About
What it is, and why it matters
The Llama Scorpio is a compact .38 Special double-action revolver produced by Industria Militar de Colombia (Indumil) under the Llama brand. Built on a steel frame with a 2-inch (snub-nose) barrel and a six-round swing-out cylinder, it fires in both single and double action and is marketed as a lightweight, short-range personal-defense sidearm. It ships with fixed sights and a choice of wooden or polymer grips in blued or chrome finishes.
Though it carries the storied Spanish 'Llama' name, the Scorpio is actually built in Colombia by the state-owned arms maker Indumil, which kept the brand alive for its own revolvers long after the original Llama-Gabilondo works in the Basque Country shut down in 2005.
Sold on the Colombian civilian market by Indumil for personal defense; the Llama brand name was retained by Indumil for its revolver line after the original Spanish Llama-Gabilondo firm ceased operations. A .32 Largo chambering is also offered.

Trajectory
What the round does downrange
Solved from the muzzle figures and the bullet. The dashed rule is the effective range on the record, and the crosses are the steps the solver returned.
No load solved for this record yetThe flight path is computed from a cartridge and a bullet. This record has no ammunition filed against its chambering, so there is nothing to solve.
