Bought it to replace my older one, which wore out after 7 or 8 years.

I have had the whole PC nailer kit for 12 years and have used the 250C probably about 20-30 times a year and no failure until recently probably because I dropped the gun from a ladder. I have used the 1 5/8″ gun hundreds of times and never a failure.

Lightweight, easy to load & use 16 gauge nailer; non-marring tip is great. I have only had the nailer for a few days but have already “fired” approximately 500 nails with it putting wood on a large feature wall. Major decision point was the price compared to other similar nailers. Product meets all my expectations.

I have a porter cable but 15Ga. Which is great for bigger trim but I had 300 boards to put up only 1/4 thick & this 16Ga works great not splitting them.

This is the second Porter Cable air nailer that I have purchased. The first one worked great. I probably shot a 1000 or so nails out of it. However, the other day I went to use it and it would not shoot. I do not know why. So I’m trying a Porter Cable again. Hope it keeps working.

Works just as well as the 20 year old gun I’m replacing, with the added benefit of being much easier to load.
