    I am having problems with the nail gun firing when I want it to. It will misfire several times in a row. My pressure is adjusted as it should be but it is with the trigger I'm thinking. I really like Dwalt tools. This is unusual.

    We bought this pneumatic nailer for our fence project. We had done part of our fence with hammer and nail, it took us all weekend. With our new nailer, we were able to do more fence and we were done in 4 hours. This nailer was easy to use and easy to load more nails. Now our projects will be faster and more efficient.

    I have always doubted Dewalt brand. It was not until I moved to Colorado that I saw the company I work for buy Dewalt brand. The framing gun works perfect I love it!!!

      Awsome Framing Nailer
      My husband was so happy when we got this he wanted to try it out right away. I have been waiting for him to put our gazebo together that he promised for a long time. He got this and started the project immediately. It has been working great and has not had any issues with nails getting jammed like other models he used in the past. That makes the work go a lot faster when you don't have to keep stopping to fix the jammed nails. This Dewalt nailer is great and we wouldn't trade it for any other brand. Highly recommend getting one.

      GREAT WELL BALANCED NAILER WITH LOWER FELT RECOIL THEN OTHERS
      I am really pleased with the feel and function of this framing nailer from Dewalt. The new technology in this nailer really reduces felt recoil compared to other framing nailers that I have used and the optimized center of gravity makes this nailer well - balanced and easy to use. The tool free depth of drive adjustment makes it simple to set depth to match material you are nailing thru. I took nailer and sent nails into a 4X4 post and the nailer set nail flush with surface with minimal amount of recoil.

      The gun is heavier than I thought it would be and not sinking nails properly, leaving some sticking out.

      The product is excellent, it works very well. The problem is that to get it in the store I had to wait more than 20 minutes for someone to help me open the doors because they have keys to get the product out.

      Overall these are good nails. I occasionally have problems with the plastic on the nails getting stuck under the nailhead or staying behind in the magazine not allowing the next nail to advance. This only happens occasionally and is not difficult to fix.

      Worked as required. If only the price could be worth the work time savings. Cost seems excessive. Am I paying the premium for the Dewalt name? Used a lot of words just to get over the 20 word minimum.

        Dangerous Piece of Crap
        The trigger doesn't work properly and very often misfires. Works perfectly if holding the gun upside down, but not the rest of the time. I am have shot less than 2000 nails through this gun and don't dare use it anymore, which is saying a lot because I have used some sketchy nail guns in the past. I'll stick with my Hitachi that works properly and isn't going to get someone injured. DeWalt should recall these nailers.

          Some internal seals or "O" rings failed the first time I used it; completely useless. Home Depot took it back and replaced it with another one. I have not used this one yet so I don't know if the previous issue was unique.
