Good Roofing Nailer for the Money [Posted on 2008-05-27]
I was pleased with the nailer, the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because I could never get it to work properly with the sequential trigger installed. It works flawlessly with the bump trigger installed.
More than adequate and a Great Value [Posted on 2008-06-21]
At first, had a tough time completely setting 1 3/4" nails through second layer of shingles. Increased compressor pressure to 100 and had no more problems. Only one misfire in well over 10,000 nails so far. I occasionally bump the trigger lock when picking up the gun which is slightly annoying. A few other guns I've used are easier to load coils, but this is not a big deal compared to the very reasonable price. More than happy with this purchase.

We were going to buy a nailer from Harbor Freight, but they did not offer a budget nailer (under $100) for 11 guage, 1 3/4" nails. After some online shopping, we decided to go ahead and spend a little more money to buy this Dewalt nailer from Amazon. We are using it to overlay new shingles over old on our house. So far, the nailer works well and we are pleased with this purchase.

Great price! I can appreciate the lightweight body and ease of use. I don't like the plastic trigger though. The rubber skids on the sides of the gun are a good idea to prevent shingle injury. Also, the exhaust should be more easily adjustable. So far I am pretty satisfied with this gun, although at the end of each coil my gun has about a 90% ratio of shooting the last nail. I've had no problems with double shots unless I'm not paying attention to what I'm doing.
Not Impressed [Posted on 2008-07-08]
I purchased two of these Dewalt roofing nailers, just about 3 weeks ago. So far, each gun has approximately 3000 nails through them, and already some very negative things have happened. First of all, both nailers have a double shot problem, that seems to be very consistant. I would say that about every 15th nail, has to be pounded in with a hammer, and about every 20th shot, is a double nail, which also has to be pounded in with a hammer. Not very efficient at all. I have tried both trigger assemblies, and it does not matter which one is used. If you are considering a roofing nailer, the only one I recommend is Bosch. I have a couple of these, and both have 15000+ nails through them, with only one misfire (due to a bad nail). Spend a little more and get a Bosch.
