Like I said in my original post, there is a time when they are better than normal clips,like under carpets,I'm not looking to abuse them like the BT boys do. I had a Draper one many moons ago,but that was toilet.

if the cable was being fixed and not in trunk or on brick i would always use the gun, why not? as long as it isn't set to high causing resistance problems ect.

What does LBHA stand for?

local borough housing authority.[council scum contracts]

Oh I see!

I only use them where cable can't be conceiled, and clips would stand out too much.
