  1. Go deep underground until you find a Shadow Orb. A Musket will most likely drop out, allowing you to get the Arms Dealer.
  2. There's a 100% chance of The Undertaker (a kind of pistol) dropping out of every first Crimson Heart you destroy.
  3. . Then, explore the Dungeon until you find the Handgun. The Handgun is slightly more difficult to obtain than the two guns mentioned above.
  4. . The Phoenix Blaster is obtained by combining the Handgun and a few Hellstone bars at the Iron/Lead anvil.
  5. There's a 20% chance that he'll drop the Stinger.

    It depends. You must make a house for him, have a gun in your inventory, and it must be a day for him to spawn. You also must have the house off-screen by running away a couple of meters.
