OK, settle a debate real quick. what is the proper way to pronounce Casull. I say "Ka-Sull" since there is no O in it.
I've heard others say "Ka-Sool".. Even heard one guy, being completely serious call it a .454 Casual. If he had ever shot one he would find out that there is nothing casual about it at all.

years ago. he introduced himself as Ka-sool. And yes there are illegitimate children whose mothers died 4 months before they were born that still call it casual.

Gary and John are right the correct way to pronounce Dick Casull is ( Dick Kah-sool ) I knew Dick back in the late 70s and early 80s talked to him a number of times he used to have a small gun shop in North Salt Lake called the great Salt Lake trading company. He had a three gun set of 454 casulls converted from Colts with five shot cylinders a 4 1/2 a 6 1/2 and a 8 inch in a display case that he wanted $1100 for, but there was no way at the time I had that kind of money. I really wanted them bad, I ended up buying a 357 colt trooper from him at that gun shop. Dick was a hell of a guy he’s going to be sorely missed.
