Llama IX-A

What appears to be a Llama IX-A 1911-style pistol is seen being pulled on Pangborn by Brian Rusk (Shane Meier). This gun is also brandished by "Buster" (J.T. Walsh). The pistol has been bright chrome-plated, though some of the controls such as the extractor and the hammer, appear to remain blued.

Brian fires the Llama. The slide ribbing can be seen much closer here, and, even though it is a blurry split-second shot, you can note the markings: GABILONDO Y CIA. VITORIA (ESPANA). Translated from Spanish into English, this means that the pistol was manufactured in Vitoria, Spain.

What appears to be two Colt Single Action Army revolvers can be briefly seen on the wall in Leland's office. They are hard to spot, so they could also be two Colt 1860 Army revolvers.
