By Alian G. Garay
I fired about 4,000 1.5 inch staples for a wood dowel fence with wire cattle fencing on the inside. Stapler did rather well. Drove all staples in at about 100 psi or more in the line. Anything less and it won't drive deep enough. In fact, the drive at 150 psi is so powerful, that if you don't adjust the driving depth all the way out, the staple goes so far into the wood that it cuts the metal wire of the fence. This is a plus, cause you should prefer better driving depth that can be adjusted out rather than poor driving depth that can't. The flaws were these: #1. About every 10-20 staples the stapler would fire 2-3 staples like an automatic machine gun. It would do this despite me not trying to do it. #2. About every 800-1000 staples, the feeding mechanism would lock out (like a tongue sticking out). I would disconnect the air hose and it would go back in, but when I reconnected it, it would go back out not allowing another staple to fire. I finally figured out how to fix it, you had to push against the wood real hard to shove it back in and fire the staple gun. This would re-set it back to proper location to continue. #3. About every 600 staples, the gun would leak air from within. Again, the way to fix it was to fire the staple gun again and what ever was lodged open, would reset. #4. This one was down right dangerous. 3 times during the job, the stapler began spontaneously firing like a machine gun despite my finger not being on the trigger. It is suppose to not fire unless pressed against something. twice it happened immediately after a fire and kept going despite removing it off the wood, once it happened spontaneously just holding it without ever putting it on wood or firing it. Let me tell you, those staples went out like bullets, went into hard wood about 0.5 to 1 cm from 3 - 4 feet away. DO NOT POINT THIS GUN FOR ANY REASON IN ANY DIRECTION OTHER THAN WOOD. The way to fix and stop this issue was to disconnect the air hose and it would reset. I will say, despite these issues, I never had a jam that required removal of a staple or opening the feeding mechanism. The stapler otherwise did a fantastic job getting the fence done. I would say, this is a hard working stapler that drives well and is meant for hard long jobs. That being said, staplers with better safety mechanisms tend to jam more or not drive as well. That was one of the criticisms of the comparable Dewalt. I would still recommend this stapler, but you have to be aware that it can be dangerous. I guess the way I see it, any and all staplers and nailers have to be treated like loaded weapons and never pointed toward anyone. I realize you may be thinking, who would point it at anyone, but just in manipulation, you can inadvertently point it at someone and they can get hurt. Be extra careful with this one. I give it 3.5 stars overall.

this stapler is worth the money. it does shoot a jacked staple every so often but it has not jammed yet (2000 staples).

By Dr. K
I have used the Senco SNS41 Staple gun for only a short time, shooting about four clips of one inch staples into cyprus and pressure treated wood repairing fencing.The stapler drives the one inch staples with ease and allows for depth control - nice feature.The stapler has dual shooting capability - place gun, pull trigger; or hold trigger and bump gun against wood. Both features are nice, especially when rapidly placing staples.We have had numerous occasions in which the gun fired multiple times when we were attempting to precisely place one staple. The gun would fire on trigger pull, and then if not held against the wood hard enough, the recoil would cause the gun to bounce driving another staple, and sometimes two or three if we did not catch it fast enough. It would be nice if the bump fire could be temporarily inhibited for these situations. Other than that, I have no issues to date, and would purchase again.
