Old ones that have no names that I don't even know where I got them from are bullet proof.

The fancy 1 handed 1 that cost £30 is a pain, always pumps fresh air and end gets stuck making me take tantrums!

Hope that helps :)

Ps I hate grease!

My 360's tool bin housed a 3'' thick layer of grease from leaking grease guns. The only positive from this is that it hasn't rusted! Biggest downside was the tools all had a layer too so you were instantly covered even for the smallest job. I've binned that self emptying grease gun and have another, cartridge one, that seems to be a little cleaner.

The biggest problem I have found is the seals are not compatible with grease so don't fit well plus the tube is always under pressure and this results in constant slight leakage.

Riener system, no going back to messy style grease cartridges now

Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes Yes. The best grease gun I have used in 30 years of working in farming and forestry. Larger grease tubes, no mess, just screw it on and start pumping. Have even run over it and the only damage was the grease tube, Just put a new one on and away it went. Fantastic. Deere forestry had them on there stand at Elmia 2009 but dont know whether they carried on selling them but we get ours from Fuchs anyway.
