Grex or cadex

The guys at Popular Woodworking are constantly singing the praises of Grex. They look great, but a bit pricey for me.

When you say "pin" nailer, It would help if you specified what guage or what task you intend to perform with the nailer.

Hi.

I have a Nikle NS2340, it is a good pin gun for the money ($179.00) and can shoot both headless pins, or the 23 gauge brad nails up to 1 9/16" long. http://www.nikletools.com/page_brad.html
I did read a review of the NS2340,where Gary Katz said the hand grip was to small for his large hands , but I have never had the same problem.

Hope this is helpfull...Graham...

I have had the porter cable for a while and love it. It goes for around a 100 and it feels great in my hand!

Same here. Have the PC and it works great.

Chris,

I've had one from Harbor Freight for years. It's proven reliable and you can't beat the price.

A pin nailer uses 23ga. "nails". That's why it's called a "pin" nailer -- more like pins than nails.

Another vote for the Grex -- you can get starter kit with P635 and 3,000 pins for ~$200 here:

I've purchased a few things from thefastenercompany and highly recommend.

Yep. Works well for me, too. Price is right. The PC nailer is small enough to be easily maneuverable to get in places other can't.

We've always refered to a 18g as a pin nailer. We refer to 23g as a needle nailer. Thats why I asked.

I have a Grex and while somewhat costly, your criteria was "Good". The Grex then must be one of those that you consider as it sure is good.

[Dave Lehnert]

I have the Senco brand and it works well.

[Jim Becker]

I also have the Grex and it is really good quality. Faded and Nickle would also be on my radar if I were buying today.
