Call me a conspiracy theorist if ya want to. But I'm suspectin' that the junk Chinese grease guns that are going around have been designed by Dr. Fu Manchu his damn self to destroy American industrial machinery.
It'd be just like him to come up with something like that.
An unwary American pumps the hell out of his grease gun and thinks that everything is good to go.
Two days later his combine takes a schitt.
Come to think of it,..I bet wabigoon has been using a Chinese grease gun on that combine universal joint that took a dump here while back.
He thought he was on top of his game,....ready to cash in and eat Thanksgiving turkey,...then his corn picker took a dump.
Go to an impliment dealer or parts store in farm country ..they make some really nice lock on ends the just plain work...even my Milwaukee and Alimite electric guns the ends are kinda crap...they get replaced on mine..

That's a good idea. There's some big implement dealers around here.
I bet they use Lincoln grease guns. I should have asked them.
An older cousin of my friend in high school operated a D9 Cat in Vietnam and was issued an M3A1. Got his one and only kill with it during an ambush on a road when a VC ran around the truck he was taking cover behind and he "greased" him....
Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery. Hit the target, all else is twaddle!

Uncle used a Thompson to good effect in Europe, '44-'45, he seemed to think highly of it. Can't recall him mentioning the M3.
Gone 20 years, I do miss him.

Like most people, I've had reason to use a grease gun for various things over the years. I had no need for one for many years but now I do. I've bought two so far and both of them are junk. I never had problems with grease guns in the past. But these today stick on the zirc fitting and you have to pry them off.
Loosen the tip. You can adjust them so they aren't too tight or too lose on a zerk.
