Hello Isaac!

The Danair RN 16-16 can drive up to a 16-penny nail - so my guess is that
the collar inside diameter is 3/8". Likewise, the Danair RN 16-8 can drive
up to an 8-penny nail - and so the collar ID is
21/64".  I have the  RN 16-8 and it is WAY plenty big on 2/0 pins - could
easily handle bigger pins. The RN 16-8 was the model that Danair recommended
to me. Good luck - You'll love it!
