Metabo HPT Framing Nailer, 21° Plastic Collated 2-3.5in, NR90AES1

I am thrilled that I got this framing nailer. I built a 10 x 12 shed by myself with plans from scratch (No kit) and this worked flawlessly. I saved a ton of money building the shed myself instead of hiring it out. I haven't built a shed in over 35 years and as tiring as it was, it was very satisfying doing it myself. I built it 16" on center and built my own trusses. I couldn't have done it without this nailer. I never had a jam or miss fire. Definitely a great buy.

This Nailgun exceed our expectations. My son is doing some remodeling on my home and had mentioned purchasing a Hitachi Nailgun (now made by Metabo) based on recommendations made by contractor friends of his who still use them daily. He told me that he was familiar with that particular Nailgun as he had used it before but couldn't remember the model number. Minimal research on my part quickly determined the Nailguns durability and it's performance is beyond question as evinced by the many accolades it has received over the years. As my son is doing the remodeling work per gratis, I felt a good start on "tokens of appreciation" would be to purchase a good nailgun for him to use (and keep). We had both owned Nailgun kits before made by another manufacturer and neither of us were pleased with them. I am a price-conscious shopper, but in this particular case it was less of a factor for obvious reasons After doing a substantial amount of research, I was debating between purchasing the older style Hitachi Nailgun (NR83A5 now branded Metabo) and this newer model Nailer offered by Metabo. At the end of the day I decided to purchase this newer model, thinking that if my son did not like it, I would just keep it and then purchase him the older style for him to use. I figured he couldn't lose either way and if this newer style, lighter Nailgun worked as well as the reviews said it would, he would be pleasantly surprised. I made the final decision based on the positive customer reviews I had read and the product specifications, including the weight. The substantially lower price factored in but not as much as it might have under different circumstances. I knew I would be using the Nailer on occasion and liked the idea that it was lighter, something that appealed to me after owning a different brand Nailgun that was much heavier and somewhat cumbersome. I also knew my son would be doing considerable overhead framing work at my home during the remodeling process with whatever Nailer I purchased and if the unit worked well, he would certainly appreciate the lighter Nailgun.. After talking it over with him and how it would play out if for some reason he was unsatisfied with the newer model Nailer, I ordered this nailer. We are both very pleased that I did! It has performed flawlessly. He has put over 2,000 nails through the gun without a single misfire or jam. I made note of the one complaint about the hanger that comes on the Nailgun being "too wide" to be of much use and ordered the $15 aftermarket kit that easily replaces it. While I am sure I would not have regretted purchasing the older style gun, I am glad that I got the newer model for him to use on my project. It is easier to maneuver in tight places and obviously easier to hold over his head constantly (at times). I don't normally write reviews, but figure this product was worth the time it took to let you know my experience.

Great framing gun, good value. Very light and has the adjustable modes very convenient and safe to switch. No rafter hook anywhere and thats a bummer. Even so this is my second one because I needed two and this has been my pick for about 15 years now.

This gun is AWESOME!!! No misfires ! Highly recommend!

First time using a framing nailer. I’m framing a shed and had been doing a few sections at a time and had been hammering nails in by hand. I finally caved in and purchased this nailer. It has helped out immensely with my project. A started and finished one complex wall over a weekend and another wall section in a single evening. I was taking days doing everything by hand. I’ve shot through about 500 nails and have not had a single jam. It’s a very powerful nailer and built to last. It’s a bit larger than expected, but has been easy to use. It does take some time to get used to using this beast of a nailer having only used small nailers and staplers before. Only complaint for this nailer is that it would have been nice to come with a rafter hook and nose cap. Just a couple cheap pieces of material that really should be standard in the box.

Nice light weight, ill be putting it to work tomorrow. I do wish it came with a rafter hook also wish the nail pusher locked but other than that only time will tell.

Gun worked as described. Great product!

Light for its size, fits the hand well, easily handled, great features and super easy to switch nail modes and adjust the nail strike. The reviews and videos I read and watched, solidified my decision to buy this Metabo HPT Framing gun. After using it I am impressed with its speed and accuracy and after hearing all the comments from former users, I understand why it has been considered a reliable and durable tool. Look forward to many hours and future years of use.

Excellent framing nailer. Has not jammed or miss fired once since I bought it. Reasonably light and agile. Packs a punch when nailing into old hemlock fir.

Still cant seem to get it to work. It won't fire any nails, its set up correctly. Not sure where else to go here? Tried contacting the manufacturer but they are based in America and dont answer. Is there something that we are missing??

As Described

Es un buen producto vale la pena

Best nailer i have ever owned. Never once jammed! Light and heavy duty! Highly recommended.
