not a surprise, but nobody has reported on it

the DCN21PL can drive a range of plastic collated fasteners up to 3-1/4 In. and 0.148 In. in diameter into a wide range of materials. Its compact shape, well-balanced design, and easy-to-operate features make it a highly productive tool capable of getting the job done quickly and efficiently. 100% battery power means you can show up and start working without wasting time setting up a compressor or spending money on costly fuel cell replacements.

•  Dual-speed motor optimized to drive a wide range of fasteners for versatility
•  Capable of driving .0148 in. diameter nail into dense wood
•  Tool-free selector switch for sequential or bump-fire modes
•  Tool-free depth adjustment for precise nail placement
•  High-strength aluminum magazine with easy-to-operate pusher latch
•  Stall release lever to reset driver blade in the event of a jam
•  Adjustable rafter hook
•  Easy access to the nosepiece for removing jammed nails
•  Dry fire lock out prevents tool from firing when nails are low
•  21 degree magazine holds up to 49 plastic collated nails

question: what gage size would this be ???

.0148 in. diameter nail

browsing the web;

just found on ACME web site

Thanks for the information looks nice I however have no need for a plastic collated gun. I really like the paper tape guns DCN690/692 and hope to find a newer version of those soon. Would be happy if its nothing more then a large magazine for 2 rows of nails but more power would be great as well.

Hi MidoGrumpy,

.148” is a 10D nail. 

I don´t think you answered the question

what gage is this

or is it 1D gage; I simply don´t know theese values !

9 gauge, according to this site: https://www.thomasnet.com/articles/hardware/screw-nail-sizes

Your question piqued my curiosity on conversions.

4 small parts fell off the tip/ nose of my gun. 
—A spring

—a “pin” with a notch on one end and flat on the other about an inch and a quarter long

—A cylinder About 3/4 long that almost looks like it has a washer on one end that is 

—And some sort of switch or arm with a hook on one side and an oblong hole on the other end

I’ve only had this gun for about a month and I love it but I want to make sure I put the pieces back correctly
