What kind of solder is included with the gun? Probably a multi-purpose, I'm guessing. If so, whats the difference between the solder included and el

60/40 resin core comes with it. This is for electrical soldering. Other options are silver solder and acid core solder. These are NOT for soldering wiring and electronic components.

Something like the Weller SP-175 or larger. It is an iron, not a gun, and this is the only type of soldering equipment designed for continuous use. Certainly not as convenient as a gun but it is good for a 24/7 duty cycle. The only other option I see if to have several of these plugged in and waiting to go and rotate them in and out.

Either way is good! In fact it may be better with a soldering iron since it's packaged in a smaller quantity as though intended for small jobs such as might be tackled with a soldering iron. Torches will work too though.

I'd say that a soldering gun is too heavy a soldering tool for that type of repair. I'd op-ed for either a good quality soldering station or a portable iron like the Iso-Tip. I used this one for small parts soldering as will as SMT. You can buy a verity of tips to suit your needs. Hopes this helps.

Not sure. They don't sell them on Amazon? Call the mfg. to be honest that gun broke rather quickly that it was never an issue.

The "stainless steel" in your gun is not pure stainless. It has magnetic material in it. Grab a magnet and check it.Bernie

I've had issue with it getting hot enough. I just got some other tips to try to see if they will work better. I know a soldering gun does get hotter.

I don't see anything written on the parts themselves. On the bottom page of the instructions It says Barska/La Verne, Ca 91750/USA/www.barska.com hope it helps. I put this on my Rem 870 I had to do a little customizing. I have 3 different lights and lasers for my 12ga its a lot of power every time you fire to keep these where they belong. But I do use them. Good luck

Hello, Thank you for your message. Sometimes the new irons are shipped directly from Quality Control, and a bit of solder remains on the tip after being tested. The units that we ship are brand new from the manufacturer. Please let me know if I can be of further assistance. Regards, Customer Service

Put the tip in like in the pictures, screw it down tight, plug it in, pull the trigger. Half way is full power, all the way is half power. This gun is for soldering large wires and connectors, not electronic circuit boards. This gun is for intermitant use. Like 10% or less on, 90% off. If you are doing stained glass, use a large soldering iron. Irons are meant to be on for long periods, guns will overheat and die. To learn to solder in general, search YouTube.

The kit does not come with solder. 60/40 is the best to use on a kit like that. Get it on line, Radio Shack does notstock it!

I had to solder them. I had to solder them. Just takes a minute if you have the gun and solder.

As far as I know it's just headless pins but not positive all I have ever used was headless pins. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. There are videos of reviews of this gun on youtube that may help you.

Mostly metal, only the grey parts are plastic. The tip is metal. Good gun for the money.

I would suggest when you knock the pin out of the rear sight check it good because i was told there are some that are solderes in. You still have to be careful once you knock out pin there is aheavy piece of spring steel underneath because nothing is made light on this rifleI would suggest that you use epoxy or liquid steel when you set it in then put the screws in it will loosen up on you after about 25 shots or so it is acheap set up and you get what you pay for.
