When you look at this nailer you are obviously looking for something to help with your hobby or carpentry work. Please note this is a pin nailer which means the pins do not have heads. This should be used primarily to hold the wood together while the glue dries. I use this to hold the outer corners of the molding together while the glue dries so they never come loose. I wouldn't recommend it as a primary finishing nailer - you just won't get a strong, lasting hold. One thing that sets this gun apart - most 23 gauge nailers require an Allen wrench to set nail depth - this gun uses a tool-less dial that is very similar to the 18 or 16 gauge.
