Very nice. Put about 10,000 1-1/2” staples through it with maybe 5-10 proud staples and no jams. At times it seems like the mechanism that determines which firing mode you’re in fails and you can manage to double shoot. Still, this is mostly me being picky. It’s a fantastic gun. By the way, the piston/driver top is now all metal and the air release is out of the back near the gun air hose connection. Don’t underestimate how great that little improvement is. The old plastic deflector doesn’t get damaged when you drop it (or when you inevitably use it as a hammer) and you never get a blast of sawdust infused air sprayed into your face. Finally the belt loop should have a double action release as the single can be inadvertently activated by hammer loops or other tools and be disconnected. Happened to me twice.

The first thing I did when I got this stapler is load it with 1/4 inch crown Senco brand 1 1/2 inch long staples and shoot into hard, dry fir. Sank them all, no problem. I have yet to use the Bostitch 5/32 crown staples. Rest assured, this is a 1/4 inch crown finish stapler.I bought this one because it's one of the few that have dry fire lockout. I find it quite annoying to have to constantly check the magazine to see what's left, and much more annoying to have to backtrack through blank holes. With this one you just shoot until it stops and then reload. Love it!The belt hook was another must have for me. I recently put up 100+ cedar fence boards with stainless steel staples (1/4 inch crown of course) and that hook was a very convenient time saver.This stapler does have tool free jam clearing although it works differently than most. Instead of unclipping the front half of the nose piece, you simply open the magazine and the rear half slides back with it giving you access to any jams. Haven't had to use it but a nice feature.Oilless is a very nice convenience as well.The only con for me is the case. It's sturdy enough but has very little room for extra staples. The tool itself is definitely 5 stars.

I like the stapler alot. Using it for wood flooring installation. While not configured for installing wood flooring, it was jury-rigged to do so and did an acceptable job. Having more floors to do, will make a jig to work better. I have used the stapler in another application and it worked great. It is relatively small and easy to handle. I did not give this stapler 5-stars because of Amazon's delivery. For an "in stock" item, it took nearly a week to get it even though it was eventually shipped from a neighboring state. Unacceptable in my opinion.
