    I just bought a crown stapler, model SX 1838 and I've literally put about four or five sticks of staples through it. My stuff comes out of the box, gets used and then gets put back in the box closed up and put away every time. I'm the only one that uses it and it does not get thrown around. I pulled it out today and shot one staple and it quit working. I opened it up and the head valve was broken. I remember when Bostitch used to make really good staple guns. I first started using them at a furniture factory 25 years ago and would have the same gun for what seem like forever without issue. We had other brands, but the factory got a contract with Bostich and they became the coveted stapler and nailer among the workers. It's sad to see so many companies compromising on quality just for a little higher profit margin. The thing is that I don't know if it doesn't come back to bite them in the butt in the long run. I have always been willing to spend more money for what I believe is a quality lifetime tool and I imagine other people are like that. On the flipside when I become convinced that a company is cutting corners I start looking for a new company. Anyways, it's just a testament to where things have gone and how little people care about their name.

    I have one similar, a SB1664FN, and the driver comes out but does not return, or not far enough to clear the next nail head. Going to try this and I'll let you know. Many thanks.

    Would it being gunked up cause the driver to not retract? I just got a jam recently with this nailer. Cleared the jam now it'll only shoot one nail then just air. The driver doesn't retract on its own like yours that you demonstrated @4:45

      It's possible. I would tear it down and inspect all the parts, especially the head valve and piston ring.

    i have a Bostich bt1850 variant of that nailer. I likely bought it around 2000-2001. i used it for the trim on a couple renovations between the 2 homes we've owned. it was sticking as well. I openned mine up today before watching this video and nothing really was wrong with it, other than possibly a few tiny pieces of wood chips in the valve head area... I wonder if it sucks in debris from the nailing when the driver retracts? I picked it out with a toothpick and reassembled it.... I'm doing about 60' of baseboard later this week. Will see if it can do the whole room without jamming. It would quit working about every 15 nails or so IIRC. I think there was a bit of silicone grease in there for the orings. I did not add any more.

      I found my problem was I wasn't using bostich brad nails. Seems it only likes oem brad nails.

    So my gun (same model) will shoot 1 1/2 in nails and below fine. But wont fire a 2 in nail. Has plenty of air pressure. Any thoughts?

    My head valve exploded, plastic debris all over the inside of the cylinder. 😕

      Yep, that happens. Might as well change out the piston ring while it's apart.

    Mine Bostich and Dewalt are doing this. I am very disappointed in both.. morecwith DeWalt because I literally no joking, nailed two items and it' stopped working. Shame on both companies for making inferior products. At least when a product is Chinese made, we can say, well I paid peanuts for it..but when you spend $200 on TOOL ONLY, no battery nor charger, it just passes you off.

      Did you use oem brand name nails? If you don't, it will jam.
