I realize that this may be going up a different tree than OP has in mind, but I have been using an expensive pen/gun simply to shoot standard syringes. This is all about doing the injection without hesitation, not about transportation or handling, for which my gun is no good, contrary to OPs needs. For anyone interested in such, the product I have used and can endorse is the Owen Mumford Autoject 2 (AJ1300/AJ1310), available on Amazon for the princely sum of $45, $33 elsewhere.
This not cheap and may be the most expensive device in category, for all I know, but I can say it handles the injection process nicely, regardless of syringe details and does not care about how full a syringe is. It is quirky the first time, but the operation really is simple and satisfactory.

Lol what the heck, nobody actually talks like that about a product they bought
Well, nobody from Canada actually talks like that about a person they don't know. This thread is brimming with intrigue!

Looks like I do! Nothing against you, it's just the way you wrote it it sounds fake. If it's a real review, my apologies then
Nothing against you, it's just that no one from Canada is that rude. If you're really from Canada, my apologies then
I know. My Oz pen drives me crazy.
Can’t understand this is not yet done … even if it has to be rechargeable or some.. lol
Hopefully someone know something

This pen allows you to insert a syringe with your med and it uses a spring to gently inject. My wife has MS and was on copaxone and the older model was provided with her meds. It works great and will last for years. The only thing you need to buy is the syringes and alcohol wipes.

I too found this gismo helpful. It's not as compact as some of these other schemes but just being able to use a standard syringe will be a blessing for some people. It certainly makes sense for people still getting compounded in syringes.

In general, do most pens take more force to plunge? I was previously using syringes provided by SlimDownRX (unsure of the brand) and never really had issues plunging them. Moved to a ErgoPen and it takes significant force to plunge. At least in comparison.

Owen Mumford pen is spring loaded and takes regular 3ml cartridges. You dial in the number of units compressing the spring, then press release button, which activates the spring loaded plunger. They also include levers to help with both the spring and release button.
It does look cheaper than other pens, and the dial is not as good as even Chinese pens, but I really like not having to push the plunger.

This could be the pen, or the cartridge. Give the pen a try with no cartridge installed and see how much resistance there is. If it seems ok, you may need to try a different cart vendor or maybe you just got a cart that internal plunger isn't installed correctly.
