Black Cat (Japanese: ブラックキャット Hepburn: Burakku Kyatto?) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Kentaro Yabuki. It was originally serialized in Weekly Shōnen Jump magazine from July 2000 to June 2004, with the chapters collected into twenty tankōbon volumes by Shueisha. The story centers on an elite assassin named Train Heartnet who withdrew from an international group of peacekeepers called the Chronos Numbers to become a bounty hunter.
The series was adapted into a twenty-four episode anime series by Gonzo studio, which originally aired on Tokyo Broadcasting System (TBS) channel from October 2005 to March 2006.
The following firearms were seen in the anime television series Black Cat:
Train Heartnet A.K.A. Chronos Number XIII Black Cat wields the gun Hades, a fictional .45 caliber top-break revolver made of Orihalcum metal. The gun's design mixes double action revolver and semi-automatic pistol designs, as evidenced by the barrel. Black Cat uses this revolver with extreme accuracy; and because of the gun's super tough construction, he also uses it as an active melee weapon to pistol whip enemies with, as well as block sword blades and even bullets.
Gunslinger Durham Glaster wields an Artillery Colt SAA which is charged by his Chi power, enabling him to fire infinite bullets that are capable of not just destroying armored APCs, but even bend around Wanted style.
Sweeper Kevin McDougall brandishes a Smith & Wesson Model 29 revolver as his weapon, which he notably uses to put down a resurrected Tyrannosaurus Rex using a tranquilizer bullet.
