Bostitch HP118K 23 Gauge Headless Pin Nailer Kit

[Mike Goetzke]

My Menard's just got these in stock. It's just under $100 with the current bag sale.

Does anyone have a review or used this pinner (is it worth $100)?


Thanks,

Mike

I've had the Bostich pinner for a while now. I haven't used it much. My neighboor used it a fair ammount to trim out his fireplace (small trim).
No problems at all with it.
I do keep forgetting it doesn't have to be held down to the work when you nail. Just rest it on the surface & pull the trigger, otherwise it will leave a mark.
For $100.00, thats a good deal.

I have 3 or 4 Bostitch bradnailers and staplers, and they must use the
cheapest O rings available, because when I let one lay around too long, and then pick it up and plug the air in, it just pops and will not work till I
put new O rings in it. The Hitachi nailers I have never screw up on their
own. I bent the safety on my 16 gauge nailer yesterday when I dropped it. But that is the only thing that has ever gone wrong with my Hitachi.
I've had a Hitachi framing nailer for at least 10 years, and it still works fine when I need it. Framed a house last winter, and it drove most of the
nails. Still worked when we were finished with it. Jim
