Anyone out there have any feedback on this tool?
If the repair-guy isn’t successful with my bostich I will be in the market for a replacement.
what about Hitachi or Paslode?
A 2″ brad nailer is my tool of choice for trim. I don’t know what I did before I got one!
Mr T
Do not try this at home!
I am a trained professional!

T, when I decided that those small impressions from my old senco pinner nose had to go, I bought the Senco FP 25. I think that's the one you are interested in. I like the way it loads, fires and feels. It will get pretty close to the work. The cushion nose takes a little getting used to so you know where the pin will land, they could have spent a little time on designing that. The range of pins is vast, hardly ever pull out the 15 ga, those pinholes are hard to beat for finishing. I have never had any richochet, and only a cpl times a pin that decided to make a turn. It does good on regular power, but I find even in poplar, I tend to use the turbo. Good set in oak. The belt hook? Well, suffice to say, my nail gun when not in use while fitting a pc., is between my legs. That's how I got used to keeping the gun at the ready. I've used the hook, but it fell off once and I'm lucky I grabbed it before it landed and did damage to a counter top. The hook works, but for your own piece of mind when working above valuables, don't use it. Nice box, doesn't carry much else but the gun. Have had it bout 9 months I think. A good tool.

I have the Finnish Pro too, and I like it. The dual setting came in handy when I was putting up Maple crown molding on a kitchen job I did. I always put a thin white line on each side and on top of the rubber nose so I will know where to place the brad. That works great on my Senco SFN2 finnish nailer too.----------Mazz
