Will any stungun work? Because some guns have two prongs and others have four prongs. Does this make a difference? Please explain purpose of the extra two prongs on a four prong gun.

I'm pretty sure ( correct me if I'm wrong) that any stun gun would work. I'm not sure of the purpose of the two extra prongs, but I think only the lower two carry the spark.

the purpose of the 2nd prongs is to be the test electrodes, electricity follows the path of least resistance, so when you turn on a stungun the current is between the lower, close set of electrodes, when you would touch it to someone's skin, or in this case use wires to attatch it to the screws, the gap becomes smaller, and therefore offers less resistance, so the electricity passes thru the topmost elecrodes
