Editorial Review:
Great for light framing--remodeling, especially--this Impulse cordless framing nailer from Paslode lets you avoid the hassle of compressor hoses and compressor noise. The nailer's small, 12-inch-long, lightweight body (6.9 pounds) is easy to hold and, because you're not dragging a hose, doesn't cause as much arm fatigue as other nailers. The nailer drives 2- to 3-1/4-inch nails and has easy-to-adjust drive depth and a high-visibility load magazine. This Paslode nailer uses a patented system that requires both a fuel cell and an included rechargeable battery. Overall, we were impressed with the nailer's performance--it's consistent and there's adequate power for most uses. This model shoots up to 1,200 nails on a single fuel cell and up to 4,000 nails on a full battery charge. There's a convenient belt hanger so you don't have to lay the nailer on the ground or on top of a ladder or wedge it among rafters, and the high-visibility orange makes it difficult to misplace. The kit includes a plastic carrying case, a lightweight charger, and safety goggles. Please note that the nailer does not come with the fuel cell included. --Jonathon Tudor

Buyer Beware of Altitude Let the Buyer Beware: It is not obvious until you receive your Paslode nailer that it is not to be used above 4500 ft (according to technical support) and the box says 5000 ft. We live in Colorado at 7500 feet and of course the gun is Dead ON Arrival - no fault to the gun. And then you can't return it for a refund because it runs on gas ... so let's just say that this was a VERY disappointing purchase from Amazon, who should be able to state very clearly the limitations of every product sold.

Wish I bought it earlier... Just finished a shed project with this nailer... I wished I had bought it earlier! In a previous shed project, I've used a power actuated hammer (the one that fires the .22 blanks) to put hardened (expensive) nails into concrete block (the wall along the side of the shed is a 6' concrete block wall to which I attached the shed). On this project, I was able to use the Paslode nailer to do the same job much more quickly and I used the common framing nails (which drove straight and true thru the 2x4's and into... more info
Great for my project So far this nailer has worked out great.
I'ver never used a framing nailer before, so I have nothing to compare it to. Im currently framing some new partition walls in my basement and I plan on adding some additonal decking outside.
The only thing feature that hasn't lived up to its specs is the amount of nails that it will drive on one fuel cell. It seems like it has only driven a little more than half the amount stated. However, I'm not disappointed because the fuel cells are inexpensive... more info
Simply cannot compete with a compressor driven nailgun Not nearly as fast or powerful as a regular nailgun. It leaves nails sitting proud when firing into engineered wood or old old-growth framing, like we have so much of here in San Francisco. At certain angles (toe nailing)the Paslode is frustratingly hard to fire. Depending on the angle, I sometimes have to press with two hands, which is far from convenient. It sometimes will move the stud that I am trying to nail because I have to press so hard to actuate the thing. I own this gun and the Paslode... more info
