10 Coolest Guns In Anime History
5. The Casull And The Jackal - Hellsing Ultimate
What’s scarier than a vampire?
A vampire wielding dual semi-automatic combat pistols.
The Hellsing ARMS .454 Casull Auto and 13 mm Auto Anti-Freak Combat Pistol: Jackal (commonly referred to the Casull and the Jackal) are the custom long-barreled pistols used by Alucard. The weapons are incredibly heavy-duty and similarly imposing due to their 10 and 16-inch barrels respectively.
The custom-made explosive rounds used by both weapons were designed with the monsters and ghouls the Hellsing Organization are pitted against in mind. Comprised of various holy items including melted crosses, blessed silver, and blessed mercury to name a few, these rounds make quick work of most foes that are unlucky enough to get an up-close look.
While the silver Casull was Alucard’s first weapon, designed to dispatch mindless ghouls, the black gun-metal Jackal was designed with bigger and sturdier targets in mind. Both guns sport writing down their respective barrels. The Casull bares the gun’s official name with a series imprint, marking it as the first custom weapon designed by the Hellsing butler and ex-Vampire hunter, Walter C. Dornez.
The Jackal, more distinctly, carries the words “Jesus Christ is in Heaven now” – words taken from the gloves worn by Alexander Anderson, Alucard’s rival of the Iscariot organization, and the sole purpose of the Jackal’s creation.
