Heads up

Purchased today in Wiko (Ex Wilkinson) a heavy duty sealant gun for £6

http://www.wilko.com/fillers+sealant...n/invt/0427805

Its appears to be good quality
It takes the short and long tubes of "stick like ****" etc.
There is a blade in-build to the handle to cut the plastic nozzels
On the side there is a pull around spike to pierce the tubes that have
fixed nozzles.
There is a soft grip on the handle

Much lighter built than Cox guns.

The handle/trigger mechanism on the Wilko gun is cast rather than
pressed sheet. The plunger release mechanism has a latching function to
immediately release the pressure on the canister. Just momentary press
the plunger release (without pulling back the plunger) and the plunger
is completely free until put under pressure again with the trigger.

It is made in China.

Having just done a Google search on Cox guns their comparable gun
(subjectively viewing pictures and the description on the Cox site) is
x3 the price.

I much prefer a skeleton design, just look stronger with less weight and
bulk, and I have seen a cheap one of the open design bend like a banana.
