Default Coil Nailers - Nail Compatibility

Hi All,

I am doing some home repair work (quite a bit) and got a cheap used
bostitch rn45b coil nailer for roofing and cedar siding. I know very
little about coil nailers and have never used one. It looks like most
coil nailers are compatible with a certain range of nail lenghts, but
I cannot find any information about what guns will accept what types
of nails?

In general, does a coil nailer accept any coil type nails that are
within the length parameter of the gun? The RN45B says it will accept
up to 1 3/4", so does that mean that I can use any coil nail that is
up to 1 3/4"?

Thanks for your help!
