I've got a couple of those myself and I have to say, this one is what it's cracked up to be. Doesn't stick to fittings, doesn't leak, doesn't need 3 hands to grease
If you end up snagging one, please post back here and let us know your thoughts, same to anyone who orders one

I wouldn't mind one of those locking fittings, if it was on a dedicated gun for "bothersome" fittings.  |
Hmm a decent grease gun...I want an electric one (or pneumatic), that will last longer than 3 tubes of grease, and...well, that's about it. I currently have just one gun and it's been good for me for a couple years. It really bugs me because when I got my own place many years ago, my dad gave me one of his borderline "family heirloom) grease guns. You know the tool, it was made when tools were made to last! What gets me is that during a move to my current house, I lost it somehow
went through a couple guns since the move until I found the one I have now that is at least half way decent.
Anywho, my dedicated gun for "bothersome" fittings is my only gun
