The Grizzly arrived the other day. As mentioned in reviews, the strap on the cover appears very flimsy and the instructions are really bad, but the price was certainly right (if it works). Practiced with it and it seemed to work fine. Big test comes next weekend on joist hangers on a high in the sky, on the side of a hill, big deck.
I just put the leather cover on the Bostitch n100. Man, that is ridiculous! The snaps were over an inch apart! I used leather stretcher that I had left over from shoes, then pulled both straps with a pliers for 10 minutes until it fit!
Now I see why they don't include instructions to put it on, they would be totally embarassed to tell you how to do it. You really shouldn't need leather stretcher and pliers to put this thing on.
This tool may be the greatest thing since sliced bread, but if anybody wants to start a thread for the worst manual for a tool, this gets my vote!
Thanks again, Mike.

You don't need a parachute to skydive, you only need a parachute to skydive twice.
