OPERATION OF THE LLAMA MODEL MINIMAX SUBCOMPACT – CAL. .45
TO LOAD: depress the magazine catch, which is located immediately behind the trigger. This
will unlock the magazine. To fill the magazine, place the cartridges so that the bullet ends are
positioned over the leading edge of the follower. Fill the magazine to capacity. Now take the
loaded magazine and slide it back into the lodging frame. When the magazine is pressed firmly
into position, you should hear a distinct “click”, which indicates that it is locked in place.
1. Be sure that the muzzle is pointing in a safe direction when loading.
2. Do not load or unload a gun inside a confined space such as a vehicle or a building (other
than a well-constructed shooting range), in an enclosed area, there is often no completely
safe direction to point a gun, and if accidentally fired, there is a great danger of personal
injury or property damage.
3. Clean all oil and grease from the chamber before loading, and be certain that nothing is
obstructing the barrel. Obstructions in the barrel can cause the barrel to bulge or burst, or
otherwise damage the gun and injure the shooter and bystanders.
CAUTION: the weapon is now in a firing attitude with the hammer in the full-cock position.
BE SURE TO ENGAGE THE SIDE SAFETY IF YOU DO NOT INTEND TO SHOOT.
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS OF SAFETY FOR FIREARMS
1. ALWAYS treat every gun as if it were loaded.
2. ALWAYS be sure the barrel is clear of any obstruction.
3. ALWAYS be sure of your backstop, what lies beyond and the safety of bystanders before
you shoot.
4. ALWAYS use clean, dry, original factory-made ammunition of the proper type and
caliber for your gun.
5. ALWAYS wear ear protection and shooting glasses when shooting.
6. ALWAYS carry your gun so that you can control the direction of the muzzle if you fail
or stumble.
7. ALWAYS leave the safety on until you intend to fire.
8. NEVER leave an unattended gun loaded. Guns and ammunition should be stored
separately, locked if possible, beyond the reach of children or careless adults.
9. NEVER allow your firearm to be used by anyone who has not read this Instruction
Manual.
10. NEVER point any gun, loaded or unloaded, at anything you do not intend to shoot.
EAR & EYE PROTECTION
Use ear plugs or “earmuff” type protectors to guard against permanent, cumulative hearing loss
that can result from repeated exposure to shooting noise. Shooting glasses will protect against
powder gas, carbon residue, lubricant, metal particles, or other debris that is occasionally emitted
from firearms in normal use.
Make sure that anyone near you is also wearing ear and eye protection.
SAFETY FEATURES: the LLAMA automatic pistol incorporates several positive safety
devices, which, if properly employed, will avoid the danger of accidental firing. These safety
devices are described below.
