Finish Line. It's a good gun for under $150. Dual adjustors, and you can get parts locally.

My best bud bought a HVLP cheapo gun from Harbor Freight and it turned out to be good enough for total car paint jobs , not just the touch up work he'd originally planned for it .

I have a Devilbis (?) Finishline HVLP gravity feed and found it a joy to use. Utilizes disposable liners and can be had for under $170.00 in most cases...just my .02

Sharpe Platinum is the best all around gun, especially for the home hobbyest. It needs half as much CFM most other guns, it atomizes like crazy and it is a "slow" gun allowing the beginer to take his time and watch the paint go on.

I forgot to mention that the Platinum can be bought from Sharpe (at least the last time I looked) "factory rebuilt" for about $175.00. These guns sold for $450.00 new so it is a heck of a deal.
