Nail Quantity
This may seem silly. I'm looking for a finish nailer and I'm down to the Bostitch or Porter Cable. The nails for the Bostitch only seem to come in 4000 packs where the PC I can get 1000 packs (at about 1/3 the price). I guess I didn't want $100 tied up in bench stock of finish nails and maybe only use a couple hundred of a particular size. Are generic FN style finish nails available in smaller quantities for the Bostitch? Or do you find you may only use 2 or 2 1/4 nails for 99% of the time? Does the same hold true for pinners and brad nailers?
