I have a PC gun, it's not a framing gun, but a finishing... so not
exactly good for heavy construction but definately shines at what it was
meant to do. Absolutely indispensable for trim work. Very happy with
the quality, although if you're not firmly planted, there is always the
risk of a "double shot" where the gun rebounds and fires again. :(
Speaking of quality... I am incredibly surprised at the quality of my
$20 Harbor-Freight 18g brad nailer. I have put many, many brads through
this thing, and it works amazingly well. The biggest downfall is the
complete lack of any safety whatsoever. Thankfully it's not too
powerful so anything beyond a foot is pretty safe, but it still gives me
the heebies. :)
