i scored a practically brand new 16ga 18v makita nailer for half price the other day because the person who pawned it put the wrong nails in it haha.. even the pawn shop guys couldn't figure out why it wouldn't fire. it cycled just fine but would dry fire every time. i noticed it had angled nails in the magazine and realised that was the problem. i talked them down in price and got away with a steal! helps if you know what to look for

I have a cordless nailer at home that handles 18, 16, 15 gauge nails along with roofing tacks and other fasteners. Has an integrated nail puller and only weighs 800g

I have one of those in titanium. Recoil is easier on the hand. Don’t you just love the easy depth adjustment? 😎👍

Excellent explanation. I’m a Yank, but prefer metric, the math is far easier.
