Default No one sells caulking guns

Most caulking guns sold in hardware stores and home centers are cheap

for quality, Cox is pretty well the Cadillac of caulking guns.


Well, that's what I need.

Just last week I was carrying my Home Depot caulking gun when I held
up a local Burger King. The cashier gave me trouble so I smacked
her wtith the tube, but then the manager came out and started to spurt
ketchup at me. I took a position of defense, but my gun misfired and
no bullets came out. I was lucky to get away.

'Products |*COX North America, Inc.'
(http://www.cox-applicators.com/our-products/)

Cox has it's headquarters in England and specializes in caulking guns.
They make manual guns (which is what I have) as well as both pneumatic
and cordless electric caulking guns.

You can buy individual replacement parts for Cox caulking guns, and I
guess that's part of the reason they're more expensive. It costs the
company money to keep an inventory of spare parts for every product they
make.
