I just had my Marson klik fast pop rivet gun bust on me today absolutley loved that thing, was looking at what everyone else uses and what’s lasted for them.

Thanks

I buy whatever hd has on shelf.  But not the cheapest one lol.  They always break every few years if you use heavily. For pneumatic riveter, believe it or not the harbor freight ones are great.  They aren’t perfect but I’ve had my current one for 3 years. The one before lasted 6 or 7 years.  This time i kept the rebuild kit that comes with it to redo all the seals. I mostly use blind rivets as well.

I’ve liked the Stanley one with the rotating head. But after a few dozen 3/16″ rivets, it cracked (this was 2 years into owning it)

But really, i’m no expert, i’m just waiting on a cordless one from Milwaukee lol as was discussed before here

I have one left over from my fathers tool kit. I don’t think I ever looked at what brand it was… Still working after light duty 25 years on…

I’ve got a Stanley I’ve had 4 years. Can’t complain about it, but I don’t use it much. Marson is pretty much the standard in pop riveting

Malco makes a pretty nice rivet gun as well.  Remember when i was an apprentice the journeyman i worked under had a malco and i remember liking it… not enough to buy one though i guess lol.
