Pneumatic 15° 2-1/2" Coil Siding Nailer | PCN65

Great siding gun for the price. In the past, i did a lot of siding, worked for a few companies, usually always using the higher end guns (Makita, $400-$500). But always had problems with the higher end ones, given, they were worked a lot harder & older, but would double fire, or nail would get stuck, which seemed to always happen when it was 102 degrees out and on a 30' ladder. Anyway, I just do projects here and there now, so didn't need a real high dollar gun, so ordered this with a box of the Freeman 2 inch coil nails. Have only had a chance to do one job, but it worked flawlessly, not a single problem, it almost seemed strange to do an entire job without having some sort of problem with the nail gun, but this one just flat out worked. We'll see how it's doin in a year, and after a lil more abuse, but for the money, seems to be a good gun. ***UPDATE 09/27/17**** Have put a little under a case of nails through this gun, oiled before every use, and now it's leaking air terribly, all my research leads me to that there is an O-ring (or O-rings) going bad. So now I have to Order a $35 kit, and hopefully I can get this gun taken apart and O-rings replaced, and hopefully that fixes the problem. Concerning that I haven't even been through a case/box of nails and this gun is out of service. Hoping I don't end up kicking myself for not buying a higher quality gun. ***UPDATE 02/10/18*** Ordered the O-ring kit, and started taking apart the gun, there was a large square ring on the back of the gun that had come loose and not seated properly. I lubed and adjusted it in back into position, and just like that, the gun started working again. I have to admit, i wasn't oiling it before every use. Since then, I bought some Marvel Mystery Oil for air tools, and have been using it religiously, and haven't had a single problem since. Just ordered another case of nails, Hitachi this time, as the Freeman seem to leave a lot of wire with the nails on the siding. Overall, i'm happy with the Siding Gun. Update 01/31/2019 One last update. These guns are way underrated. I am still using the same gun I bought a few years ago. I have a PT Siding company, and I use probably 5-7 cases of nails a year(think there's roughly 2400 nails per case). My original gun is still firing away, and I have since bought another for a back-up for when/if my original craps out. So my honest opinion is this gun is a great buy, it takes a beating day in and day out for about 6-8 months out of the year, and i'm not easy on it. I highly recommend this gun for siding.

Had to purchase on the fly due to my 15 year old duofast breaking and no part available. Performs good, trigger safety is wonky, had to modify due to poor design. Put rubber spacer in trigger due to not fully engaging when pressing against siding.

So, I own at least 10 nail guns - from trim to roofing nailers. I was in need of a new coil siding nailer after losing my Hitachi. Yet, I was hesitant to spend $350 again for a job I don't do often. So I come across this at 60% of the price. My first impression of this gun was mixed. It had better features than the Hitachi and Dewalt I have used such as bump fire, rafter hooks, adjustable exhaust, and single or automatic firing. That is, most of the professional brands don't include these or have an awkward handicap that prevents you from using them - like a fixed hook, trigger installations, and locked exhaust. However, it is apparent that this gun isn't made for continuous daily use when you look at the trigger, coil gaurd, and depth adjustment. The trigger is probably the weakest and cheapest one I have ever used. The coil guard won't survive a hard fall. The depth adjustable is hard to use. It also isn't as balanced as most other nailers and is significantly larger in size. As to how well it performs, well I am more than satisfied. It shoots nails just as well as the Makita, Hitachi, and Dewalt siding nailers I have used. From fiber cement to hardwood. The results are great - most of the time. The biggest issue is that this gun is a lot more prone to double firing than most. Double firing is a significant issue. It can crack your fiber cement or split your hard wood. This gun is very prone to double fire when you are using smaller compressors. To better explain, you shouldn't be using pancake compressors or compact low cfm (>5cfm@90) anyway. Coil and roofing jailers use significantly more air due to the nature of their work as siding and shingles use a lot more nails per area. Yet, most people and professionals don't care. So this if for you pancake users out there - don't buy this gun or you will have trouble. This gun will double fire when you are are driving a lot of nails and your compressor does not have enough air to keep up with the demand. Weird huh? Most guns don't fire or they dry fire when the pressure is too low or their isn't enough air (volume) to meet the demand. I discovered this after trying it out on all 5 of my compressors - pancakes, engine driven 6 gallon, 25 gallon, and 60 gallon. No surprise, it double fired often on my pancakes and engine driven but never once double fired on the 25 or 60 gallon. From there on out, I have only used in on my 25 gallon and rarely double fired. As far as the jamming, all coil nailers do it. It is just the nature of this mechanism. Wire fasteners bind and adhesive builds up. This gun jammed just as often as all the others I have used. Overall, I would recommend this gun to most consumers and those professionals who do siding on the small scale like repairs or touch ups.

This tool is certainly budget priced, more recognizable tool brand version are 2X or more the cost of this nailer. Buying this nailer was going to cost me about the same as renting a commercial tool for the week, so I decided I'd chance it. I'm glad I did. I fired almost 600 nails with it, not a single jam. nails were consistently countersunk properly, with the only nails needing attention is a few times when I was getting fatigued and limp wristed it a bit. I have a lot of different nailers, and have definitely ran into some finicky ones, but this has been very pleasant to use. Oil it before each use (I give another couple drops of oil before putting it away when done too), keep your air pressure consistent, and use good quality nails, it should work fine for you. *EDIT* 6 months later I needed to hang some OSB sheathing in my carport and pulled this nailer back out. another 500 nails driven with not a single problem. this nailer is one of the best quality, bargain priced tools I've ever purchased. Recommended without reservations.

Worked fine for at home. Had a few double hits because I'm using a Pancake compressor. Otherwise, for occasional use, you can't beat the price point.

cubrio mis espectativas, buen producto, buenos materiales, excelente potencia al clavar, lo recomiendo al 100, facil de utilizar, me gusto, gracias, ademas de manejar promociones que es la mejor manera de vender y comprar, por la razon de ofrecer buen producto y a buen precio.

I am very impressed with this gun . No issues

El precio me Agradó pero NO clava a fondo la Mayoría de los clavos ni que no traiga la función de disparar un clavo a la vez

The nailer feels flimsy and delicate but did it's job OK. It misfired every 20-30 nails, sometimes requiring to open and set the nails again. It was not perfect, but for the price could be tolerated. After driving about 450 1.25 inch nails into cedar shingles, a gush of air came out from the front where the nails come out and the piston pushing the nails remained stuck in the out position as shown in the picture. It could no longer be used. I returned it for a refund and purchased a Bostitch instead.
