IMHO order a Devilbiss Starting Line gun kit, they're relativity inexpensive and work quite well, should not run you more than $90 with a cleaning kit.
I have one and have used it only a few times... Honestly, I like my Husky piece of crap I got on clearance years back, I have made some modifications to it and I have become accustomed to it and have come out with some great results. The biggest thing is to clean it really really well right away.
I think I bought a box set of two guns and spent less than $40.
Sue me, I am a little redneck.

You do not need to spend $300 unless you are planning on a career change.
Just my random thoughts.
