A:  Buy it, . I have a house that took major damage down in the Bahamas. Used this tool the whole time I was down there with no issues. Had a small generator to run periodically to work the homes water pump and charge the batteries. Wouldn’t have been able to use air tools.

    A:  We purchased this tool for our son because he was very specific about what he wanted. I just called him and relayed your question and he loves it for what he does, which is small projects and craft work. He said if you are in construction or using a nail gun regularly, he recommends air.

        A:  I bought one and am a construction framer as a trade. Although this isn't my primary nailer as I use pneumatic ones, this unit is very dependable and allows me to nail areas not accessible and expedites the job. I have owned it for over a year with no problems at all and would buy it again.

                                  A:  Paslode nails don’t work to well in the dewalt framer. The hitachi nails work better. The framer does have problems shooting longer nails but overall it’s an awesome nailer

                                                  A:  Framing nailers do not define gauge. They are based on degrees. The DCN692 requires 30-34 degree, 2"-3 1/2" clipped head nails. Please contact DEWALT at 1-800-433-9258 for any other assistance.
