On the back of the gun (where the grip safety would be on a colt 45) there
is a release, you push forward wtih one thumb. While pulling back the slide
with the other hand.

Point the caulking gun in a safe direction, make sure the safety is on, and
always treat it like it's loaded. Remember the NCA (National Caulkingun
Association) safety rules.

Due to following a few simple rules, the rates of accidental caulking have
declined every year. But drive by caulking continues to be a problem. So,
take your kids to an approved safety range, where they can learn the rules.

Remember, caulk doesn't seal windows, people seal windows. Support the right
to keep and bear caulk.

There's a release on the plunger somewhere....press it, pull the plunger
back.

I also have a dripless from HD. The release is a real bear; you have force
it. Maybe that is why it is dripless. Actually it does drip much less than
my old one.
