I pulled the trigger and bought these bits, but some of them don’t come out of the “long bits” so easily. Am I missing something?

Out of a bit holder? If that’s what you mean, that’s par for the course. My Makita gold holder puts in so much time at the gym flexing its magnets I sometimes need pliers to remove bits.

Just checking. It’s not like I don’t know how something works, assume it works a certain way, use pliers to “fix it”, then realize I was totally using it wrong.

 

Nope, never done that at all. 😛

The shockwave bits are pretty soft steel so they get stuck on par with harbor freight bits.  If you get it to impact in reverse that should loosen up the bit.

Gen 1 sucked, the red handed ones are improved but still soft, but they are more usable
