Default Bostitch Nailgun SB-1850BN (air at trigger, does not cycle)

This thing has less than 20 hours and looks brand new (passed
warranty). I contacted Stanley/Bostitch and replaced just about every
seal this thing has, including the trigger valve. Using 110psi, I
press the trigger and air comes out of the trigger but the gun does
not fire (cycle). I'm not about to send this to be repaired since I've
seen these refurbished for around $50. Any ideas? When I put it away
last July, it worked.



I do not mean to insult but do you have the correct nails?

Also try turning down the pressure a bit. The manual for that model says:

quote
OPERATING PRESSU
70 to 100 p.s.i.g. (4.9 to 7.0 kg/cm2). Select the operating pressure within
this range for
best fastener performance.
DO NOT EXCEED THIS RECOMMENDED OPERATING PRESSURE.
