Why did I wait so long to buy a pin nailer. The dual triggers,(safety + fire) is kind of funky but with time I'm sure I will get used to. This tool is very handy. I chose PC because of their reputation, Price, the top vent, narrow tip. It had no problem sinking 1 1/2" pins into oak, just below the surface. I'm liking it so far.
It works fine. However, the tip mars wood pretty bad. I had no jambs or any other problems. I like the compact size body and a little weight to it. You need to be cafreful when you use it on rather soft wood. Grex comes with no mar tips, why PC can not.
I don't know how I got along without the neailer in the past. I have used it to secure the corners on several trophies that I had glued together. The trophies were made of ash, and the nailer had no trouble in securing the corners. The only thing I could complain about, I wish the nailer accomodated a pin nail 1 1/4 or 1 1/2 inch in length.
Porter-Cable PIN100 1/2-Inch to 1-Inch 23-Gauge Pin NailerI got this pin nailer because my wood working mentor had one. I use it to pin joints together while the glue dries. It saves a lot of time and I don't need as many clamps to do the job. If you read the instructions that come with the nailer you shouldn't have problems with it.
I read a lot of reviews for several different pin nailers. I have nothing negative to say about this gun. Works beautifully every time. Considering it is three times "Less expensive", you can't go wrong.
