Review on πŸ”§ Metabo HPT NR83A5 Pneumatic Adjustment: Enhancing Precision and Efficiency by Alexander Scharon

Revainrating 5 out of 5

So my grandkids will be using it long after I die.

That's a bad boy! It was when he wanted to score a few boards right out of the box. Smooth easy loading. Run it at 80psi and it hit a yellow pine hard. Decorating and upholstering was not a problem. It's not easy. I have to admit that at 63 my shoulders aren't what they used to be. The carcass was fine due to the installation in front of the lugs and headers, but the skin (vertical plywood) nailed with 2" ring shanks made me report a few glitches. The gun could hold him all day. There were two traffic jams, but it was my fault. I let go of the guard and it crashed into the back of the nails, breaking the clip. A broken plastic clip left the nails stuck in the head. It just had to be a little less aggressive on release. If I needed another one, I would buy again. I have a strong feeling that this one could outlive my grandchildren!

Pros
  • Power tools
Cons
