Got my new Craftsman ad rag and saw they have a pneumatic grease gun on sale for $25 but the reviews on the site don't make it sound too good. Anyone have a pneumatic grease gun that they are happy with and if so what brand and what is the price?

Dont bother with the Craftsman. I had one for 2-3 months it quit pumping, Got it replaced (figured it was bad as the reviews were good at the time)
The replacement lasted about as long as the original. I returned it.

This october I bought a Lincoln 1162 and so far it works very well, one of the other guys at work has had one for a while so thats why I got one.

It is pricy 70$ +/- but worth it.

I have one of these from CH. I got it for about $20 at Wal-Mart. It has worked great for me, and I use it regularly...

I have a Harbor Freight myself and it works perfectly. I think I paid $11.99 for it! Had many years so far...

I have had one from HF for many years and it has worked perfectly. I did take it apart and lubed the piston etc inside before I used it tho.

I usually disassemble all of my tools etc before I use them to check for assy errors and to make sure they are lubed properly. Of course a person has to know what to use to lube various parts and have those lubricants available. I sometimes also make improvements at the same time.

I did improve the HF grease gun by adding a rubber hose and a US made (Milton?) lube nozzle.
