    I too will be interested in knowledgable input here. I've heard that the LLama was a good gun and under rated but never owned one. Jeff Cooper has mentioned it favorably, years ago, before there were so many high profile 1911 clones and custom race-guns to distract us from meat and potatoes.ranahan

    They usually function OK.They don't take GI parts.You can get a Norinco or Argie systema for $250 to $300.cpermd

    Gun test mag found that the LLama functioned fine, but the slide on the one they had was unevenly machined causing it to shoot 7" left of the aim point. Perhaps just one that slipped past quality control?
