Correct. This is not an air pressure problem.
There are two types of triggers - restrictive/single fire (one nail
per pull of the trigger, no matter what the nailer does) and
bounce/bottom fire (one nail per depression of the nose safety as long
as the trigger is held).
Framing nailers are not designed for precision nail placement, just
close enough. There are two choices:
a) get the single-fire trigger - it won't slow you down that much, but
the trigger finger will get more exercise;
b) learn how to bounce-fire the nailer - do not contact the wood
surface before nailing. Hold the trigger closed and push the nailer
toward the area to be nailed from a few inches out. Pull it back after
the nail is discharged. Release the trigger if another nail is not
desired immediately in the same area.
