What kind of guns do you use?

I was just wondering what type of guns do you use in the bays and why?
Which are best and what tip size do you use?
I use 3207 tips in the winter and 3206 tips during the rest of the seasons with Kleen-rite GUK600W guns.
 
I use the same wands, but 1506 tips. Our soil and weather require real impact and those nozzles deliver. Buy 3-4 tips and try different ones and see what you like best
 
For my Bay guns I use a Suttner 1500 gun, Kleen-rite SUT1500W with a 1505 nozzle, running at 1500 psi with Cat 310 pump. The 1505 nozzle gives the customer the impression that they are getting more pressure than they really are. I make my own wands.

The Sig's a little too heavy for my small frame. I prefer the Colt pocket 9. All stainless, semi auto. Last model made before they closed up shop. It's perfect when you have a CC permit.
 
I like the more comfortable grip of the Giant 21295A, but the Adams 5030W are a lot more durable and a little cheaper. I don't rebuild them since between the time it takes and the cost of a kit, there's too much invested in a beat-up looking gun.

I run 2506 v-spray tips with the bays at 1200 PSI. Plain galvanized wands with GinSan tip protectors and the lightweight plastic sheath from Kleen-Rite. Everything is very durable and I usually change it all out when it starts to look ragged.
