If that's the correct term, those guns you put tubes of bathroom sealant etc in.

I seem to wreck them all the time. I've been using one whilst I do some sealing on the van so I'm after recommendations for a decent one that will last a bit longer with my heavy handedness 😳

Thanks

Find one of the plastic trim suppliers (euro cell, national plastics, etc) and get one from there.
They'll do a cheap one or a one for about £8.
Power pro I think there called. A bit heavier than the cheap ones but are very good.

The guy who installed our windows recommended the Cox guns, as above. You can get them in Screwfix.

Cox powerflow here. Got fed up with a cheap no-name gun that flexed and didn't give consistent flow. The easiflow will do most sealants fine though.

If that's the correct term

"Skeleton gun" is what I've always known them as.

I've got one that looks very much like a copy of the Cox was not much over £5 from one of the bargain shops. Works well. The key features are a rotating joint between the barrel and the trigger and a trigger made from a casting rather than folded steel.

Looks to be a clone of the everbuild one I use at work. All the gun you should need.
