Does this gun work with bulk grease without using the 3oz tube?

No, bigger tubes won't fit. However, the small ones are easy to find. I bought a 3 pack from Amazon.

Yes it does and you can also fill it via a zerk fitting with bulk grease. It functions either way and does it flawlessly, you won't be disappointed.

At times a little but my answer is no, mine is also very well broke in, 60 tubes of grease, i did not have a problem before either

Thou shall oil thine air inlet daily with Air Tool Oil and Grease but once a month... Grease? Yes. The tiny ball bearing at the front of the gun, just beneath the anvil (where the 1/2" socket articulates to the tool) is a grease port that fits a "Mini" or "Needle" air tool grease gun. Just a dab will do before it back flows out of the port. Remember, you're greasing an air tool, not the ball joint of a semi truck. [The AIRCAT tools require the minimum standards below to keep your tool in good working condition. Grease/ Oil AIRCAT and NITROCAT Twin Hammer: Use Lithium or bearing grease. One pump every few weeks is all you need.} (quote from the Air Cat site). I hope you guys found this info helpful and remember, We Screw, We Nut, and We Bolt! :)

Dear Mr. AssCork,Just to be sure, I took the S&W; Model 10 out of the bottom drawer to check it. It's been there for nearly a year. The grease is still viscous and the action of the pistol action is still smooth.

Yes, I grease both my Ingersoll and my Nitrocat impact guns with one of these. My impacts are both composite. It sure beats taking the hammer case apart to grease the guns!

Most probably come with grease but I always pump grease in just to be sure. With most things that have grease fittings, you can't get too much grease. The excess comes out the seal. That's the way you know when it's fully greased.

you can put a grease fitting right on top, and fill it manually if you like or,with cartridges. I fill it manually with a big air grease system at the shop

The barrel nut doesn't come with grease. It comes in a small Ziploc-type bag pre-oiled but not greased. I applied never-cease on the threads in case I ever need to remove the nut. Hope this helps.

I haven't and the bottle says "Keep away from heat and flame. If contact with skin, wash thoroughly with soap and water". So I wouldn't suggest using it on a gun. I was told a LONG time ago that gun oil is to be used on guns. I do use a dab of gun grease on the slide runners only. I generally use dri-slide on my Dillon RL550B reloading press, on the slide for loading the primers. That action tends to get a little gummed up with the powder dust that comes out when the old primer is pushed out. If I keep that lubed with dri-slide, it doesn't attract the dust like oil would.

Jack, This Lumax unit requires NO external power. The hose connection can be adjusted to stay on the grease fitting as long as you don't pull to hard on it. You squeese the red handle to dispense the grease. The grease comes in a tube so you don't get dirty. The grease canister has a pull tab to open, drop the grease tube in the canister, you put the top back on the grease gun, attach the hose & fitting on the zirk you want to lubricate and squeese the handle to dispence the lubricant. You can purchase air powered grease guns, their very expensive and unless you've got dozens of fittings why spend that money. The Lumax unit comes with detailed instructions.

Yes. The hopper gun will handle about any fluid you put into it. I sprayed orange peel and knockdown and it worked great and cleanup was very easy. Good as any gun I have rented.

Not at all. This is just oil based dissolvant that cleans grease off surface.

You can fill the gun with a bulk fitting, but over very little time this makes a undesireable mess coming out the back end. Use regular refill cartridges and you will not be disappointed with this gun.

Yes. We tried it, and the grease was in the little tray, in the bottom middle.

Using the Fluid Film gun, just use it as it comes from the can. I haven't tried a regular gun. Probably too thick

Been using this along with equivalent lubes on my HK compacts and Glock family of guns. I do not overlube though and had experienced no problems.
