  • Summary: Bostitch pinned it, and I can't see where.
  • Comment: This is a great pin nailer with an almost invisible hole. Be sure to hold the nailer straight, and consider the direction of the grain, so that the pins will not blow out the side of the project, Other than that(my fault), it is excellent.

  • Summary: This time it's perfect!
  • Comment: If you're like me, most of the power tools you buy have some little flaw or quirk that disappoints you. You end up making your own modifications to the tool or leaving it on the shelf. Well not this time! This thing works as advertised and exceeded my expectations (a rare accomplishment for a tool manufacturer).

    I just finished a huge oak cabinet project that employs beaded face frames. I made all the beads by hand and pinned them with this tool. Every set was perfect, not 1 jam and the holes became invisible after the second coat of poly. I highly recommend this tool.

    By the way, I read all the negative reviews on this tool and concluded that those guys were using a pinner in applications that called for a brad or finish nailer or were simply misusing the tool. Don't believe all that noise. The trick to getting perfect results is using the right air pressure (I use 85 lbs) and resting the tool on the surface rather than pressing down when firing. When used properly and for its designated purpose, delicate trim work, this tool is perfect.

  • Summary: Works Great
  • Comment: This is a fine nailer that is easy to operate and makes nailing a pleasure. Well, almost a pleasure. The tool comes in a handy storage case. Enclosed with the nailer is the user manual, a packet of nails and a small jar of lubricant. The price is right and so is the tool.

  • Summary: Solid Performer
  • Comment: I've owned this pin nailer for about 5 years & found it to be a very good value for the money. It's performed almost flawlessly & has held up well. There have been no repairs required, even though it's been used in a commercial setting & not always treated kindly.

    The tool is slightly larger than other guns that shoot pins in the 1 1/4" range, but is not unwieldy. The dual trigger safety takes a little getting used to initially, but becomes second nature once you've used it a bit. I've found the power adjustment lever to be unnecessary & always leave it set to the maximum position.

    If I could improve one thing on the tool, I'd make it oil-less like the other finish guns in the Bostitch lineup. Other than that, I feel it's one of the top 23g tools in this price range.
