I have been using 1' Nails for the garage and 1 1/4" for the house. Not a chance. The price was outstanding for a new gun from Amazon. The next week I roofed the house (22sq) and not one miss fire or jam. I received my nailer in first rate condition.
Showed several friends the gun and now they want to borrow it. I first re-roofed a garage, went without a hitch at all. The gun was easy to adjust, just gotta remember to set it up for the length of nails your going to use. I would recommend this gun to anyone, homeowner, or professional. I ran it at 90lbs and worked like a charm.
Definitely will try other Milwaukee products. I only had a smaller roof to do, but limited time to complete it so I bought the Milwaukee 7120 roofing nailer after reading the reviews. Finished the entire roof without one jam. Thanks. It seemed to work best with about 90 - 100 psi air pressure, and even worked with lower pressure.
I have used several different brands and this one holds up just as well as any of them. I bought the Milwaukee to replace a porter cable gun that I used to have. The thick rubber pads keep the gun from sliding off of the roof even on the steeper pitches. of shingles and it has performed flawlessly. I did a lot of searching and comparing roofing guns before I decided to try this one. It's light, durable, comfortable, reliable, and with the added features of the large rubber pads on the sides of the gun and the selectable trigger, I would take this gun over any others. It is a true Milwaukee tool and in the future I will be buying more Milwaukee air tools. I have had this Milwaukee for quite a while now and I have used it to install well over a 100 sq.
It would take a couple days for the parts to come in so I went online to Amazon and saw the Milwaukee nailer. Feel was good as far as weight, no jams worked well with 1 1/4" nails and worked well with 1 3/4" ridge vent nails. If the price stays the same you just can't beat it. I am a professional but I only do a couple of roofs a year, I do mostly windows, doors and sidewalling. I would recommend this nailer to anyone who needs a new roofing nailer.
I went to do a roof and my trusty Porter Cable nailer was broken. I ordered one with overnight shipping and it came to under $200.00. There was no way I could get one at Lowe's of Home Depot for that kind of price. Put the fittings on and went right to work with it.
This is a great roofing gun. Many features, works great in the field and hopefully will have Miwaukee longevity.
