Default 1" nails in a gun made for 1 1/4" to 2 1/2"?

Has anyone reading this ever tried 1" nails in a pneumatic gun with a 1
1/4" minimum size nail? If so did it work, jam, or damage the gun?

More specific, I want to use 1" inch nail in a Hitachi NT65MA4 15 gauge
gun.

Probably little danger in trying such a short fat nail. Cut down the
air pressure to something like 35 PSI and increase slowly to get the
depth you want.
Hopefully someone will send this post to you in a news reader, as this
is a (Horrors!) Google Group post.
