y'know what? i really cant understand what all the fuss is about nail guns...I own 2, both hitachi gas nailers, a first and second fix, and the are (for me at least ) a real boon..(I have an allergic arthritis, and repetative movements as in repeated nailing "provokes" it...which is not wise :shock: ) Now these tools ARE , or can be, highly dangerous i would agree but when you consider it these accidents that have been posted from time to time on here are down to operator stupidity, the answer is simple...treat them at ALL times for what they in fact are ...FIREARMS, so as soon as you go to put it down...eject the battery, If it jams, eject the battery FIRST, if you leave it for a moment...eject the battery and take it with you.........EJECT THE DAMN battery. In other words...not to put too fine a point on it ....EJECT THE BATTERY.
If you had a hand gun you would unload it at every needful point...like cleaning and un-jamming wouldn't you????????? :shock: You would unload it before putting it away....wouldn't you???????
then when using...like erm...common sense...no one in line of fire if you happen to hit the thin pannel rather than the bearer you were aiming for like when putting up a fence??? your neighbour will be LESS than impressed if you nail his missus/dog/kids/ beer glass to the wall 20 foot away......
