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


NO parts can be had for ANY HF guns period. Use it and throw it away.


That alone tells me to avoid buying HF power tools. Or for that matter,
avoid buying ANYTHING from HF. It's become apparent that there is at
least one person on this newsgroup who works for HF, and likes to
promote their junk. Just look for a recent thread about HF coupons.

I bought some of their crap, and was never satisfied with any of it.
That was years ago. I dont go to HF at all now. Most of the crap is now
buried in some landfill.
