Answers so far look correct. Take it to a gunsmith and he can quickly tell you what ammo it chambers.....most likely .380acp. Buy some overpriced ammo from the nice man and thank him.

Sounds like you have a Spanish-made Llama semi-automatic pistol. If so then it probably has stamped on the side: 9 mm corto, and .380 (with the zero probably just worn out or just plain faded).
"Corto" is Spanish for 'short' and a .9mm Short is by definition a .380 acp. The manufacturer of these European pistols traditionally stamp the European calibration and also the American equivalent since a lot of their market is importation to the USA. You might also see ".9 mm Kurtz and .380" on German guns.
I once owned a Mauser pistol stamped: ".9 mm Kurtz and .38 acp." Turns out that the "0" broke off the dye and an unknown number of Mausers got out stamped '.38 ' rather than '.380' acp.

Llama made several models of 9mm pistols and they work pretty good. It says 9mm and that means 9mm Parabellum (aka 9mm Luger), not 9mm Kurz or Corto or .380. And a 9mm Para should not fit in the chamber of a .380 and a .380 will not fit right in a 9mm Para chamber. More info will be needed to tell you more about it (model #, bbl. length, etc.).

I would bet the first answer is correct. It's probably a 9mm short, which is the same as a .380 auto.

If it also says Especiale then it is .38 Super.
