tattoo gun
Skin art tool
A tattoo gun is the handheld electric device used to inject ink under the skin.
A cluster of needles moves rapidly up and down, puncturing the skin thousands of times per minute to deposit pigment.
Professional tattoo artists often prefer the term tattoo machine, finding "gun" imprecise or amateurish.
