Jan Valentine's Modified P90



A Modified P90 is Jan Valentine's signature weapon for much of the series. He is seen using two of these semi-automatics when he encounters the Hellsing troops.

Usage
Jan used these two guns during the Valentine Brother's raid on the the Hellsing compound. He takes down dozens of soldiers using these guns, easily slaughtering the ones his Ghouls hadn't already killed. They are later abandonned during the fight between himself, Walter C. Dornez, and Seras Victoria.

Specifications
The real-life P90, a personal defense fire-weapon (PDW) manufactured by FN Herstall in Belgium, was developed somewhere between 1986 and 1991. It features several innovations such as a top-mounted magazine and ambidextrous controls, notably taken advantage of by Jan Valentine when he wielded two of them in each hand at once. It is also notable that the ejection port for shells is located on the underside of the gun. Jan's modified version seems to have a suppressor as well, but neither the sound of the gunfire nor the amount of damage seems to be suppressed, as it sounds similar to a standard assault rifle when fired and tears through the Hellsing soldiers. However, it must be considered that Jan emptied a considerable amount of bullets into them.

Ammunition
The P90 uses bottlenecked 5.7x28mm cartridges, weighing half as much as typical 9x19mm cartridges and allowing extra ammunition to be carried more easily. It cartridge was created by FN in response to NATO requests for a replacement for the 9x19mm Parabellum cartridge. It also exhibits a flatter trajectory. The cartridge can also pierce through Kevlar protective vests, usually at a range of 200 m (655 ft).

The P90 uses a 50-round detachable box magazine and can fire 900 rounds per minute. It has an effective range of 200 m (655 ft), and a maximum range of 1.8 km (5,905 ft).
