You get what you pay for in paint equipment. I recommend Devilbis guns as that is what I learned on. Some Craftsman guns are made by Devilbis and perform about the same. Some folks like Sharpe brand and I am sure cost has a lot to do with it. Binks doesn't make any junk either. Binks #7 is the most copied siphon fed paint gun made. You really should count on buying 2 guns. A good one for the paint and top coats. A cheaper one for primer. Try to get gravity feed guns as these will allow you to use less air pressure and produce less over spray (wasted paint). They will allow you to get the very last drop of paint/primer through the gun. Siphone fed guns have trouble with this. There is always a small amount left at the bottom of the cup. There are some quality imports now and these deserve a look as well. ATP or ATI (?) makes what are supposed to be good guns, but I don't own any. Let us know what you decide. P.S. Don't forget that respirator, either.
