This nailer has worked very well for me. I use Senco nails with virtually no problems. It is very light weight. The depth control is very easy to use.
I'm a contractor and use this gun everyday for everything from exterior trim in New England temperature extremes (many days in single digits)to interior trim and hardwood flooring. Belt hook is good too, especially on pump jacks and wall brackets doing trim. Thousands of nails fired, including stainless all sizes without jamming. Oil the gun daily and use 34 degree nails, you won't be dissapointed.
Nails and are a little too tight for the 15ga Dewalt. Turns out they are 14ga. Out for a new box of senco 15ga nails and things work like a charm. The new problem was the gun that held the nails together colleted in the nose of the gun and jammed things up. This gun started out bad for me, first I was using nails left over from my old Senco sfn2 gun. They worked but had a lot of sticking. But it was touch and go for a while with this gun, but I very happy now. So I went to my local lumberyard a bought some generic 15ga nails.
The nails are easy to load, and visible when loaded so easy the check size and qty. I will aslo need to get a framming gun as well since this is not big enough to fasten 2X's. This means now I need to upgrade and get the dewalt 18 gauge. This nail gun has been flawless. (No shooting blanks with this gun)The only issues I have had with it are, limited selection of nails for it in the big Orange Store. And then using it for small trim when my Sears Brand 18 guage finish nailer wore out.
Great product, used several times with moldings and casings, as well as furniture. No jambs and no mechanical problems, you can even nail into small pieces with no splitting, nails sink below the surface and straight every time. Finished jobs 5 times faster than by hammer and nails.
