I woulda bought the Bostich, but my brother was buying, so.....did two
roofs with it and it lived. A bit fussy on nail coil quality to begin
with, jammed frequently , but once it was figured out that it wanted
nicely coiled nails it went away. PErhaps it was happenstance.

Didn't like the variance in depth, but I think that is operator related.

Length of nail adjustment is hokey

likes to be well oiled

Harbor Freight !!!!!!!
Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha hahahahahahahaha.....
They got another sucker !!!

Perhaps the joke is on you, my friend: I've gotten many good tools there
which were well worth what I paid for them, sometimes a couple of times
more.


So have I, but I've also gotten some duds. It does seem that some
like to look down their noses at HF though.


Those are the looser-contractors who are loosing business to DIY
homeowners that buy a cheap tool from HF, do a job, toss the HF tool,
and still come out saving $$$ over the price of some knuckle
dragging, unreliable, alcoholic, overpriced contractor that may or may
not show up for the job.

(BTW, there are many, many, many competent, reliable and reasonability
priced contractors out there. But it only take one of the losers to
drive a DIYer to the HF tools and a bunch of $$$ saved.)

Sure, a lot of the HF tools only last a job or two, but a one time HF
tool is better than a one-time looser-contractor.

Well said. But it's "loser."
