Finally was left alone long enough to get my gun parts organized. Now I just gotta do this 2 more times for my other techs. I specialize in wunderbar and taprite barguns AMA

    That’s my favourite part 😂 it’s not a thing anyone thinks about outside the industry.

    I do want a tattoo that says “suns out, guns out” and it’s two barguns touching tips.

      Funnily enough a tattoo machine is often called a ‘tattoo gun’ too, although i believe tattoo artists prefer calling them tattoo machines.

        I think a lot of industries call their thing a gun actually. We use an android phone with a scanner at work for all sorts of things (product inventory, order management, assigning electronic tags, article lookups, etc) and most of us call it the gun. Its predecessor did look like a gun, so the origins of the name make sense, the name just stuck after we switched to a phone with a built-in scanner. We also have a date gun, which prints off best before date stickers.
