Hi.
You can get a decent gun at your local autobody store, I just picked up a cheap 
Astro Pneumatic at my local store for $75.00 to use for spraying polyester 
primers.
Sharpe makes a Finex that seems pretty popular these days, you can get them on 
ebay anywhere from 60-80 dollars. Sharpe also has a T1-cg compliant gun for 
around 200.00 that has gotten very good reviews. Devilbiss has the Finishline 
III for around 130-150 that is also popular. I've had Devilbiss OMX for seven 
years now, which is no longer produced, but still sprays nice.
Personally I would stay away from the cheap knockoffs for anything but primer, 
but you don't need to spend a fortune either. As with everything else these 
days there is way too much to choose from.
Hope this helps,
John
