Zebra MC3400 / MC3450
Warehouse stocktaking · racking · high scan volume
This is the shape most people picture when they think of a warehouse scanner: a pistol grip, a trigger under the index finger, and a numeric keypad under the thumb. The design has survived decades because it is the right answer for the job.
A gun grip lets the operator scan without raising the whole device to eye level, and the keypad means a quantity is typed by feel — with gloves on, without looking away from the shelf.
How it counts.
This is the device Stocktakes Online was built and proven on. Every design decision in the app assumes this hardware: the scan fields auto-focus and submit on the scanner's trailing Enter, quantities are typed on the keypad, and nothing needs a second hand.
It is also the device Scan/Increment was written for. On a rail of identical stock, each pull of the trigger counts one, with no quantity step at all — and the running total for that part in that bin sits on screen as you work.

Is this the right one for your site?
Tell us the aisle widths, whether it is a freezer, how far the operator walks and how many hours a shift. We would rather send a device that fits than the most expensive one in the range.
