What happens here

The presenter discusses two main drawbacks of the older Graco Contractor spray gun. Firstly, the packings (sealing components) are easy to replace but costly, making repacking almost as expensive as buying a new gun. Secondly, the trigger pull is quite stiff, which can lead to tendinitis in the user's fingers over time, an issue the presenter has personally experienced after many years of use.

Goal: Identify key disadvantages of the older Graco Contractor spray gun

the one of the drawbacks to the gun is the packings in this gun they're easy to repack but the cost of the packings make the gun almost not worth repacking most people just i never throw away the guns i'll keep them for parts and stuff but i got a whole bunch of them um because they just don't repack them but i've never broken one of these guns ever before because they're just indestructible i'm going to talk about the trigger on this gun now this is probably one of the things that trigger pull is a pretty stiff trigger pull on this gun but you do get used to the trigger pull you know over time i've been spraying with one of these guns for you know probably 18 years and i did get some tendinitis in my fingers from uh the trigger pull on it i think that's one of the improvements in some of the new guns out
