DEWALT D51256K 1-1/4-Inch to 2-1/2-Inch 16-Gauge Finish Nailer

Product Description:

Two things set this tool apart from its classmates: the large nail capacity and the rear-loading magazine that lets you lock and load, or load and lock. The tool is light, comfortable, and sturdy, features DeWalt's ingenious tool-free jam-clearing mechanism, and offers a fantastic line of sight. The sliding depth adjustment is further evidence of DeWalt's creative problem-solving abilities. Unlock it with your index finger, slide the adjustment with your other hand, and you're ready to fire. This model has a nice plus in the 360-degree swivel exhaust cap. Great pad, too--it didn't mar anything to which we introduced it. Finally, and this may not seem like a big deal, but in everyday use you're going to love the reversible belt/rafter hook. --Kris Jensen-Van Heste

major disappointment2008-01-06
I bought this to supplement my 15 gauge nailer. I would shoot doubles repeatedly from the start. I tried a different brand of 16 gauge nails, and different lengths too, didn't matter. I took it back and they sent it in for repair. A few weeks later the dealer called and said my gun was back. We took it in the back and fired it four times. Three of them were doubles. Long story short I was finally able to make it work by removing the nose piece and filing it down so as to reduce the size of the nose opening. It was so large it could pass two 16 gauge nails easily. I will not purchase another!
Great Trim Nailer!2006-09-25
I own my own contracting company and use this gun in the field. I must say, it is a great gun. I previously have used Porter Cable and that was a great product also. Several great things about the DeWalt. 1. It has a tool belt clip so you place it at easy acess when putting up trim. 2. It also has a multi positon exhuast head, so no more dust in the face.3. Its lightweight and also has a bump trigger. Great for driving multiple nails quickly. 4. Great line of sight for intricate wood work. Only down fall is the loading mechanism. If you load 3 clips of nails, the last clip has be pulled down past the lock. In time it may slide easier with a little wear, but brand new, its a little tight on the clips.
Good reliable tool2006-08-01
I bought this gun to build a cedar fence. I have morticed all ballusters into the rails, and using the gun to pin all the joints. Over 1,000 fires already, and not one problem.

Right out of the box this nailer has worked great..
bob the builder2004-02-09
i have owned this nailer since it was first introduced. i've loved it since the moment i started using it. i have the angled and brad nailers as well. i have my own remodeling business and we're constantly using these nailers. i've never had any misfires or jamming issues. i would have to say that the top notch detail to this gun is that they all come with belt hooks. i'd say that dewalt has a niche with that one idea alone.
