spray gun

Im sure this has been covered before, but i have searched all over and havent found anything. Im working on an old truck, after i get it running well and everything is operational (at least a few months) i would like to repaint it. Ive read all about painting, but i can't find a good paint gun.

It seems like all i can find is a gun thats either $30 or $300. i dont want something really cheap thats going to do a crappy job, but i dont want to spend a lot either. Is there a gun that isnt too expencive that does a good job. Maybe around $100? I understand that primer, paint and clear all require different tips. is it possible to have one gun that has changable tips?

Im planning on doing the work myself and am going to put lots of time and effort into getting a good looking truck. it doesnt need to the an award winning paint job, but i want it to be something i can be proud of and have it look good.
