What's the best grease gun around ???

[Kidds]

Any one thats not empty

I have yet to see one. Do they actually exist?

Those pistol grips are great but sometimes you need a proper lever gun to get some pressure behind a blocked nipple. Jcb lever gun (free with two boxes blue grease) and a John deere pistol grip (and yes, my arse still hurts from that one)

Always end up buying longer pipes for them too if the the long pipe from the old one is shot.

Alemite lever job here ,well two actually ! But one has the name "Snap on" on it so that says a lot in my eyes..

I get on really well with the cheap and cheerful Mato ones. Just seem no air locks or hassle.

I bought a pistol grip Lube Shuttle after a similar thread on here in the past. I wouldn’t go back now as the job is so much cleaner & easier.

Grease cartridges are slightly dearer but if you have livestock you don’t get through too many.? If you miss getting covered in grease too much, I understand you can always save some pennies be refilling the cartridges.

Best I had was a wurth gun. Left it on the wing of the tractor while greasing the baler and drove off. Managed to find it again with the bale chopper. Bits of it blew holes in the cladding.

as I always recommend, alemite a500-never air locks, never jams, just put a cartridge in and pump it back out. first one that wasn't new did 7 years, second one did 4 years before I managed to damage the cylinder so now on number 3. tried a Milwaukee fuel one that the guy I was working for had brought but all it seemed to do was air lock and cover itself in grease, would have an alemite battery one but don't want a second set of batteries as I've already got Milwaukee tools.

Another vote for Milwaukee here. It’s worth every penny

Fuchs gun, long hose and G coupler nozzle.

I like the idea of battery operated guns but they are still messy things and I don't like to see bushes dripping in grease from an over enthusiastic greasing

Did you just replace it or have a look inside? It smelt like burning when it started it....its like some drive has stripped....
