Paslode nail guns…

Anybody use Paslode nail guns? I have both the trim and the framing nail guns. The framing gun is about 27 or 28 years old and the trim gun is about 10 years old. Both use a battery and fuel cell. They’re great for when you have a small job and don’t wanna break out compressors, hoses and pneumatic nail guns.

I recently cleaned the framing gun, because it was not working properly. There are several parts that fail due to age. Works like a champ….. for now.

One problem I have now is, the type of metering device on the top of the fuel cell. They changed about 10 or 15 years ago and no longer supply the type I need. I have to switch the nozzle from the old fuel cell to the new fuel cell. I found a pack of five fuel call adapters on eBay, that I will keep for the future, because I don’t want to spend $400 on a new Paslode, that uses the updated fuel cell.

My buddy just bought a DeWalt battery powered framing nail gun and it weighs a ton. Trying to nail something overhead, was exhausting and frustrating. No Thanks.

Soooo…. What kind of nail gun do you have?
