Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

Tap nailing is recommended. Easy to adjust nail depth with a dial. Used for 300 ft of fencing with minimal jams.

Not bad for diy. Seems to be a durable product.



Cons

The gun double fires about 25% of the time - somewhat less when bump nailing. It works best to pull the trigger and bump fire, but this is not accurate. They use glue or some kind of cheap tac bronze weld on metal to metal part looks like glue.

Same problem a month after purchasing the tool. Better to get a branded unit. Bottom line spend the extra $100 and get a makita. Full refund was given.

    A couple double fires as indicated in other reviews but most likely user error and not the guns fault

    Probably not the right choice if you are in the siding business but if you only have a couple projects and can work at your own pace i
