Frequently Asked Questions

What caliber is the Stinger Pen Pistol?

The Stinger Pen Pistol is chambered in .22 Long Rifle (.22 LR). It is a single-shot firearm designed to be compact and concealable, transforming from a pen-like object into a functional handgun.

How does the Stinger Pen Pistol transform and operate?

To operate, the barrel unscrews for loading a single .22 LR round. The firearm must then be pulled apart and bent into a specific configuration to expose the trigger and allow it to be fired.

What were the results of the ballistics gel testing?

In ballistics gel tests, a 40-grain hollow point .22 LR round achieved significant penetration and a visible muzzle blast. Interestingly, a 40-grain round nose round showed slightly less penetration in this specific short-barrel application.

Is the Stinger Pen Pistol safe for self-defense?

The review highlights significant safety concerns, particularly the ease of accidental finger placement near the trigger or muzzle during transformation. Its limited penetration against vehicle doors also questions its effectiveness for serious self-defense scenarios.
