I've never owned or used a caulk gun before, so it took me a minute to figure out how it's supposed to load. I felt a little silly, but was grateful they had instructions included. It looks and feels nice. Drip proof might be a bit of an exaggeration, but I also ended up with a very large hole in the top of my caulk tube (again, first time), so that might be partially on me. My only wish would be if it were small hand friendly, but I haven't found one that is, so that's not on this product specifically.
