What do you prefer in a framing nailer. The job I am on now, framing a garage,using a Makita. You have to be very careful how you handle the nails in this hot weather, because they slip a little out of place and jam in the gun,especially the 8’s,and jam. Not to mention the plastic hitting you in the face. I would use my old Paselode SK312 but there are no nails for it on the job. Now that Paselode makes a full head nail,offset as it may be, it still is accepted as a full head nail.

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming
