I just received my order from PR for a 16 and 28 gauge roll crimper. They changed the design by removing the rollover pins and now have an annular ring with 4 indents. I'll be interested to see if there's any difference in crimp quality. The price was right, however.

I found that you need to put moderate downward pressure on the crimper to get a nice crimp. I was using to little pressure and the crimps were not satisfactory, but when I tried using firm downward pressure the crimps looked like a factory roll.
