Does this drive the 1 3/4 nails good? I need to reroof my house and concerned about it being able to constantly drive the longer nails. Thanks

Yes it did a great job of driving these nails. The 1 3/4 inch nail is what I used. I just turned down the output from the compressor to about 80 psi and went to work. There are also depth adjustments on the gun itself. I only used mine for one job and then put it back into a box until next time that I might need it. I am really happy with this purchase. Hope this helps.Mike. (Joy is my wife)

Yes it does drive 1 3/4 nails just fine. I have now had my reconditioned gun for several years and it has worked flawlessly. Much of that has been with 1 3/4 nails.

It sure worked great for me. I layed and nailed down concrete gray board over all my floors before I tiled. It was such a time saver. The only thing (not an issue) is that sometimes it would double nail when I didn't have the nailing bumper completely down to the floor. That was from me getting in to much of a hurry though. Thanks

I think it will work well. It has several tools that will whittle down a thick nail. Just be careful not to go too deep.

Laid about 3000sf of flooring with this nailer and didn't have a problem. The manual I have does not have any contact information on it or trouble shooting. Think it is pretty important to put a little oil where the hose attaches to the nailer.

it will drive 2/12" finish nails without hesitation. Fencing may require framing nails which would be another tool

The speed carries from 2,4,6,8& 10. 2 being the lowest and 10 being the fastest. Set it to the desired number (I work with 2-4 for acrylics fills to make the acrylic and natural nail flush. It's gentle enough for me and doesn't damage my nail bed. I use 6 to get gel polish off my acrylic with one if my gold nail bits I bought off of Anazon) and the speed will remain the same. It will only go faster or slower IF you change the number. Hope this helps!

Absolutely... The one I bought has a reset issue, but otherwise works great with up to 2inch nails. I load a half rack of nails instead of a full rack and that seems to help. I bought mine for $120. Well worth it!!!

I honestly can not answer that for you right now. Hopefully someone else sees this and gives you an answer. I just started doing my own nails at home and I am a 1st time drill owner. I don't know much about this drill, other than how well it works. :-)

This is a trim gun, not a framing gun. I love mine. I use it for crown, base, window casing, doors, windows, and other stuff. The 16G nails that it shoots have virtually no head and I can almost bend them barehanded. If you only have a few walls to put up, consider buying an impact driver and screwing them in. Buy this trim nailer for everything else. I own the angled nailer. It was only $349.00 before tax. After it fell off the second story and died. It cost another $200.00 to resurrect it. This financial statement is informational. I don't regret having spent the money. I own an 18V Makita and a Rigid impact driver. I love them both. I have used a DeWalt and it is a sweet tool, also.

My nails are 13 3/4 distance, I am not a precise person, so I hope this helps. Enjoy your Christmas Season! :)

You don't need this power. I would stay with something less expensive & lower power. This rotates at a min of 5,000 RPMs up to 35,000 RPMs & can quickly heat up the nail & finger tip.

Mr. Pfremmer, The PCN65 is not designed to handle the standard 1-1/4" roofing nails. It uses plastic collated and wire collated siding nailes which are longer and don't have as large of a head as the roofing nails. I hope this helps.

Hint: for a 2" nail, keep all fingers 3" away from whatever you're nailing. Perhaps hire a contractor.

Probably. It's a #16 finish nail. You wail probably use more nails than usual.

If you go to Home Depot they currently sell this nail gun and you can see it on their website as well. It's a 30 degree nail gun I have several of them. And yes they sell the nails there too. 2"-3 1/4"

I don't do a whole lot of re-roofs, I like to start with a clean, sound deck but I've done a couple of small re-roofing jobs and I haven't had any issues with this gun, you may have to adjust the air pressure or the nail depth on the gun itself but no issues driving the 1 3/4 nails, hope this helps

the 31 degrees is the angle the nails are in the clip.. when u buy nails u want to buy the nails that can be shot from your gun. so this gun uses 31 degrees nail clips... the clipped head means the nails are not full round headed nails... i got this gun off amazon and just used it to frame 1350sq ft full remodel basement. no problems.. Used 2 boxes of 2000 nails.. about $36 a box 31 degree clipped head from home depot.. lowes doesnt carry them fyi.. love it!
