 I have a Lincoln pneumatic grease gun.
It comes with a long flexible hose to the nozzle, like the one in your link, 
but longer.
I don't have issues with it leaking.
I got it because I have a farm with several tractors and do a LOT of greasing, 
like every weekend. The hand lever guns were killing me!

The great thing about this Lincoln is the trigger is easy to pull and leaves 
your other hand free to lock (and sometimes hold) the nozzle down on the zerk 
fitting.
The hose is flexible enough to get into tight places and stiff enough to shove 
on to recessed fittings (man I hate those).

The other great thing is that it has the power to blow through most stuck 
fittings.

the quality is outstanding. I have had no issues and have dropped it a couple 
of times with not even a scratch.
The pull back latch is easy to engage and very positive.

You will fall in love with it and wonder why it took you so long to get it. 
Kind of like your first air ratchet.
You will also end up greasing things more often, just to use it. That's a good 
thing.

They make a battery powered one, if you don't have a compressor. But hey, if 
you don't have a compressor then shame on you! Buy one just so you can use the 
grease gun.
