Newborn Brothers 250 1/10-Gallon Super Smooth Rod Caulk Gun Reviews:
I hadn't bought a caulk gun in about 30 years, and didn't realize there as anything new in caulk gun technology, but this beats the heck out of my old cheap gun. Like it says, it'll cut off the tip of the caulk tube, and there's a long pin to pierce the seal. This means you won't find yourself on the top of a 24-foot ladder realizing you forgot to bring a long nail or utility knife with you.
The handle is easy to squeeze, and won't wear out your hand quickly. The caulk stops flowing when you stop squeezing. You can also rotate the barrel (and thus the tube of caulk), which is handy if you like to cut the spout at an angle.
It's all very solid metal, so it's not likely to be damaged if you step on it or drop it from the roof. Even if you only use a caulk gun a couple times a year, I think this is worth the additional money, because it's much more pleasant to use than a $3 standard gun.

Reviews:
I use a caulking gun almost everyday and have owned several over the years. This caulking gun pushes the caulk out of the tube with very little effort. It is very well constructed--precise construction, tight tolerances. Their is no slop in the push rod which slides smother than any other that I have ever seen or used. The caulk gun is worth the extra money. I would recommend this over any others.
Wondered if this caulking gun could be that much better than the cheap versions I've owned previously- without a doubt, it is. Solid construction, and control is precise. Have a lot of painting to do and this will make the job much easier.

Dripless Inc. ETS2000 Ergo Composite Caulk Gun Reviews :
I've never caulked before, so I don't know how this compares to other caulk guns, but this one was easy to use, light weight, and has very little drip. It does make you want to search your house for more caulking that needs to be done. It's almost too bad that the work is done so easy and so quick. If this gun costs more, especially including shipping, I'm sure it's worth it.

This caulk gun is primarily made of plastic but it is heavy duty and well made. I have no concern about it breaking. The dripless feature works very well, but I have had some minor dripping (nothing like a regular caulking gun, however). It's best to pull the plunger back a little if you're setting the gun down.

Reviews :
 had to write a review on this gun because it turns out to be the best caulk gun I have ever used. If you think all caulk guns are the same you are right. Most of them are crap. Except for this one, and maybe one other one that is imported from England and is very hard to find.

I've gone through dozens of caulk guns, with each one being less than satifactory and then breaking. They just don't do what they are supposed to do and they don't hold up to the abuse of every day use. Metal guns get bent, plastic ones crack, plunger mechanisms and triggers are poorly made etc.

For years I have wondered why nobody makes a decent caulk gun, it is such a simple device how can manufactures keep getting it wrong?

Well, they got it right on this gun. It must be in the spring mechanism because this baby is smooth. The trigger pulls easily even with heavy Butyl caulks, and it really does not drip. It guns very evenly and there is no problem laying a nice even bead without the globs you get from pulling the trigger again. It's made of a tough molded plastic and super light weight. So far been extremely durable too, I've dropped it off ladders several times and it still works fine. Loading and unloading a tube is a no fuss operation, which is one of my biggest peeves with other guns. There is no spring release button, you just pull back on the plunger to remove the tube.

If you have ever used a caulk gun and found the dripping after you squeeze the trigger and apply the caulk, messy. Stress no more. This gun is drip-free. I highly recommend it. You will waste less caulk.

Loving this silicone gun. Makes the average user look professional with its precision control and drip free system. Great value, why is this product not in Australia?

Reviews :

I decided to purchase a premium caulking gun after throwing away several cheap ones made with cheap materials. I love this gun. I recently used it to apply roofing and flashing sealant, pretty tough stuff to move around. The gun performed great. I got a great bead that looks professional, and it never dripped!
