It was so large it could pass two 16 gauge nails easily. Three of them were doubles.
I would shoot doubles repeatedly from the start. I tried a different brand of 16 gauge nails, and different lengths too, didn't matter.
I bought this to supplement my 15 gauge nailer. We took it in the back and fired it four times.
I took it back and they sent it in for repair. A few weeks later the dealer called and said my gun was back.
Long story short I was finally able to make it work by removing the nose piece and filing it down so as to reduce the size of the nose opening. I will not purchase another.
Several great things about the DeWalt. Great for driving multiple nails quickly. I previously have used Porter Cable and that was a great product also. I own my own contracting company and use this gun in the field. If you load 3 clips of nails, the last clip has be pulled down past the lock. Its lightweight and also has a bump trigger.
It also has a multi positon exhuast head, so no more dust in the face.3.
1.
Great line of sight for intricate wood work.
I must say, it is a great gun.
4.
It has a tool belt clip so you place it at easy acess when putting up trim.
2.
Only down fall is the loading mechanism.
In time it may slide easier with a little wear, but brand new, its a little tight on the clips.
I bought this gun to build a cedar fence. I have morticed all ballusters into the rails, and using the gun to pin all the joints. Over 1,000 fires already, and not one problem.
Right out of the box this nailer has worked great.
i have my own remodeling business and we're constantly using these nailers. i have owned this nailer since it was first introduced. i've never had any misfires or jamming issues. i've loved it since the moment i started using it. i have the angled and brad nailers as well. i would have to say that the top notch detail to this gun is that they all come with belt hooks. i'd say that dewalt has a niche with that one idea alone.
