Trivia
- A crafted vampire face figure can be seen on the weapon and a bat figure on top of the grenade.
- The idea of "collecting blood from enemy" from this weapon may be inspired from vampire tales.
- The shooting sound is similar to M1 Garand.
- This weapon is the first weapon in the game to be primarily used in the left hand when right-handed mode is selected, and vice versa, the second being Python Desperado's white pistol.
- The explode sprite is identical to Holy Bomb, but red in color and much larger.
- This is the first weapon to include both pistol and grenade in the same weapon slot. It is also composed with two models: pistol and grenade.
- In Zombie Hero and Zombie Scenario mode, the splash damage is the biggest than any other grenades.
- During its debut in South Korea region, the Silver Luger and Holy Bomb is released in Counter-Strike Nexon: Zombies in the following week.
- Unlike other weapons in the Transcendence Series, this weapon does not have a glowing effect. It only has an almost unnoticeable chrome effect.
- Oddly, in Zombie Scenario, user also can collect blood by shooting at destructable structures.
- This also works on enemies with respawn protection in TDM/Original and bosses even if they're immune to any shots.
- When enhanced, its magazine size increases to 45.
- After enhancement, the silver circles on the barrel now have a pair eye appearance.
- Strangely when the grenade is thrown at humans on Zombie Mode with friendly fire on, they will be knocked back.
