Llama III-A
At the start of the film, Mendoza (Tobin Bell) hands Frank Horrigan (Clint Eastwood) a nickel plated Llama III-A to kill Al D'Andrea (Dylan McDermott) after he discovers he is a Secret Service agent. Frank weighs the gun as he approaches and convinces Mendoza he isn't Secret Service by clicking the gun to D'Andrea's head, aware it was in fact empty.

When at the hotel where the President is staying, Leary assembles the weapon under the party table (after practicing assembling it blind folded several times) and had previously hidden the ammunition in a rabbit's foot keychain, and the springs in a pen. The weapon appears to use .32 Smith & Wesson Long ammunition.

Unfortunately, it turned out that the assassin scrambled the trace and lead the Secret Service and the police to a completely different address.The IMI Uzi is also seen when the secret service agents are rushing the president out of the hotel after the assassination attempt (the agents by the kitchen door have them).
