PFS16 Pneumatic 16-Gauge, 1” Fencing Stapler | Tool-Free Depth Adjust, Jam Release, and Wire Alignment | for Trellising, Snow Control, and Pet Fencing | Includes Adjustable Belt Hook

This stapler made speedy work of attaching galvanized mesh fencing to 6” diameter cedar posts. I haven’t used it much - about 650 staples so far - but it has worked flawlessly. No jamming or misfires, perfect depth at 95psi, easy to reload. The metal construction feels solid and sturdy - there’s very little plastic anywhere on the tool. The actuator and trigger both have good tension and the action is very powerful. This model is right in the sweet spot for a residential DIY user like myself - between the lighter duty 18 gauge Freeman stapler and the much heavier duty utility staplers from Freeman, Fasco, Paslode, DeWalt and Milwaukee that all come with a price tag in the $400-$1,000 range. All in all quite happy with my purchase and looking forward to getting to use it again for the next stages of my fencing project.

The stapler arrived promptly and has worked as advertised. The stapler is solidly constructed and I have fired several hundred staples in the past month without incident. Due to building structure considerations, I would not have been able to do this work without a pneumatic stapler. Also, kudos to Freeman, who apparently doesn't sell staples directly to individual customers but they were most helpful in helping me find a vendor that could get the staples to me within my time frame. I recommend this stapler.

Drove more than 1500 staples this week. The tool is a lifesaver. I cannot imagine driving all those staples by hand. Tool did not ever let me down. Yes, I did experience the double-tap (and triple) but I think I understand why. At times, I did not have the safety tip properly seated. It would then sometimes double tap. Not really the tools fault. I would by this tool again without hesitation.

Overall, the staple gun does its job. However, there are instances where it will shoot multiple staples at the same time, even when firmly pressed against the post. It comes with lubricating and everything you need to maintain the gun itself. For the cost, I would say the gun is definitely worth it as it was able to do everything needed for for getting the hog wire fencing attached to the posts and crossbeams and other guns with similar functionality are much more expensive. The depth adjuster works well, and I was able to set the depth to exactly what was needed for the fencing gauge that we had. The only reason that I gave the gun four stars was due to the instances where it’ll shoot 2 to 3 additional staples when you only need one.

This staple gun uses the freeman fs16g75 staples narrow crown 3/16-1/4 configuration, not available locally. Will not accept the the staples shown in “customers also ordered” notation.

Trigger gets stuck after one use

Great gun made putting up field fence three times faster than hammering staples!!!!!!!

I added metal mesh to 3 acres of split rail fencing with this and it worked great. No jams. I went through 2 big boxes of staples with jt. I added oil once when opened and once between stable boxes. It's paid for itself at this point. Overall very happy with it.
