I do love this tool, but with some reservations! The 1/10th gun worked great for me, except for the higher cost of "tubes" VS the 30 ounce "tubes". The 1/10th gun is lighter to use, thus less tiring. You do take more time changing "spent" tubes, with the 1/10th gun. The 30 ounce gun had problems with the large "o-ringe" seal that kept twisting in, and loosing air pressure, cuasing construction delays, having to fix the ring, that I got so tired of fixing, that I just stopped using the 30 ounce gun. This was a shame since I paid for both, and now use the 1/10th gun, due to the above problem. The 30 ounce tubes are also cheaper, down the road. I also noted the pressure clamp on the air hose to come loose, and need clamping. I recommend the manufacturer look at the above complaint, on the clamp and 30 ounce tool. The 1/10th gun works great, and sure beats hand caulking.

I have this product and it is extremely overpriced
and poorly designed. Using the gun with the small
cartridge is OK with no problem but trying to use the
gun for the large cartridges is almost impossible!
In order to use a large cartridge you have to put the
cartridge in a tube and connect the tube to the gun.
This is done by compressing a hard rubber "O" ring and
here is the problem. Using all my strength I cannot
exert enough pressure to compress this "O" ring and assemble
the gun. Perhaps this is just the fault of the cartridge
but this should not happen. You cannot have a caulking gun
that will work only on certain cartridges.
It is better to have two guns (one for small cartridges
and another for the large catridges). For the price of this
gun you can purchase two guns. You just have to look around
spend some time. I returned this gun and now have two seperate
caulking guns that work great (and have money let over)!

I started using this gun this weekend gluing subflooring down to floor joists on a log home I'm building. I'll admit I was worried after reading some reviews, but it performed remarkably well. I bought it for the log installation, because I'm 62 years old and wasn't looking forward to hand-pumping a bead on each of 33 rows of logs. I was using 30 ounce tubes, and all I had to do different was to add the second supplied rubber gasket to the one already in the gun. I'm happy!

I am one of those people who are just plain bad at caulking, put on about half a tube, and then smear the excess on my pants leg. This product allows me to draw a perfect bead, thin or wide depending on who hard you squeeze the trigger. It's heavyer with the larger tubes but it works great for putting down construction adhesive to lay subflooring. If you have a compressor on the job you need this gun.

This caulking gun is great. I put 50 + tubes of liquid nail through it and it made my project so much easier. Besides, you can tell your friends you have a caulkmaster and that is just too funny. Great product.

We use these at work to seal panels to airplanes. If you just squeeze and hold the trigger down you will make an awful mess. Pump the trigger a little at a time and this thing will sing (seal) for you. We use sealant 10 times more messy than rtv (caulk). so messes are ugly. If people hate this gun then they don't know how to use it properly.

We were chinking our cabin and my wife wanted to help, but she couldn't squeeze the regular 29 oz. caulk gun without killing her hand. This allowed her to do a lot more chinking. It is a little hard to control the flow of it, but for her it was a hand saver.

I love this gun but it you don't have the strength to lock in place it's no good. My husband has to do it every time I'm ready to use it.

Caulk Master PG151 Product does not meet explantations. I can get 2/3 to 3/4 of the product through the gun. After that air come blowing out with the caulk. I was not able to find a phone # to get tecnical help support. I even searched on the web. I am using the caulking gun but when the caulk starts blowing air I have to put the caulk into a manual gun to get the rest out. Not what I though the product would do. I am dissapointed.

This is a great tool. Way better than hand pumping. Only one thing. While using the large tubes I had to first put the tube in the manual gun and get that first part of the tube unstuck and switch over to the Caulk Master. When I tried to use the Caulk Master for that first "unsticking of the tube" it would flip the plunger in the tube on it's side. Kinda messy then. It comes with two gaskets (different thicknesses). You will need them for the large & small tubes.
