I got mine while still in high school, that was a long time ago...go to the farm supply store and buy one, no need to spend 80million bucks, $10-15 will do it, also buy the flexible hose to go with it and replace the ridged part that normally comes on the gun, it makes it easier to grease u-joints that are not facing in the correct direction when greasing.
Just make sure it is the standard cartridge sized one so you can buy grease anywhere.
While you are there look for Green Grease, it is a farm implement grease, full synthetic, thats what I use, its about $8 a tube and for a normal person it should last at least a year.
You do not have to use it, but it is a good grease and I like it.
Buy whatever you want, thats what I recommend.

I bought a grease gun at Autozone in Ogden, UT when I was on a trip with the Rover.
It had a stiff delivery nozzle.
Seems to fit the nipples on the drive shafts just fine.
You need to goose around forward and backward to get the nipple at the right angle but the gun works fine for $13 or so.
When I was done with it, I put the gun back in the box and stored it in the back of the Rover.
Looks like some grease has leaked out of the gun as it is showing thru the box now.
