Tommy Pistol is the stage name of an American pornographic actor and director. He was born as Aramis Sartorio on July 2, 1976 in Queens, New York. He entered the pornography business in late 2005, after meeting with Joanna Angel, founder of the alt-porn company Burning Angel. Angel was also responsible for choosing the moniker Tommy Pistol, after nixing A-Mac, Pistol's original name idea. He has won numerous industry awards in his time in the porn business and has also appeared in mainstream independent films.
