whats the best trigger gun?

Sig Sauer P230 - feels like an extention of your hand. If your not careful you'll find yourself pulling it out to shake hands by accident. Unfortunately it's more than $50.00.

Just joking, that's a good question. We use adjustable volume/pressure wands for coils, but I'd like to know a good free flowing gun that is balanced and doesn't make you have to use forearm pressure to keep it straight.

 
I agree 100% with Chad on the gun. My hand used to get tired all the time from other guns until I switched to the 2305 EasyPull. I always carry a piece of velcro though and wrap the trigger wide open in case my hand does get tired.
 
I use nothing but suttner st-2000 - everything else feels flimsy.

I think the best trigger gun is the one your employee holds, but thats just me lol.

As far as the hand gun goes I have always been partial to the .50 caliber Desert Eagle Gold plated Tiger Stripe(just for looks on the stripe lol)

Only thing is no Micky mouse Hind Parts with the John Wayne walk are allowed...

Now if we are talking rifles then by all means...Winchester Model '76

The best combat rifle in my humble opinion is a AK-47 those things take a beating and keep on ...wait....thats the battery slogan...You get my point...
 
We use to use the suttner 2000 for years till we got hooked on these.

We use one like this but only the next heavier duty than this, I think it is a 5000psi.

We come to love them and can hardly go back to the 2000.
 
Jay what do you like about those guns that got you 'hooked'?
 
Chris,

Most trigger guns have rebuild kits for them. Bob has them for around $12 or $13 I believe and it only takes about 10 minutes to rebuild one.

The guns have at least 1 o-ring in them which could be the problem with yours leaking. I had a few that were leaking on me. I just took them apart, cleaned and lubed everything and they were fine for awhile.
 
I have been using this one for the last year and really like it (sold by Envirospec). I replaced the steel ball with the ceramic one and there has been no weeping for last 8 months:

We started using these about three years ago and they justseem to fit your hand good for one reason. But the best reason is that they seam to last a lot longer. Yes you can rebuild them.

We put a lotof hours on our guns and I have some that are almost 2 years old. The suttners we were only getting a few months out of them.

As far as heat I can not realy answer how good they hold up. We use heat some but not as much as some guys do.

They are a easy pull gun with some letoff when it is pulled but...One dowside to this gun is that the spring is weak and will break, which is very easy to change, but all you have to do is get a stronger spring and that pretty much fixes it.

If you D/S get a trigger gun with high gpm flow, otherwise your D/Ser will act up.

You must mean ds with chems when I ds for foam I find low flow to work better .
 
I like Giant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For reasons not to do with any of the above. The valve inside the gun is used on other things. We have actually order the guns when the valve was out of stick to repace elsewhere.

This valve doesnt go bad by wear, your guys will loose, run it over or destroy it some other way before they wear it out.
