Beholla
Notes:
This weapon was designed for use by the German military during World War
1 (one of at least 15 pistols used by the Germans during that war).
It was made by a dozen manufacturers, but only one after World War 1:
Leonhardt and Menz. These pistols,
despite their rather crude appearance, are tough and reliable and many are in
the hands of European civilians to this day.

Campo-Giro M-1913
Notes:
One of dozens of pistols used by the Spanish military before World War 2,
the Campo-Giro was named for its designer, the Count of Campo-Giro.
The first prototypes were shown in 1903, but production did not begin
until 1910 – and it was pretty low-rate production at that. In 1912, full
production began, and in 1913, issue to the Spanish Army began. It was the
predecessor of several later Astra designs, most notably the Astra 400.
The Campo-Giro is entirely recoil-operated, relying on a very powerful
recoil spring to operate the mechanism. It had numerous design defects and was
revised repeatedly until 1921, when production was finally stopped.

Eibar
Notes:
The Eibar is almost exclusive to Spain.
Due to the virtually nonexistent patent laws in Spain in the early 20th
century, scores of Spanish firearms makers produced copies of the Browning
M-1903 and M-1906, and these copies are collectively known as “Eibars.”
Most of these gunmakers built the Eibars in response to the needs of the
French and Italian armies during World War 1, but production went on until the
Spanish Civil War. The Eibars will
have the same basic design, but may vary wildly in finish, materials, quality,
and other details.

Firestorm
Notes: Firestorm
Inc. split off from Astra in the late 1990s, and has since been producing its
own firearms and distributing them through SGS in the United States.
Their namesake pistol is the Firestorm, a compact DA pistol of largely
steel construction. There are some
passive safeties, a decocker, a manual safety, and a manual slide release.
In addition, the Firestorm has a mechanism that locks the hammer,
trigger, and firing pin with a key inserted into the grip.
Grips are anatomically-shaped rubber, and sights are 3-dot combat-type
sights. Barrel length is 3.5
inches. Finishes may be matte
black, bright nickel, matte nickel, or duo-tone (a matte black frame with either
a bright or matte nickel slide).
The
Mini-Firestorm is actually about the same size as the Firestorm, and actually
fires larger calibers than the basic Firestorm.
The Firestorm and Mini-Firestorm are basically the same, but the
Mini-Firestorm uses white outline target-type sights.

Gabilondo Plus Ultra
Notes: Gabilondo
is an Eibar-based company founded in 1904 to produce inexpensive revolvers, and
is actually the parent company of several of the other companies listed here
(such as Llama and Eibar), as they soon found themselves so swamped with orders
that they had to greatly expand their business as well as subcontracting their
work to possibly as many as a dozen other gunmaking companies.
One of their more unusual-looking pistols was the Plus Ultra.
The Plus Ultra
was based, as many Spanish pistols of the period, on the Browning M-1903, but
differed in minor details internally and externally looked quite different, and
a bit strange. Built from 1925-33,
it figured heavily in the Spanish Civil War, particularly with the International
Brigades. (Rumors say that the Plus
Ultra was originally designed for export to the Japanese Military, but this is
considered unlikely.) Most of the Plus Ultra looks like a conventional
Eibar-type M-1903 clone, but the grip is abnormally long, in order of
accommodate a single-stack 20-round magazine.
Despite this unorthodox construction, it actually sold pretty well –
mainly because many Spanish troops and civilians equated a pistol’s size with
it’s quality – to them “big” equaled “good.”
Except for the long magazine and grip, the Plus Ultra was essentially a
conventional Eibar-type M-1903 clone.
Construction is basically of steel, with bakelite pistol grip plates and
a 5-inch barrel.

