Would this nail gun be sufficient for framing my basement walls? I plan on using 10d 6.35cm framing nails and galvanized ones for nailing to the treated lumber. Or would a Palm Nailer like this work;
clipped head nails are especially not as good for sheathing applications. walls and such where mid nail span shear is more important the clipped heads do not matter as much.
The wall will have a little weight attached to it in the from of a shelf for speakers, receiver, bluray player, etc. Will also be framing out a door as well to kind of give you guys a better idea of my project. I actually found a round head nailer sort of in my budget but can only order online so will have to wait 5-6 days. Sorry to keep asking, I just want to make sure i'm doing it the best I can. Should I wait for the round head nailer or just get the clipped head nailer so I can start sooner.
clipped head nailers are on the way out the door like vhs, I'd wait and get a full head nailer. if you do another project years into the future you might not find clipped head nails available
