Customer Feedback

Contractor Tough! 

” Just bought this gun after my old bostitch stick nailer died. I must say this thing is amazing.
As a contractor, I love the features it has. It feels well balanced and is easier to fit in smaller spaces than the traditional stick nailer. I like how I can set it down on its face when im working, I just grab it and go. no laying down and picking up.
A bonus feature that I did not expect nor does the write up tell you about is that It comes with a factory rafter hook that is well placed.

The only thing I can say bad is that it didn’t come with a case, not really a big deal but here on the coast rust is a problem so I like to keep tools in their cases.”

Cant go wrong with this gun.

Great Framing Nailler

” This review is from: Stanley Bostitch N89C-1 Coil Framing Nailer (Tools & Home Improvement)
This framing gun is everything I expected it to be. I like the coil nailers better than the stick nailers because they are much easier to work with in tight areas. Not to mentioned the N89C-1 is capable of driving 16d nails which was the advantage of the stick nailers before. Amazon’s great price and fast shipping just makes everything that much better.

Note: The framing gun comes with two triggers “Smart” (Black Trigger) and “Sequential” (Gray trigger). I left the “Smart” trigger on as that is what I have always used. Some people like to change out the triggers because of the possibility of a double fire if the gun hits the surface twice. If you can control the gun and not let it bounce back after the recoil you shouldn’t have any problems with double firing. ”

Final Comment about Stanley Bostitch N89C-1

Despite its heft due to the 300 nail capacity, it is the nail gun for any job. Its compact size makes it easy to work in small or tight areas and still deliver nailing action with speed and accuracy. The nailer is equipped with a rafter hook that allows the gun to be placed on a nail and out of the way, rather than put it down and risk kicking or stepping on it.

The 300 nail capacity lends itself nicely to production and in construction time is money and production is defined by time. The nailer is found to shoot and drive nails accurately every time and seldom jams or misfires. The major selling point for a pneumatic nail gun is they have fewer moving parts and few parts means less to wear out or damage from constant use at a busy project construction site or a weekend do it yourself  project.
