agreed, i was more just demonstrating the gun operation, thanks for watching

We use yellow mostly on the job site I never even seen green

Green was for super thin metal block or concrete usually block yellow on concrete red on steel

That’s old school! Nice

That’s the best way, I actually rarely use this gun any more. I prefer to drill and use wedge anchors.

thank you! wish I had some concrete to demo this on when we were filming, would have been a bit better demonstration

Si no las tienen en su ferretería (home depot, lowes..ect) puede ordenarla en línea. Es la Hilti DX2.

I think it just gives you more options. Concrete can either be very hard if it’s old or very soft when is new. Also depends on its strength, so having the ability to adjust your tool would be nice.

cool! you can fire it if you pull back the nose with your fingers, it would probably damage the lock but it wouldn't wreck it to the point of being able to open it. but you could say that it did. A good example of a movie where they over embellished what a nail gun can do is one of the lethal weapon movies. Murdok shoots a nail gun at an intruder. it looked cool but it wasn't accurate to how it actually works.

@@hammerandhome Funny I just wrote the line where she shot it into the lock at the same exact moment that my tablet notified me of your message. Thank you for your reply. I made sure that I stated that it was the red loads not the yellow or green which are weaker from what I understand. Also mentioning that the nails have washers on them which may be would have destroyed the lock a little bit more I'm hoping are I used to have one of these things, Somebody had left it behind and I had kept it though I had nothing to load it with and wasn't sure what to do with it I wound up selling it on eBay or marketplace or something this was years ago probably not marketplace. Probably craigslist. Anyway I may write you back at some point in time and ask you other Tech questions I have a couple of other people I'm asking as well good to get a few opinions if you don't mind.

@@truthmatters4654 of course! would love to hear how it's going! although fyi sometimes I can take a little long to answer when I'm deep into a construction project. best of luck with it!

@@truthmatters4654 that’s awesome, yeah if you have any questions I’m always trying to keep up with the comments. Cheers

Our mic hates loud tools! It cuts out. So, sorry, no gun audio on this.

It sounds just as loud as a hand gun and even louder if you’re inside a building framing studs/ tracks, you’re required to say “ fire in the hole” every time you shoot it

Its loud, especially since its most likely fired in a confined space. First time i saw one fired i jumped a bit even with ear protection

yes. It sure looks identical to the PT-27 from Simpson.

They seem to nail wood to concrete pretty well, at least for old vacant housing

How old is old and how new is new?

depends on where you are buying from.

$200US more or less

Just bought one brand new from home depot $280

It’s just a saying

@@hammerandhome No it isn't. I've never heard anyone in all of history refer to a framing tool as violent. Dangerous with improper use, sure.

yeah its all I had for the demo.

Actually the more solid the concrete the more likely it is to shatter
