Love it, works great especially the push to shot feature. Easy to switch it on and off. Works better than my Hitachi gun. Light weight too.

It was exactly what I needed to rebuild my fence. It's nice and light, easy to load the nails, and simple to make quick depth adjustments.

Nice nail gun
Bought this on sale. A nice nail gun but occasionally it will dry fire and you have to release the nail slide and reset it. Personally I like the Harbor freight 21 framing gun since it's a bit lighter fon continuous use and half the price on sale. since we each had a nail gun putting up fence slats.

Great nailer
Anyone who has an issue with this mailer must be user error or lack of oiling daily. My job sites have a lot of sand often gets sand ram through it and never a single issue.

    Fair score
    Out of the box, auto nailing works good. However, single nailing works intermittently.

    Dewalt does not back up this nailer
    My nailer was leaking air from the trigger. Contacted Dewalt but they didn’t help. Stay far away from this nailer. Buy a Makita instead. I closed my contract with Dewalt and switched 300 of my framing crew guys away from Dewalt tools. They should use better quality o-rings and design their tools for easy repair. I tossed mine in the garbage!

      Great framing nailer
      Works as well as a pneumatic without having to mess with a hose.

      finding a case I tricky. but
      great nail gun. I wanted a case and nothing is designed for it. I found a Husky storage box with the clear snap seal lid fits very well and leaves room for boxes of nail. I used foam to provide cushioning and reduce rattle.

        I prefer this product
        I typically prefer Porter Cable, at 7.3 lbs. Their framing nailer is lighter than Dewalts, which comes in at whopping 8 lbs. For the average installer that has to lift this unit as much as 500x's daily, 350lbs gets wasted on draw alone. It's a hardline between popped nails and putting the work in.
