For you guys that use air, this is as good as it gets! I've been doing this for more than thirty years,and this is the best nailer on the market. Period. Almost no jams, nails bury perfectly, almost no breakage. My company uses them exclusively now.
Best roofer out there

I have owned my Max roofer for 3 years now. The thing is bullet proof. I have dropped it off of roofs, picked it back up and it keeps on working. It once landed on its nose and even fired a nail when it landed and it worked perfectly when I picked it up. The siding nose is great. I have done 3 houses with it now and it is a big time saver. It does get a little heavy, but not uncomfortable. I own a total of 4 Max guns and would recommend any of them.
There's Max.......then the others

After roofing for 15 years and going through countless nailers this is by far the tuffest,longest lasting gun on the market.Other guns Ive owned:
br /1.Makita (good for a year than worthless)
br /2.Bostitch (good for maybe two...then worthless)
br /3.Hitachi (same)
br /4.Paslode (just worthless)
br / Ive used:
br /1.Senco
br /2.Porter Cable
br /3.Duo-fast.....All worthless.
br / Though the above guns would probably be good enough for the homeowner doing his own roof, I wouldnt recommend them for the daily wear and abuse the professional puts on them.Makita and Hitachi are apealing with thier lightwieght design but fail to be consistent with driving flush nails (without cranking the air compressor up to 145 psi) after about a year of use, even with new o-rings and drivers. Even after four years of service with Max I rarely have to hit a high nail. Although this nailer can handle thousands of squares and drops off the roof without losing its driving power some of the parts tend to wear easily, mostly in the feeder area.This is a minor issue. I judge these guns on how often I have to bust out my hammer and how often I have to clear jams. Max wins on both counts.

This roofing nailer is one of the best on the market. It also has a vinyl siding attachment available. I used this to do the siding on my house. Cut install time almost in half. I am a superintendant for a commercial contractor and would never hesitate to buy any tool manufactured by Max Tools.
