Lol when I repair guns they usually fail again fast. I use Eds method. :). We do have some $80 guns that we replace springs in sometimes.

Also we use the mosimatic swivels where the hose connects like many people. But we also like the 3/8 mosimatic swivel that go where the lance meets the gun. This allows you to turn the lance easily to change your spray fan direction. Very handy for decks, concrete and truck rims.

I also buy a new trigger,..actually always have a new one on hand. I prefer the ST-2000,..they are cheap and tough and fit my hand nice. Yea, repairing them never seemed to be worth it. I also have the mosmatic swivels at the inlet of the trigger,.less fatiguing and also better for the hose. Don't even bother with the cheaper swivels, they are very stiff compared to the mosmatic.

Swivel at the gun is not a bad idea. Aren't they like $60 or something?

Usually around $40-$45,..depending where you get them. I can get mine local for $43,...Bob sells them for around the same price I think.
