    I ordered one from Amazon ($29.90) and it got here today. After using it for a while I'll report that yep, it works quite well. For typical around the house jobs this is my new go-to caulk gun. That said, it wouldn't be the best choice for larger jobs because it seems to take a bit more pressure to squeeze the trigger than a standard gun and you get a bit less caulk per squeeze. This can be seen as a feature and not a bug. When you squeeze the trigger the plunger moves forward dispensing caulk. When you release the trigger, the plunger moves back to its starting point causing the caulk flow to stop immediately. (The caulk tube also moves back.) This is what gives the 'dripless' feature, there is no after-squeeze ooze. None. I've got a good number of small caulking jobs coming up and I'll update this if I have any troubles.
