Looking for a glue-gun for some projects, I know there are a few pyro-sites that sell them. Anyone have one that they like? Looking for something -25$. Thanks.

Ryobi makes a nice battery powered one, but is way more than $25... I have a few multi temp ones from craft stores, they work but not super great heat control.

If you can find a peddle control switch, it makes it easier... That way you don't have to keep unplugging it every so often. Check in the fabric section at a craft store, for the pedal switch.

Problem I always have with glue guns is they fatigue when you try to do multiple applications. It's like you need to stop and let it heat back up.

I picked one up at HF It's the smaller one and uses the smaller sticks. IIRC it was about $10 for gun and sticks. It doesn't get as hot as my big one which I like for using around BP. No problems so far.

I bought one years ago at Hobby Lobby and it works great. I had a smaller one and went to the larger one and it was perfect. I used to make M-80?s and 1/4 sticks and used it for all sorts of firework stuff. Never had a problem what so ever

some glue won't hold in cold conditions .

I’ve been making these for years. The old M-80’s recipe, just amped up in size. Like a ground bomb.
