Review on PORTER CABLE Hammer 2 Inch Pistol PCE141 by Jeremy Choi

Like most Porter-Cable offerings, this is a quality tool! I recently drilled eight holes about 3 inches deep in very hard concrete and the hammer drill worked very well. the reason for only four stars is the rather useless side handle and the depth gauge attachment. You just can't tighten it enough to keep it from slipping off the collar and becoming a spinning menace on contact with a cartridge or bat. It fell off every time I used it, that was 3 times before I threw it in my toolbox and used a piece of tape on my drill to measure the depth. No amount of hand tightening will prevent this. Otherwise great tool, but it sucks!
