  • Need recomendation on small jobs powder gun

    I need a small gun to shoot test panels only and maybe small jobs that require less than a pound. I am tired of cleaning my guns for these little jobs (Easy 1b and Optiflex).
    One option I have is a friend who is flying to China next month, he said he would be happy to bring one back.
    I am not set on anything except having it reliable. Thanks in advance.

    I am in the same boat as you,a lot of what I do is custom mix and clean up is a major pain.Considering buying a second king coat gun so I can use the cup on position 1.

      I don't know which hobby guns you guys have, but I have the Caswell 50kv, which is now the backup gun to my King. But I have made mods to it and also made it a, pot gun(?). I had some issues with it, so I went back to stock with the cup. But I'm not done yet. I still think it will work and be easier to clean. I just need to take some time and refine what I did in the past. If that interest you follow the link.

        I do not have any hobby guns, I have two box feed GEMA Easy 1B's and one box feed GEMA Optiflex.
        I am open to any type, however if there is a chineese one I would prefer that, because I will be able to get it at a huge discount from my friend going to China next month.
        (Google "The third Shift" "China" They make bootlegs of bootlegs at night in nearly every factory).

            Is it a Gema piece or made by another company? I will check the Gema website and call my rep on Monday.
            A small hopper fitting on my existing gun would be perfect.

                How "small" of a hopper are you looking for?

                  I looked at the GEMA website, and there it is... a small hopper that fits on my optiflex, right where the hose plugs in. It looks like it holds about 1/2 lb. I am going to go with that.

                  Thanks