Llama Large Frame/Small Frame Series
Notes: This
Llama series of automatic pistols is based on the Colt M-1911, but there are
numerous differences internally, and the Llama series was produced in a very
wide variety of sizes and calibers.
The first of this Llama series of pistols, was introduced in 1931, and the
series went on from there, through the Max series (which is dealt with in a
separate entry below). They were
used both by Spanish forces and exported far and wide, especially to North,
Central, and South America. (In the
US, they were imported by Stoeger prior to 1993, and by Import Sports after
1993, though they are marked “Made in Spain” to comply with US regulations.)
The Llama Large
Frame models follow to a great extent the design of the M-1911, but some were
built with grip safeties, and some without them.
A few are double-action weapons, but most were single-action designs like
the M-1911. Small Frames, on the
other hand, were mostly simple blowback-operated pistols with considerable
differences internally from the original M-1911 design.
Like the Large Frames, some do not use
grip safeties, and some were not single-action designs.
The Model I was
produced starting in 1933, and manufactured until 1954.
It is considered a small-frame model, with a 3.62-inch barrel and firing
a relatively small cartridge. It
does not have a grip safety. In
1954, it was replaced by the Model I-A; this is basically the same weapon with
the addition of a grip safety, and was manufactured until 1976.
(Both are identical for game purposes.)
The Model II, relatively unsuccessful due to mechanical problems, was
introduced at the same time, but was discontinued in 1937.
It has no grip safety. The
Model III replaced the Model II, correcting the mechanical problems of the Model
II, and was manufactured until 1954.
(The Model II and III are identical for game purposes).
The Model III-A replaced the Model III in 1955, and added a grip safety,
and later a ventilated aiming rib atop the slide and checkered polymer grip
plates with a thumbrest at the bottom.
Late production Model III-As were also quite a bit heavier than the
early-production Model III-As; early production Model III-As are also identical
to the Model II and Model III for game purposes.
Late production Model III-As were manufactured until at least 1998,
though they were possibly built in small amounts until the early 2000s.
The Model IV was
not only the first of these Llama pistols (introduced in 1931, and manufactured
until 1954), it was a large frame model.
Though it was not chambered for .45 ACP, it was produced in two
chamberings, one of which was the powerful 9mm Largo round.
The Model IV had no grip safety.
The Model V was built specifically for export to the US; markings are in
English, and it is chambered for a different round than the Model IV.
It was introduced a few months after the Model IV, and produced until
1954. The Model VI is also
virtually the same as the Models IV and V, but chambered for a different
cartridge than the Model V, and it was exported to a number of countries other
than the US. In 1932, the Model VII
variant of the Model IV was introduced for the powerful .38 Super round.
The Model VIII is basically a version of the Model VII chambered for
three different cartridges. It was
introduced until 1935 until 1954, when it was replaced by the improved Model
VIII-A. It was produced until 1976, when it was replaced by the Model VIII-C;
this was simply a re-styled Model VIII-A so that it looked more like the Colt
M-1911A1, but was also a physically shorter weapon and uses a large-capacity
double-stack magazine. It was produced until 1992.
(All three Model VIII versions are identical, except for their
chamberings, for game purposes.)
Except for the Model VIII-A and VIII-C, none of these versions have grip
safeties. The large-frame models of
these pistols generally had 5-inch barrels.
Another
large-frame offering was the Model IX, produced from 1936-54.
It was originally introduced only in .45 ACP, but more chamberings were
later offered. The Model IX had no
grip safety, but in 1954 it was replaced by the Model IX-A, which did have a
grip safety, and was produced from 1954-76.
It was chambered only for .45 ACP.
(The Model IX-A is otherwise identical to the Model IX for game
purposes.) The Model IX-B was a
modernized IX-A produced from 1976-92, and had an extended spur hammer, extended
slide release, and checkered black plastic grip plates instead of the smooth
wooden ones of earlier models. In
1977, the Model IX-C was introduced; it is essentially a Model IX-B with a
slightly wider grip to accommodate a larger-capacity magazine, a ventilated
sighting rib atop the slide, 3-dot sights, rubber grips instead of plastic, and
a slightly longer 5.125-inch barrel.
The Model IX-D was a compact version of the IX-C, with a 4.25-inch barrel
and otherwise retaining the features of the Model IX-C.
The rear sights of the Model IX-C and IX-D are adjustable; the rest have
fixed rear sights.
The Model X was
built from 1935-54; despite being built on the large frame, it fired a rather
weak cartridge -- .32 ACP. It has
no grip safety, but the Model X-A, built from 1954-76, did have a grip safety.
The two are identical for game purposes.
The Model XI,
also called the Llama Especial or Llama Special, was in many ways different from
all the other pistols of this series.
Built on the large frame, it is the only pistol of this series to fire
the 9mm Parabellum cartridge, and it differs in external form from the others.
The grip frame had a finger rest at the bottom; it used a “Commander”
type loop hammer instead of a spur hammer; the grip plates were of
vertically-grooved walnut of good quality wood; finally, the grip was extended
to allow the use of a somewhat larger magazine.
While it had no grip safety, the Model XI-A, replacing the Model XI in
1954, did; another variant is the Model XI-B, which has a 4.25-inch barrel and a
spur hammer. Both use
target-quality barrels. The Model
XI-A and Model XI-B are still being produced today, and they are regarded as
some of the finest 9mm Parabellum pistols ever designed.
The Model XII-B
is built on the small frame, but uses a variant of the large frame’s action; it
was introduced in 1990 and is still in production.
The Model XV is
one of the smallest-caliber versions of this series; it fires .22 Long Rifle
ammunition, and is built on a small frame.
Options for the Model XV abound, including different finishes, sights,
and grip plates. The Model XVI is a
deluxe version of the Model XV, with engraving, a ventilated sighting rib atop
the slide, adjustable sights, and ergonomic grips.
The Model XVII is even smaller, chambered for .22 Short ammunition; the
grip has finger swells and is ergonomically designed primarily for those with
smaller hands. The Model XVIII
variant is virtually the same as the Model XV, but chambered for .25 ACP.
The Model XVIII can be had blued, chromed, or even with a gold-plated
finish. All of these pistols were
introduced in 1955, and are still in production.

