The Ruby was one of Llama’s earliest pistols. Its design was inspired by Browning’s Model 1903 and chambered in .32 ACP. The French ordered 10,000 pistols per month, a number they soon increased to 30,000 and then 50,000. Llama ended up contracting with almost 50 other companies to attempt to meet the French contract’s stipulations.

The Ruby Plus Ultra did not come along until 1928 and was meant to be an improved, larger version of the original Ruby. It was also chambered in 32 ACP and came with a 22-round double stack magazine. There were various versions offered including an extended 140mm barrel model and one with select fire capabilities. The Ruby Plus Ultra was made between 1928 and 1933. Records show the latter was actually favored by and sold to a number of Chinese warlords and Japanese pilots.
