Who has had good experience with framing nailer.
I am not going to build a house, just a shed and screen room.
Also all around house repairs.


No one's mentioned Senco, which surprises me. Seems to me
Senco/Hitachi/Bostich have been the kings of the framers for some
time. I have a Senco SN65 (full round head) and like it a lot. I don't
know that Senco makes that any more. They redefined their line a
couple of years ago. I think the FramePro (not sure if there's a
number) is the modern equivalent.

Might as well get a full round head nailer, even though the nails are
more expensive (collated) and only about half as many on a strip. More
and more building codes will require them. Might as well get in on the
ground floor. Most hobbyists don't buy two framers in their life.
