The H&K MG4 is a 5.56mm light machine gun adopted by Germany, Spain, and Portugal. It features an open-bolt, rotating bolt, and gas-piston operation with a quick-change barrel system that allows removal regardless of bolt position. The fire control is limited to safe and full-auto, and it utilizes a proven belt-feed mechanism derived from older H&K designs.

The Llama M87 was an early 'out of the box' competition pistol based on the Beretta 92, featuring upgrades like adjustable sights, a refined trigger, and ambidextrous safety for IPSC. Despite its advanced features for the early 1990s, including a high MSRP, it faced commercial failure due to import bans, evolving competition needs, and a lack of 'Major' caliber options.

The Star Model 1920 is a Spanish locked-breech pistol, mechanically similar to the Colt 1911 but with distinct differences like a slide-mounted safety and no grip safety. Initially tested by the Spanish Army, it was adopted by the Guardia Civil. Later iterations, like the Model 1921 (Model A), incorporated requested upgrades such as a grip safety and adjustable sights, eventually leading to its adoption by the Spanish Army post-WWII.
