Great nailer, I haven't had a single problem with it so far. The pic is of the old model. The one I received is in fact the newer model (same model number) with the makita teal-bluish color rubber inlays. Works great.

Buy any other gun, but do not waste your money on this one. I did use it for about 3 months and I was completly dissappointed. It jamed often and was unable to drive 2" nails into oak at pressure about 120psi. Instead, leaves a nail out and punch another hole next to that nail. If you work with a stain grade materials...get better gun.

Nice Package

Nice nailer. It is quite an upgrade from my 1 1/2 in CH. They even included safety glasses in a nice case.

br /But the functionality is great. Well balanced in your hand, and not too heavy.

1. jam at least twice for the period that i used it ( shooting less than 200 brats )
br /2. stop working after using it for less than a week
br /3. made in China
br /4. Since it came with the makita compressor i can't return for refund. So i returned it to amazon for replacement. Amazon refuse to replace it.
br /5. the nailer doesn't deserve a star. However i have to give it one so that amazon will publish my review