Llama Max Series
Notes: The Max
series is essentially a modern version of the Large Frame/Small Frame series
above. One of the biggest
alternations to the original weapons (at least externally), is that they have
been re-shaped to look even more like the M-1911A1.
In addition, a skeleton hammer similar to that fitted to the earliest
versions of the M-1911 was added to most versions, they have extended manual
safeties as well as a larger beavertail grip and grip safety, and for most
models, the rear sight is adjustable, with a blade front sight.
Grip plates are of black rubber, and construction is otherwise of steel.
The external metal is made of blued carbon steel or stainless steel,
though they can also be had with a blued carbon steel slide and a stainless
steel frame.
The Max-I L/F is
Llama’s equivalent of the full-sized M-1911A1; it has a slightly longer barrel
than the M-1911A1 at 5.125 inches.
The Max-I comes primarily in .45 ACP, but is also available in 9mm Parabellum,
and from 2001 onward, .40 Smith & Wesson.
There is also a Max-I Compensator version; this is a standard Max-I L/F
with a three-port compensator added to the muzzle, and a rear sight which is
micrometer-adjustable. A Max-I C/F
(Compact Frame) version is also made, which has a 4.25-inch barrel and a
Commander-type loop hammer, but is otherwise identical to the Max-I L/F.
The Max-I L/F and C/F were introduced in 1995, but the Compensator
version waited until 1996. The C/F
stopped production in 2001, but it picked up again in 2003.
All three are still being manufactured.
1996 also
brought the Mini-Max, a more compact version of the Max-I with an even shorter
3.5-inch barrel. The shorter grip
contains a smaller magazine. Sights
are fixed, the grip plates are of checkered rubber, and the front of the trigger
guard is squared to allow the shooter to use the finger of his nonfiring hand to
help steady the weapon. Finish of
the exterior metal is the same as the Max-I, with the addition of a satin
stainless steel finish (or a duo-tone finish with the frame in satin stainless
steel). The 9mm Parabellum was not
produced after 1997; the other two chamberings are still in production.
In 1999, the Mini-Max Subcompact was introduced; this model has only a
3.14-inch barrel, but uses a double-stack magazine with an astounding capacity
for a weapon of its small size. In
addition, 1999 brought the Mini-Max II, which uses the Mini-Max Subcompact’s
double-stack magazine, but is otherwise identical to the Mini-Max.
In 1997, the Max
series equivalent of the former small frame Llama pistols was introduced; this
pistol is called the Micro-Max. The
Micro-Max fires smaller calibers than the Mini-Max, and has a 3.6-inch barrel.
The Micro-Max uses a Commander-type loop hammer, 3-dot-type fixed sights,
and black polymer grip plates along with a grip having a thumbrest shaped into
the bottom. The external metal is
finished blued or satin chromed.
Twilight 2000
Notes: None of these pistols are available in .40 Smith & Wesson in the Twilight
2000 timeline. All of these pistols
are quite rare in the Twilight 2000 timeline, with the Max-I Compensated and the
Mini-Max being especially rare. The
Mini-Max Subcompact and the Mini-Max II are not available in the Twilight 2000
timeline.

