Acceptable! in cartridge guns

I don't know if I can love it but I don't hate it. It's worked for me every time I've used it, and it's done exactly what it's supposed to do every time. He didn't try to readjust and hold things like bananas, or risk doing weirder things like peeling cucumbers.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • No power

Made for weak hands

This does not improve the grip of the sealant. This only allows for a weak grip and no longer puts pressure on the sealant tube, making the bead come out incredibly slowly. It has a clutch or something - complete junk, don't buy it! It was worth the money because it came with 2 seal caps that work very well and a seal manifold that works well.

Pros
  • Durable finish
Cons
  • Interval

Well worth it, especially for beginners/do-it-yourselfers

Only used once but works great so far. Here's how it went with a small smoothing tool and a couple of exposed sealant caps (the caps are inside the smoothing tool). So far the only issue is that one of these caps was already completely cracked and broken when I started using it so I'm glad it comes with 2. This pistol fits in a 10 ounce tube.

Pros
  • Cartridge gun
Cons
  • Nothing

Worked about 8 times. Now there will be no pre-coining.

I was very happy with it when it worked. The brake prevents excess sealant from escaping. This is a great feature. The attached rod to open the old desiccant cartridge and 2 caps were neat items. But he just stopped moving the piston to force out the sealant. I couldn't figure out why and tried a different cartridge but to no avail. If I knew how to contact the company I would leave 1 review instead. If Newborn contacts me and replaces me, I will change the rating. I think it's just a bug…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Concise instructions

Buy, buy, buy - stop spending and waste money

Over the years I've had cheap and expensive shotguns. I recently lent my expensive pistol to my father. He lives far away and I needed a gun so I turned to Revain for something cheaper to get by. To be honest I was surprised by the quality for $6. My $25 shotgun has a more comfortable grip, but who cares? When that's not what you do for a living, this shotgun is perfect for the do-it-yourself home. Don't spend extra money. This thing is solid, has all the features you would expect from an…

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Long delivery time

No instructions

This is a robust caulking gun with a number of handy built-in features. Too bad they don't include instructions on how we can do this. There is no release button (it is not needed), there is a hole in the handle that says "tip cutter” and there is also a tool for piercing the seal. It took me a few minutes to realize that the push rod could be retracted when the trigger was released. If the trigger is released while lime is being applied, the plunger rod will automatically retract slightly to…

Pros
  • Decent performance
Cons
