Ralph,
Thank you for taking the time to read and comment on my review.
You are right, I should have mentioned that it is an air powered nailgun, and that it takes the clipped head "stick type" nails. I probably should also add that I have used compressors as small as a 4 gallon tank "pancake" style with this nailgun, and while I would not want to frame a whole house in that manner it works quite well for smaller projects such as room additions and decks.
Once again thank you,
Tim Thompson

Well Written and I Agree With Your Assessment (Reply to this comment)

It is not the best nail gun available by any stretch of the imagination. I have a friend that I used to work with and he had the same problem with double fires. Glad to here you oil frequently.

If I were new to nail guns, I would have liked a few more details about the type of nails it used (coil or stick) and the type of power it uses (electric or air). Remember a first time buyer doesn't know anything about this gun. Other than this the article would be helpful to others.
