Default Grease gun advice needed

I'm tired of not being able to force grease into chassis fittings with my
existing grease guns. Mostly working on my '48 & '52 Pontiacs and my
children's newer cars.
Yes, I've never paid more than $ 24 bucks for a grease gun. Have two
manual guns and one air powered. All the guns prefer to dispense the
grease alongside the zerk fitting rather than into the fitting.

I'm willing to pay a good price and throw all my cheap guns away. Any
recommendations???

Thanks,
Ivan Vegvary


My grease gun nozzels/sockets.. are adjustable like a chuck. Loosen it up
to a good slipp fit for most zerks and tighten it down wile on the zerk for
the tough ones. I don't like the idea of blowing the nasty hard gunk into
the bearings so I usually remove, clean or replaece and reinstall the zerks
that won't take grease.
