k99yle 53 Posted July 16, 2015 Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 Wouldn't mind everyone's opinion on the dewalt nail gun. Seemingly better than paslode, battery lasts for ages and you don't have to buy gas? I've 2 paslode guns but I'd happily change to dewalt cause I could interchange my drill batteries with it. I have a Dewalt first fix nail gun. Drives 90mm galvanised ringshanks all the way into good treated timber all day long. No Pasload, hitachi, air nailer, gas gun will do that. Great bit of kit. Maintenance free also. Just needs a bit of silicone spray to make the nails slide easily in the carrier. Cheers That's the kind of stuff I want to hear mate....seems a no brainier. Although I'm a fencer and my paslode does bang in 90s all the way no probs. The 'first fix' you mention...I'm guessing this is what I would call a 'roughing gun'...cheers Are you saying your pasload will drive 90mm galvanised ringshanks all the way into treated c24 timber? I very much doubt it mate as i have never seen it done and don't know anyone that has. You may be able to do it with fencing timber but you won't with structual timbers.

No mate just talking about the fencing wood....?? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
slip lead 862 Posted July 16, 2015 Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 There would be no point in a nail gun if they didn't drive the nails right in. The new pasload have solved the problem of gas in cold weather and are the most common on site Quote Link to post Share on other sites
