UPDATE OCTOBER 2020: The Hustler Bang Bang Bullet is no longer in production. This bullet vibrator remains as a reference for those who want more information about this sex toy.
The Hustler Bang Bang Bullet is a remote-controlled bullet made by Hustler. It is sold by Olympus Toys. It’s classified in their line as an “Intermediate” toy. The bullet is waterproof, and the bullet is about 3 inches long and wider than an average bullet. The remote is also about three inches long, and it’s much skinnier than the bullet. Both pieces are made from plastic, and the bullet includes a silicone retrieval cord. The batteries needed to operate the item are included with the toy.
The packaging for the Hustler Bang Bang Bullet is a lot larger than it needs to be. It’s a large, plastic box. The remote and the bullet both come in a tray that slides out from the box. The box is completely black and classy with a see-through window on the front to display the toy. Inside the packaging, there’s the bullet, the remote, and some instructions as well as the batteries for both. As the box is about ten times bigger than the items themselves, you may not want to keep the box for long-term storage. A slight annoyance is that, with the way they attached the instruction manual to the storage tray, it ends up taping the instruction manual shut, so you don’t have to get some scissors to open the instructions. The instructions are just general to all of the toys in their line, so it’s not as useful as it could be, but it does also include information about their warranty.
Wireless bullets can certainly be fun. After all, who doesn’t want to be able to have their partner control their pleasure – and from a distance? This set is supposed to make that possible! I wouldn’t recommend this for clitoral use. Although the toy is called a “bullet”, the shape is much more like an “egg”. A bullet would be small enough to probably slip into panties without too much of a bulge. Because this bullet is about 3/4 inch in diameter, it will definitely leave a bulge in your panties that may be noticable. Plus, with the included retrieval string, it seems like this bullet was meant to be inserted for vaginal use rather than external use.
Both pieces of this set seem well-made. The bullet does include a silicone retrieval string to make it really easy to get the vibrator back out after you’re done playing. I’ve tugged on the string really hard both during use and just sitting around for testing purposes, and the string doesn’t appear to detach easily. It looks like it is a part of the entire silicone band that runs around the toy (the grey/black portions). The remote is pretty small and discreet, and it contours nicely to your hand. The only complaint I have about the remote is that it says “Hustler” on it and is bright pink, so if you take it out in public and someone sees it, it’s much more noticeable what it is. However, it is a pretty small size and the buttons don’t press down too easily, so it will work nicely in pockets.
This vibrator takes two different batteries: one for the remote and one for the bullet. All of the needed batteries are included. The remote requires a 12 volt 23A battery while the bullet will use 2 N batteries. Inserting the battery is extremely easy in the remote while inserting the battery in the bullet can be a bit more difficult. It can be hard to get the slipcover top of the bullet to slide off (and then slide back on!) like it should. It’ll take a couple tries (and is nearly impossible to do when your hands are lubricated, so think ahead!), but it’ll go on after a bit.
The vibrations are relatively strong. They are on the stronger side of moderate in terms of strength. These vibrations probably won’t get you to orgasm (especially when inserted), but they certainly feel pleasurable, and they’re strong enough that you won’t “forget” them easily. They also, unfortunately, are a bit on the louder side. You can barely hear the softest setting in a quiet room when it’s inserted, but you can definitely hear the medium and louder settings once it is inserted. While this doesn’t matter much at your home, if you wanted to use this in public, it would. It’s certainly not loud enough to be distracting during play though. If used externally, some women may be able to orgasm from the bullet’s vibrations, and if you normally orgasm from vaginal stimulation, you may be able to orgasm from them as well.
The remote makes it easy to control the vibrations. There are two buttons: an on button and a function button. The remote fits discreetly into your hand, and you just have to press the on button to turn on the vibrator. When on, the blue back-lit light on the remote will turn on. From there, you can use the function button to further adjust the vibrations of the toy.
The remote-controlled aspect works surprisingly well! Across the apartment (20 feet and through a wall), the vibrator still will respond well to the remote. It responds best if you’re using it externally, but it still responds okay when it is inserted. Sometimes it requires an extra push on the button to make it respond when inserted, but it does end up responding which is great. It responds better than a lot of the remote-controlled bullets I’ve tried, so I’m impressed.
For this bullet, your best use would be inside the house. The bullet is a bit loud to actually be used out in public on most of the settings. Inside the house, though, you can have fun making your partner orgasm while doing housework or just from across the room. Since it’s best to make sure that the bullet couldn’t be heard if you were going to use this in public, I’d recommend that you probably use this just in your house instead. You can certainly get away with using this in public but ONLY on the lowest setting and if there is some moderate noise going on (restaurant, club, etc.).
Cleaning this bullet can be relatively easy. The bullet is supposed to be waterproof, but I do attempt to avoid getting water all over the bullet. Definitely avoid getting water on the remote as it isn’t meant to be waterproof. In fact, avoid getting messes on the remote completely as it’s a bit harder to clean because of the waterproof issue. You can use warm water and antibacterial soap to clean the toys. As it’s plastic, it is compatible with all different types of lubricant. At the same time, because it is plastic, you can store it wherever you’d like as it won’t pick up any lint or fuzz. You can easily keep it in an underwear drawer. For longer-lasting batteries, make sure to remove the batteries after each use so they don’t drain.
Overall, I like the Hustler Bang Bang Bullet, but it’s certainly not suitable for using it in public. It works okay for in the home, and it’s especially friendly because of the easy-to-use design and the cute, pink color. The batteries are a bit odd in sizing, but most remote-controlled bullets have that issue. If you want something that will work well for at-home play, the Hustler Bang Bang bullet certainly fits the bill.
