any observations/constructive comments/experiences?

I use a Lidl nail gun on the farm for quick fix jobs. On the bad side T
nails are fairly weak and you need more than you would of round wire nails.
Staples are stronger and prevent twisting. If you look at commercial use of
nail guns for things like fencing and other outdoor work staples are used
in preference to nails.

Most of my jobs are things like attaching cladding or repairing old fences
and gates. Works fine for that. I can power the gun off the tractor and
it's light to carry around.

Jobs that need strength are done with framing nailers and coil nailers
using annular nails. Pallets for example are often annular nailed.

You'd need a different nail gun for that sort of use.
