    I see Waltons has the hog ring pliers on sale. Are these the same pliers that many are having problems with getting tight? Has this issue been solved?
    I hate to bring up negatives but I’ve been interested in these pliers for some time

        Mine stuck and didnt move the next ring into place. Added a tiny amount of oil to the slide and it works much better

          Yes, the problem seems to be that they use a 3/8” ring, which is to big for most everything I have used them on. The best way I get them to work is use a pair of vise gripes after I crimp them to tighten it.

            The other problem I have with them is the trail end of the ring sticks up at an angle and pokes a hole in the bag or casing.
