In May 2014 the 1st superconducting photo injector (SRF gun) at HZDR was replaced by a new gun, featuring a new resonator and cryostat. The intention for this upgrade was to reach higher beam energy, higher bunch charge and lower emittance at the same time in order to serve user experiments at the superconducting CW accelerator ELBE. In this contribution we will report on the commissioning of the SRF gun by presenting detailed beam parameter measurements up to a bunch charge of 300 pC. Additionally, we will report the results of the first two user experiments (neutron and THz generation) that demonstrated the reliability of this gun concept.
