What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
This gun is expensive, but appears to be well made. It is easy to load, easy to use. Great quality, solid and just feels good in your hand.
The nozzle has a secure grip onto zerks limiting leakage around zerk. Can hold the flex hose on a worn zerk while pumping the gun with the other hand. Has a high pressure/high flow lever.
Dual leverage, volume or pressure mode is useful. The middle red squirt is from the alemite *-grip on the volume setting. Singel hand operation due to the grip handle.
Cons
The industrial grease gun is made in china. The extension hose seems to be made cheap but the coupler is adjustable.

The flimsy rubber piston seal came off the piston with the first tube of greased used and most of the tube oozed past the piston and around the spring
