I've never owned one, but I am sure getting the "wants". So I've started
reading the reviews and learning about the brands. It seems that misfiring

especially heavy day in-day out type making a living with one of these
devices, I'd appreciate hearing about it.

I have the PC that shoots up to 2". Never had a misfire with it. I'm a
contractor so my use is heavy at times. I really like the way it feels
in my hand, just very comfortable. Someone mentioned that it needs to be
oiled, yeah, like a drop of oil, and that isn't going to effect
anything. Some worry about the 2" nails being too weak, and I did wonder
about it too, but that has not been my experience in use. It's
advertised as shooting from 3/4" thru 2" but it will also shoot the 5/8"
brads.

Would I buy it again? In a heartbeat.

Scott
