I’ve decided to purchase my first 18 ga finish stapler and I’ve visited the distributors in my area. I’ve narrowed it down to the PC ns150, the Senco sls18. My buddy just bought a Bostich 18 ga stapler from Amazon, and it felt good in my hand, too. I need reliability and no jambs. I can get nails for all three locally, so I’d like to know what your opinions are.

Wspievak,
I've used the PC extensively and own the Senco. Both guns perform very well with almost no jamming and effortless clearing if they do. both have no trouble with any brand of staples I've used in them; Senco, PC, low cost generics from Western Tool, and even Harbor Freight's house brand. If it's for hard pro use, I'd go with the Senco, but for hobby and occsional remodel, the PC would be my choice because of the substantial price differance. Hope this helps,
CHRIS
