Just did my roof with it and it worked beautifully. Only misfired once and that is because I don't think I loaded it perfectly. Keep the trigger down and bounce from one spot to the next. Don't try to shoot it like a gun on shingles maybe drip edge. It will dry fire empty. It was about the same price to buy this and do the job at my speed vs renting and paying more for the nails and having to drive back and forth a couple times. Very good product very good delivery. Only one size nails @ 1 1/4 but half the price of some others. I would like some 1 3/4 for other purposes.

It works well. Sometimes it double fires if you push down too hard before pulling the trigger.

Great Roofing Nailer
Works great for my small jobs as a homeowner. I do not think it would be the best for a professional. I would buy it again as it is a good value for me.

I WANTED TO LOVE IT
I WANTED A NAILER FOR A SPECIFIC PROJECT SO I DIDN'T GO FOR THE MORE "PROFESSIONAL" MODEL. THE PROBLEM WITH THIS GUN IS THAT IT DOESN'T FEED PROPERLY. APPROXIMATELY EVERY THIRD NAIL, IT HAS TO BE REFED. IT IS ANNOYING AND SLOW.

This was a great value. I recently did the roof on my garage and was very happy with the performance of this tool. It is light and has a solid feel. Also it was easy to load. Don't know how it would stand up for a pro but great for a DIY'er

reliable and tough.
I was looking for a nailgun that was affordable and durable to redo my garage roof. After looking at several, i chose the Freeman pcn45. It worked perfectly. It even survived a fall from the staging with just a few scratches. Great coil nailer for the price.

Great for the price!
I am not an expert or professional roofer, but this nailer worked perfectly for the 600 sq. ft. roof I did. Considering the reasonable price, the product is great.

good value for the money
This gun would be more for a Handyman and not a roofing contractor. I don't have that much time on it but compared to the Bostich Gun it looks like a little too much plastic and in cold weather could fracture also not sure on the replacemant parts . These are small things and still think it is a good value.

better than expected
This gun works better than I expected. I did have like 4 double taps but other then that it works great. very nice to have it so light to. and the ease of loading is wonderful when your on a ladder. and the belt hook is big enough that you can make it fit the rungs on the ladder.

Coil nailer by Freeman
I thought I would buy a few new guns for the season. These work great. My guys are rough on equipment so I will see how these work out. Not a bad price. Shipped very well.

Great tool for the price
This is a great roofing gun for the price, a little front heavy but built to last.
