This is the one.

I had the oportunity to try several 15 guage nailers after deciding that my 16G Porter Cable could not do the job I wanted it.

Don't get me worng. My PC is the best 16G nailer in my arsenal but I needed something more.

I tried the Hitachi 15G, the Senco, and the Bostich.

I then tried the Dewalt and I was hooked. I was ready to buy the Hitachi, but the Dewalt went down to a 1" over the Hitachi 1 1/4" and the balance of the Dewalt just felt better in my hand. I also liked the feel of the trigger, plus the fact that I could access the depth adjustment more readily on the Dewalt over the Hitachi.

I have run about 16 hours of work with the tool so far and I am very happy with it. I run it with oil, since there is no better way to protect the seals and rings. I know that Dewalt advertises that you can run the tool without oil, but do not do it. You will just eat away at the life of the seals and piston rings.

No doubt a winner. Much improved over its previous D51275K.

I bought this nailer 4 months ago and went around and around trying to get nails that worked with it. The angle on Senco DA nails is slightly less than the nails that came with the nailer. I also tried a few after market nails--same deal. Finally I ordered Bostitch DA nails and they are exactly the same as the ones that came with it. Probably they are purchased by DeWalt for the kit. The Senco nails even say that they are for this gun on the package. They shoot 3 or 4 times and jam. Bostitch run great.

This gun is very smooth, it sets the nail just right.

I have used several differant guns professionally and this one is very desireable. If you want to save $20 and get junk that will jam at crunch time buy somthing else. If you want reliable smooth quality get this one....

I bought this nailer used in mint condition on Amazon. Seems to work fine. I am using Porter and Cable 2 1/2" nails and it shoots them well if you don't slam the nail bolt forward. If I slam it the nails seems to wedge in the delivery ramp and don't feed. A minor thing but it took me a minute to figure out why it was only shooting one nail and then stopped. Since then I've used it with no issues.

Bought this to install new hardwood flooring in a rental condo we were renovating and couldn't be happier with my choice. It is easy to use, well-made and I'm certain will last for many, many years to come. I'd never installed hardwood flooring before and after a few test "shots" into some scrap plywood I was successful in laying 120 square feet of 3/4" Maple and 25 square feet of Brazilian Redwood with nary a glitch. Getting the correct angle on the "tongue" of hardwood flooring is really the only skill you need to learn and, once you've got that, it's a breeze and you'll be installing floors that look truly professional.

  • Increase lifespan of equipment
  • Reduce noise levels

Quieted the air compressor down a slight but noticeable amount, should filter much better than the OEM one, possibly increasing pump life. Buy it, you won't be sorry.

Worked flawlessly to lay 600sq/ft of 3/8" solid Brazillian Redwood from BellaWood. Make sure you grab this gun for the hard solid woods as I rented the LHF97125-2 first and it wouldn't push the 20ga staples all the way through.

I used this gun to install about 100 sq feet of Bruce/Armstrong Natural Reflections Oak flooring. It made the install go super smooth with no major issues. Jammed maybe once and it took a few minutes to get a feel for it. Once you get going it is amazing. I highly recommend it.

We are in the construction/residential remodeling business in Florida. Most homes here are built on a concrete slab so we have installed many hardwood floors by gluing them...not fun, but necessary. We recently remodeled a frame home with plywood sub-floors and finally had the opportunity to use staples for the installation, so ordered this tool. What a time saver!! It worked like a charm throughout the entire 2300 sq. foot installation. No glitches, no jamming up of the staples. I just wish there were more wood frame structures down this way! Highly recommended!

Was given this gun to use when another gun stopped working properly. This was during an installation of BR-111 5/16" solid chestnut tongue in groove flooring with an osb underlayment.

The gun was fairly simple to set up to match the profile of the product, took about five minutes at most.

Took more air pressure (77psi vs 62psi) and was louder than the 1838K. Once the pressure was right it knocked in the 1" staples consistently.

The stamped steel safety nosepiece was kinda sharp on the edges so I took a file and dressed a light bevel on it. Always bring this gun into the work from from behind not the top so the safety doesnt leave a scratch on a finished board.

It's a lightweight gun that can be used ALL day.

Used this to put down 700sf of flooring and it worked wonderfully. It did jam up once on the last staple before empty, but other than that no problems. Not too bad for 7500 staples.
