I was mentioning it to a friend and was wondering do they have any numbers on how many nails it can shoot per charge? I tried peaking around the interwebs and can’t find anything really.
I looked also but couldn’t find anything.
That was my first question, but never found an answer. Gator888 could probably provide some insight.
Good question. I’m kind of mad I don’t have more of a use for this….I can’t justify buying it lol

Story of my life bro 😆 There are lots of tools I look at and say “Damn, I wish I needed that”
I wish I could buy it. I would put it to very good use.

Yeah, I do that all of the time. It kind of bugs me because I’m always thinking “What could I buy for my work to make my job easier?”…..And I’m honestly starting to run out of tools that I really need.
That’s sad. lol
I wish it wasn’t as expensive. It would be easier to justify if the bare tool was like 200 bucks and the kit was 300-350. I did end up seeing a review and the guy got over 800 on a 4.0 xr pack that’s pretty impressive. I wish Milwaukee would come out with something similar but Milwaukee does not have all the rough carpentry tools like air nailers and table saws.
Can you time share tools?
had a play with one today. AU$900 for the kit here. But a nice tool. They’re saying it is paying itself off in 22 boxes (of 3000 nails). Some guys would go through that in a few weeks ….
CPO has the bare tool for $359.00 and the kit for $469

We are advertising up to 700 3″ nails on 1 charge (4.0Ah Battery). Obviously it depends what type of material you are shooting into.
Dang it why couldn’t big yellow have this out back when I needed a cordless nail gun. It’s way more practical than the Paslode the only thing I wonder is how the Dewalt deals with dense woods like a LVL. I don’t see Milwaukee releasing a tool like that. Milwaukee is kinda weird they make routers but don’t sell table saws, or they sell a miter saw, but don’t sell the nail guns to fasten the items. They have the TTI portfolio to work from it could be that stores don’t want a ton of SKU’s either. You can’t find many bench top tools in local home depot or lowes.
that’s awesome, my xrp 18g nailer doesn’t get anywhere near that.Gatorb888 wrote:

Do you know when dewalt is releasing a 20v 16 gauge nailer?
I don’t know and haven’t heard anything, but I only know about new products 6 months out from launch typically.
I typically get around 600 3″ nails on my 3.0 battery.
HEY! Gator, Dewalt rep, Does the new 2 speed gun have upgrades return springs? i have 2 guns here wich have only fired about 30,000 nails each with broken return springs, i am awaiting replacement springs but they are on backorder (not supprising)
The wife asked my to hang some pictures on the wall, so i used it as an excuse to go out and buy this framing nailer. Hey never know how long u are going to want those pictures up there for.

I have not heard of upgraded return springs but they usually don’t clue us sales guys into things like that. Sorry about the problem you’re having. I hope customer service has taken care of you. The gun is supposed to last about 55K shots before requiring any maintenance.
I got to play with this thing for the first time at Dan’s on Friday and I have to admit I was impressed. The gun was well balanced, recovered fairly quick, and didn’t weigh a ton either.
I have to say this nail gun is very nice. I have only run about 200 nails through it but it is impressive. So much so I gave my son my Paslode.
I still like Paslode gun don’t get me wrong. It’s just that Dewalt seems really nice on top of the fact you don’t need fuel cells, and you don’t have the smell or noise that goes along with the Paslode Impulse nailer. Just sucks do deal with the cost and hassle of having fuels around when you want to do a job The Dewalt does away with all of those hassles from the gas powered guns. I wonder if we will see a coil framing nailer next from Dewalt.
Can’t wait to get my hands on one there just a bit out of my price range right now:/
