Prison tattoo gun
Street and prison gang members use tattoos for several reasons.Many members, particularly if the gang has a propensity for violence, will have the gang name tattooed in large bold letters so that other persons or gang members will know what gang the person represents.
Prison tattoos speak a language all their own – and it’s often a coded one.
Street and Prison Gang Tattoos often vary according to nationality, though a few symbols seem to be universal.
-Russian Prison Tattoos
– Show the prisoner’s rank and position within the prison system, something which was often a source of pride rather than shame.

-Mexican prison tattoos tell the story of the inmates life
Prisoners have some standard designs for tattoos. For example spider webs on the shoulders mean doing time while tombstones with numbers mean how many years the prisoner spent in a penitentiary.
As it is difficult to get ink inside the prison most of the prison tattoo design would be made in either black or blue. Ink is made in a crude fashion by melting rubber or candles. This is then mixed with water and used. In case a motor is not available the whole process becomes very slow as compared to a tattoo gun. But in the absence of a motor, the tattooing process is very quiet as it should be in a prison.
