Do metric grease gun fittings exist?

I have a set of Teraflex greasable shackles on the rear and I've been trying to grease them for some time. The problem is that the grease gun fittings I have don't fit and slip right off. The fittings work just fine for every other point on the rig, except for the shackles.

I found out that the zircs on the shackles are actually metric (6mm thread?) Do I need to get a metric fitting for the gun and if so, where do I find one? I've searched quite a bit (both online and in stores) and haven't found anything that claims to be metric or will fit the zircs.

Thanks for the help
 
I would call Tera Flex and find that out. I had a pair of the shackles years ago and my reg gun fit them but they might have changed over at some point and time. Try napa for starters and it might help to bring the fitting in so they can see it. just and idea. Juice
 
NAPA does stock metric grease fittings.I bought some last fall for a project I was working on.They do cost quite a bit more than std. size grease fittings though.
