Tom: not trying to be too picky, but for clarity sake - do you have the Danair RN 16-16 (can drive up to a 16-penny nail - the collar ID is 3/8") or the Danair RN 16-8 (can drive up to an 8-penny nail - the collar ID is 21/64"). There is only 3/64" difference between the two - I don't know if, or how much difference that might make. I have the RN 16-8 and it is WAY plenty big on 2/0 pins - could easily handle bigger pins. I just thought this should be clarified just in case Isaac is ready to go out and buy one of these things.
