Silligun vs old school

What happens here

The presenter demonstrates puncturing the inner seal of the caulk tube. A standard caulk gun typically has a long metal rod that swings out from its frame for this purpose. The "Silly Gun" also has a puncturing tool, which is shown to be a small metal pick located within its handle, though the presenter notes it is less accessible and harder to extract for use.

Goal: Break the internal seal of the caulk tube to allow caulk to flow.

Does the silly gun replace a normal caulk gun? Let's get after it. First things first, tube cutter. Silly gun does not. Next, puncture the hole in the top of the tube. Normal caulk guns, it either swings out from the side, the back, the underneath. Silly gun has one as well and it's located right here in the handle. If you can get it out. The one thing that I like about the caulk gun is I can rotate my tube to get a different angle.
