Steve from the US has this to say:
“Only framing nailer I will ever use. Nothing is faster or more durable, nothing."
"I have put 100,000's of nails through my gun w/o a single problem. I am very hard on guns, example: I will use this gun like a sledge hammer by beating walls, holding it by the mag and swinging. People having issues with the second stick of nails riding atop the first should know it's probably the nails and not the gun. There are a million different brand of nails made for this gun and they are not all alike. There is a reason this design has been around for 25 years, you can not build a better mouse trap. I can not stress enough how much better this gun is compared to any other framing gun on the market.”
This is a heavy duty option that's great for the pressure that a contractor will put it through, or for a lifetime of flawless use by DIY enthusiasts. The Hitachi NR83A2 is an inexpensive quality nail gun that everyone in the market should consider.
