This full-size IX-A retains the familiar 1911 operation with a single-action trigger and a 7+1 capacity in .45 ACP. The Government-length 5-inch barrel uses a standard barrel bushing with a checkered recoil spring plug, keeping the classic 1911 layout intact. The steel frame and slide wear a blued finish, consistent with the model’s period and configuration.
The slide is outfitted with a full-length, serrated, solid rib to reduce glare, complemented by vertical rear slide serrations for sure manipulation. Sights include a ramped front blade and an adjustable rear sight that is screw-elevatable, providing a precise and tunable sight picture for the shooter.
Controls are true to the platform: a left-side, frame-mounted thumb safety, slide stop, push-button magazine release, spurred hammer, and a pivoting trigger. Grip panels are black checkered synthetic with molded Llama logo medallions for a secure hold and brand-correct presentation.
Markings are clear and well-defined. The left slide reads "LLAMA CAL.45" and the right slide reads "GABILONDO Y CIA VITORIA (ESPAÑA)." The pistol bears the Stoeger Industries import stamp "STOEGER INDUSTRIES S. HACKENSACK, N.J., MADE IN SPAIN." Made in Spain, this IX-A presents an identifiable combination of features and markings that enthusiasts of the model will recognize.
