I agree, the stock gun is bulky and hard to get in tight places.
I took a different approach -
I just made the tip a bunch longer. Simple!

I found a copper tip that was about 5" long at a welding shop - they had it on their parts shelf without a number - who knows what it was for. I had to thread the end so it'd screw in like the original one.
Then I used a hunk of copper tubing around it as a shield.
So far it's been able to reach in the tight places I've needed it to.

And I put the "cold switch" on it - it's a bulky box in the line, but I like it. If they put it in the gun that would be slick.
