Uhh... Did you play DOOM / QUAKE before? ( Or still have the game in your computer?! [emoji16][emoji16]) and, do you like to use the nail gun to nail down your enemies?!

The nail gun is an air gun, right?

I heard that before, once you remove the safe of the gun, you can shoot it without pushing it to the surface you want to nail....

If so, it will turn into a multi shot, full auto pistol?! Just like a battery driven airsoft but use a power cord and shoots different calibers of nails?!

It looks more dangerous than the sub-500 air guns.... [emoji16]

Can be air, electric or blanks. All you need to do is pull back the safety collar that you depress onto the wood.

We were re doing a roof at my uncles, and he would just pull it back and start shooting at squirrels in the trees.

Ive shot cleaning rods out of 22's using nail blanks.

People probably been shooting stuff around work sites with pneumatic nail guns, way before doom came out.

Please do not shoot at animals with a nail gun.

Cruelty to animals is a Criminal Code offense.

Sticking a nail into a squirrel or anything living is nothing less than cruelty to animals.

It is a charge I would lay in a heart-beat!

It will only shoot a few feets away (well the ones I have anyways). It's more of a pneumatic hammer. You'll never get 10 yard range, so accuracy will be non-existent.
The air isn't shooting the nail out of the gun but pushing a hammer that in return will be pushing the nail in the wood (or air if you're holding the safety switch).
Kinda same way the Daisy Model 179 works.

Nail Guns work like paintball guns/markers



Daryl I don't think he can shot anything with it it has the lastic of a 400 fps bowling ball. so if ever he would it would be the luckiest shot ever.

and where I live if squirrels or any other animals come to my house to damage it I can shot track or kill it, but I live in the woods literally.
anyone who has been at my house knows this to be true.

In a previous life I had used lego to make a magazine to feed pennies into a small pneumatic nail gun, if they hit edge-on it worked pretty well:

Funny that you mention Doom and Quake. I just had an argument with a colleague which franchise had a better gun play. I absolutely love the nailgun in any game that has it. lol

I think the penny shooting nail gun alone is well worth it!
Any one else had one of the small plastic disk shooting guns as a kid? They looked like a Mauser broomhandle from outerspace.
You could put pennies (but dimes worked better but were a lot more expensive when lost).

Yup, I even had a TMNT pizza thrower. Was great till my cousins used it against me. Damn dad getting the larger hopper for it LOL.

Step father just got 3 new nailers from a yardsale.. I bet could convert it to use washers. Since when pennies were around you had tones lying around because hatted carrying them. Now that nobody use them, trying to find pennies are hard.
