very day. An interesting note is that Spain took longer to establish national proofing laws and standards for firearms then some of the other important firearms producing nations, notably Austria, Belgium, France, Germany and Great Britain. Although Spain began proof marking shotguns in 1910, it was not until July 18, 1923, nearly 5 years after the end of the first world war that Spain's proofing system for its pistols came into use.

The photograph on the left is a picture of the right side of the receiver just above the trigger. This is an importers stamp that is now required to be placed on firearms that have entered the U.S.
After the late 1980's. On the plus side, every marking on a firearm will help to tell us its history and this importers mark is no different.
With this importers mark, we now know that this Llama model IX-A came in to the U.S. Some time after the late 1980's. This import stamp reads as follows, 'STOEGER INDUSTRIES' and then underneath that is 'S.
Llama 22 Pistol Serial Numbers
HACKENSACK, N.J.' And then on the bottom of it all it is stamped 'Made in Spain'. This mark is what the law calls for except it would have been nice if the importer would have hid this stamp under the grips rather then stamping it on the side of the receiver. This stamp identifies the importer of this pistol as Stoeger Industries, and tells us that they are located in South Hackensack, New Jersey. Also complying with the law is the stamp at the bottom indicating that the firearm was manufactured in Spain. Today Stoeger Industries has offices in several states with their corporate office being located at 17603 Indian Head Hwy, Accokeek, MD 20607 and their telephone number is 800-264-4962. The import law that is mentioned above can be referenced by viewing the gun control Act of 1968, Public Law 90-618 and under Subpart F-Conduct of Business sub-section 178.92 (a)(1) Firearms.
The photograph on the right is of the butt or heel of the pistol with the magazine inserted. Here we can see that the magazine floorplate along with the bottom of the backstrap of the pistol has been stamped with 'MADE IN SPAIN'.