Llama Omni Series
Notes: The Omni
was a rather interesting pistol in many ways; externally, it looked like another
loose M-1911 clone, but internally, the mechanism was quite different.
The Omni was double-action, with the slide mounted on roller bearings.
This was combined with a standard Colt/Browning breech lock/link.
The steel construction was finished in blue, and the rear sight was
adjustable; the front sight was a blade mounted on a low rib.
The barrel was 4.25 inches, and the trigger guard was squared-off to help
the non-firing hand stabilize the pistol.
The hammer is shrouded. The Omni was produced in three versions, with the
Omni I being by far the most common.
They were produced from 1982 to early 1986.
The M-82 was a
highly-modified Omni; it did away with the roller bearings and used a dropping
wedge breech lock based partially on the Walther P-38 and partially on the
Beretta M-92. The barrel was also
fixed into the frame. This
increased reliability of both operation and extraction/ejection.
The safety was combined with the slide lock, and was made ambidextrous.
Sights were fixed and of the 3-dot-type.
Finish was satin or bright chromed, and civilian versions could be had
with a steel or alloy frame. The
M-82 was adopted by the Spanish Army in 1985, but was not sold on the commercial
market until 1988; it was manufactured primarily until 1992, though a few were
built to replace worn out Spanish Army M-82s after that.
The M-87 is a competition version of the M-82, built only with a steel
frame and with a 6-inch barrel tipped with a combination
counterweight/compensator. The
magazine release and slide lock/safety are extended and ambidextrous, and the
magazine well is beveled. The rear sight is adjustable, and the frond sight is
dovetailed into the slide. The
trigger is adjustable length and weight of pull.
The M-87 was introduced in 1989, and primarily built until 1992, though
some were built after that by special order.
The M-87 ISU Match is a rare variant of the M-87, with no
compensator/counterweight, micrometer-adjustable sights, and 10-round magazines
to comply with the regulations of certain pistol matches (though they can still
accept the 14-round magazines of the M-87, and vice versa).
Twilight 2000
Notes: It was quite common for Spanish military officers to acquire M-87s in
place of their M-82s in the Twilight 2000 timeline.

Mugica Perfect
Notes: Jose
Mugicar was an Eibar-based gunsmith who, in addition to having arrangements to
build and sell certain Llama designs on the civilian market (most notably the
Large Frame/Small Frame series above), also built a number of pistols based on
the ubiquitous “Eibar” design. One
of these was the Perfect; it was of better quality than the Eibar, but still of
rather cheap quality. The Perfect
looks like what it is – a somewhat better-quality version of the Eibar, designed
for small calibers. The barrel is 4
inches, and the construction is largely of steel of fair quality.
The markings are also unusual; though most have the word “PERFECT”
stamped into the bakelite grip plates, and the appropriate places have the
caliber stamped on them, they may or may not carry serial numbers, and could be
marked “MUGICA”, “MUGICA – EIBAR,” “MUGICA – MADE IN SPAIN,” or nothing stamped
on the slide, and these markings could be on the left side, right side, or top
of the slide, and not necessarily on the same place on each pistol.
The Perfect was built primarily from the mid-1920s to mid-1930s, and sold
reasonably-well. However, due to
their poor construction, working and reliable versions are somewhat difficult to
find today.
