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