Geiger counters - different models?

As title:

can you get different quality Geiger counters? Maybe some that measure more accurately than others. Or a more accurate GM tube? Or is it just of a universal accuracy?
Thanks

Also: how would you be able to calculate the uncertainty of a Geiger counter? I imagine that with the one I've been using, it could be pretty significant, around 20-30% or even more

Why do you need a geiger counter?

I don't need one, already used it for it's purpose

I was measuring emissions from a protactinium generator.
