Graco Contractor and Contractor PC Review: Is it Worth your Money?

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

While acknowledging that he likes the lighter trigger pull of both the Titan RX Pro and the Graco Contractor PC (though finding the PC's a bit too soft), the presenter ultimately expresses a strong preference for the older Graco Contractor gun. His reasoning is based on the superior durability and all-metal construction of the older model, which he views as more reliable and less prone to failure on the job site due to robust parts.

Goal: Compare trigger pulls and state a preference based on durability

going to last all right so there you have it i've gone over some of the things and uh talking a little bit about the gun is this a gun i you know on the shelf i got to say this is probably the nicest looking gun on the shelf and it is very attractive it's gonna you're gonna wanna buy it when you see it i been you know 54 years old spraying over 22 000 hours you know with a gun in my hand my trig my fingers i've got tendinitis in it i do really like uh the trigger pull on the rx pro gun i like the trigger pull on this i do think it's a little bit too soft but i i like it better than the trigger pull on this the trigger the pull distance on this is a little bit farther than the pull distance on this but this one is a little bit stiffer some of the plastic components on this i'm just not a fan of the plastic components i'm not a fan of the moving parts that can clog and get clogged with paint i don't i keep my tools very clean but your employees typically are not going to be cleaning these guns and on a regular basis and that these components are going to get more difficult to change and i know that because i've talked to some of the service repair people servicing these guns here that they're not greco dealers or just service repair guys in the valley um the the repacking kit i like that the repacking kit is a lot less i absolutely love how fast it is to replace but i think that's going to be an issue i'm not a fan of this whole trigger mechanism i would rather just have a two finger trigger mechanism that is extremely durable this is a moving part right here that has a lot of tension behind it and that's going to be a weak spot that's going to break if i had my choice of two guns you know
