It's the wrong color.? For Imran to upgrade doesn't it need to be a different color?

I have never had issues with my Omer PR.30 pin nailer not sinking the heads even in hardwoods.? I HAVE had issues with my Grex 21 gauge nailer sinking heads consistently.? Consider upgrading:

Hi Mike,

No I did not try that and Grex did not recommend it. It is boxed up now to go back.?

BTW, what I shared here was after it was reviewed by Grex. The smaller body is good for maybe 3/4” in hardwood and probably works fine in softwoods to 1 3/8”.

The bigger body is not that much bigger, so I prefer that solution. I am getting a pinner so I have small holes and if it can’t reliably do that then it is annoying. The larger body drives 2” pins, so it will likely do 1 3/8”.

Hello Imran,

?

Have you tried ?pressing one hand down on the ‘head’, while pulling the trigger with the other??
My old Senco pinner requires this on longer pins, and especially 1 1/2” in hardwoods.? Extra

head mass helps overcome the recoil.? If the countersink is too shallow, I grind a 1/16” off the

’nose’ of the tool, as well as the ‘wings’ of the driver blade.? And remember, most manufacturers overestimate driving ranges on smaller air pinners/nailers..

?

When all else fails, get a larger pinner…..
