Comments about Grease Gun:
The guy at Westmarine recommended this. I was stuck in the parking lot for 1-1/2 hrs trying to get it off my wheel; ended up replacing the hub. Salesman couldn't get it off either. Not fun in 100 degree weather... While trying to travel home.

Comments about Grease Gun:
Same as dilettante review - I felt like a moron when I tried to use it the first time. No instructions and not too many parts - should be a simple zirc operation, right? NOPE. Grease was oozing out of the plunger end, and around the base of the nozzle. I was not even sure grease was coming out the correct end - !!! But maybe I am placing too much emphasis on the importance of proper lubrication, or too little on investing in the proper tools.
Comments about Grease Gun:
This didn't work out for me. When I first inspected it, I found large filings in the nozzle, I guess from when the threads were tapped. I was kind of surprised that it came with no instructions, although it was relatively easy to put together. Or maybe not...when I used it the first time, grease came out of many parts other than the nozzle. I also felt kind of like a sucker for reading "comes with cartridge" and "3oz" and assuming that it actually came with 3oz of grease. Unless there was something very wrong with mine, when I released the plunger, it went pretty much all the way in, implying that although the cartridge was of 3oz capacity, it only held a tiny amount of grease.
