Harbor Freight framing nailer

[Tororider]

Anybody have or used the Harbor Freight 10 gauge framing nailer? It is on sale for $49.99. I don't do a whole lot of nailing, but thought this might speed up what I do.

They also have a nailer/stapler combo for I think $17 dollars.

Man I have to get over to the sidewalk sale!

I do not have that particular one, I have their flooring nailer, finish nailer, stapler, brad nailer. I have been very pleased with them, and if they all broke today, I would pitch them and go by another just like them.

I have a Bostich Framing Nailer, and I sure do like using it when sticking stuff together.

It's not the best, but it's worth 50 bucks for occasional use. I have one I leave out at some rural land, but I do prefer my PC nailer which I keep at my house.

I paid $89 for mine when I made my deck 2 summers ago. It worked well, I only had 1 issue, the pin that holds the trigger in place kept working out so I put a big dob of hot glue on in and it worked just fine.

I ended up getting the brad nailer/stapler combo pack that came with an assortment of staples and brads for $11.99, normally $49.99. I don't do much so I figure I can borrow a bigger nailer if I need to and this would be great for little things around the house. Can't go wrong with the price either.

I bought the brad nailer/stapler. It works ok . On mine I have to pull the trigger 2 x to get it to shoot a nail/ staple. It was like this new

I have this as well, seems to do a better job if you run it at 100psi.

I have a few HF nailers. The best is the 28 degree framing nailer - I've shot about 5000 nails and it pretty much never mis-fires. I have the concrete T-nailer and it seems similarly dependable although I've only made a few hundred shots. I have the brad/staple gun from Homier and it is pretty good but not as dependable as the big guns. The small guns seem more sensitive to lubrication where the return cycle will not pick up a new nail.
