An integral ear piercing system for easily piercing body parts in a sterile manner, comprising:
- a pierced earring stud, said earring stud having a head coupled to a post, said post comprising a wider, main post extending from said head, a sloping stop extending from said main post, said sloping stop engaging a flange surrounding an aperture in a pierced earring clutch, a narrower clutch spring post extending from said sloping stop, a piercing point coupled to said clutch spring post, said wider main post and said narrower clutch spring post mediated by said sloping stop, said sloping stop sloping at an angle of approximately fifteen degrees (15.degree.) with respect to said clutch spring post and having a slope approximately thirty-nine thousandths inch (0.039") in length, said sloping stop slope and angle sufficiently gradual to avoid trapping and/or pinching flesh between said sloping stop and said clutch flange when said post pierces flesh to form a temporary wound that upon healing allows attachment of said earring stud to tissue adjacent said temporary wound;
- a disposable and sterilizable blister pak holding said earring stud in a sterile environment until said earring stud is ready for use, said blister pak including a base for holding said earring stud and a sealed case sealingly surrounding said base and preserving said sterile environment about said earring stud until ready for use, said base having a notch and said case having a flexible dimple engaging said notch so that when said case is opened, said base is removably retained by said dimple to preserve sterility and prevent accidental contamination of said earring stud, said dimple retaining said base until said base is intentionally removed from said case, said base holding said earring clutch, a second earring clutch, and a second earring stud so that said blister pak supplies two complete and sterile pierced earrings, said base having graspable means for manual engagement by a person, said graspable means coupled to said base and allowing said person to manually engage said base without destroying sterility or accidentally contaminating said earrings and said clutches held by said base, said base holding said earring stud in an earring stud holding slot, said earring stud holding slot securely but releasably holding said earring stud so that when said earring stud is engaged, said earring stud is easily removable from a secure mount provided for said earring stud by said earring stud holding slot, said base having color indicia corresponding to said earring stud, said indicia indicating a type of said earring stud;
- a stud gun for piercing body parts with said earring stud, said stud gun having outer and inner jaws movable together and apart with respect to each other to snugly engage and hold still a body part for piercing with said earring stud, one of said jaws including a spring, said spring configured to resiliently engage said body part to provide better engagement by said jaws of said body part when said jaws move towards each other to snugly engage and hold still said body part, said stud gun having earring stud engagement means for engaging said earring stud and earring clutch engagement means for engaging said earring clutch, said earring clutch engagement means aligned with said earring stud engagement means so that said earring stud may be driven by said earring stud engagement means to pierce said body part and engage said aperture in said earring clutch, said stud gun having interchangeable earring stud engagement means plugs for engaging said pierced earring stud and said stud gun, said interchangeable earring stud engagement means plugs removably engaging a stud gun pin of said stud gun, each of said plugs for engaging a different type of earring stud, said stud gun internally storing one of said plugs when not in use, each of said plugs having corresponding plug color indicia, said plug color indicia indicating a type of earring stud corresponding to said plug, said plug color indicia corresponding to a color of said base, said base color corresponding to said type of said earring stud so that said person wielding said stud gun can easily and visually determine an appropriate plug for said earring stud by matching said base color to said plug indicia color;
- wherein in use,
- said jaws of said stud gun being cleaned, said blister pak opened and said base removed from said case to expose said sterile earring stud, said stud gun engaging said earring stud in a sterile manner for piercing said body part, said body part made sterile before piercing;
- whereby
- said body part may be pierced in a sterile manner by said stud gun to reduce or preclude chances of deleterious results, while said sloping stop prevents tissue trapping between said post and said clutch flange.
