Well I am open to learning. What kind of pressures were achieved with this massive device, bearing in mind a regular grease gun can put out 3000 psi, and Llincoln makes guns that go to 7000 psi?

As to hauling around that or extra cartridges, I think I'll stick with the cartridges. Then again, many, many times in the military you were refilling from a 5 gallon pail of grease, and that could be a messy task if you didn't know what you were doing.

What was the capacity of the oddy that justified it's weight and complexity? Have you used them much Richard?

I must admit is certainly looks rugged enough.
