Brad Nailer Shootout – Three 2 inch guns meet the test

The Results

In our tests we found that the Bostitch gun was the overall winner but each and every gun gave its all.

There are always drawbacks in every product but the bostitch guns price to function ratio makes it one of the tools you want in your toolbox. This time around Bostitch beat out our other guns by only a small margin we hope that if they lower their cost or add features next time that margin can be extended.


Another note that we always try to make is that all of these guns cost $50 or more with the Hitachi coming in at the lowest cost it is still above the cost of knockoff discount models.

If you are in need of a 5/8 to 2″ nailer for only one or two small jobs then  we always suggest that you take price into consideration as the most important factor.
