$25 Amazon HammerShot: amzn.to/2xk6vEt
One with a silencer and trigger: amzn.to/2Oq1m52
I cover a lot more than just how to use it. Go to 6:25 to skip to the demo.
There are many options and brands but I don't use it that often so the $25 is just fine for me. If you live in Australia, you need to have this tool registered and a license plus training to use it. I'm curious what other countries regulations are.
22 cal loads: amzn.to/2MzwjSJ
Coated Pins: amzn.to/2xgpZus
This tool is used most often to attach wood to concrete or wood to steel but it can be used with other materials. There are many fasteners of various sizes and shapes. Check out the store display to see more. By the way, if you are curious as to the holding strength, good luck getting these nails out of concrete, it's possible but man it's not easy! These are permanent fasteners. Easier to grind it off than pull it out.

Yes, I know it's a long video, so go to 6:25 if you want to skip to the demo. In the first half, I cover safety, how to choose various loads, the difference in nails etc.

I am not scolding you for doing this put please do not use wd40 as a lubricant spray..it is alcohol based spray and will dry up and cause your tool to seize over time. It is meant to loosen seized tools/bolts and then apply a lubricant with a silicone base

Is there a fully automatic version of this with a bump stock

@CrimeDoesNotPay 4 жыл бұрын

Yes, but with a background and cavity check if you live in CA.

@phrostytwitch1603 3 жыл бұрын

If it was fully auto, i don't believe you would need a bump stock, as the bump stock is meant to make a semi-auto weapon "automatic"?

@themexicansensation2698 3 жыл бұрын

Phrosty Twitch nope bump stocks don’t make semi automatic weapons automatic bc you still have to press the trigger every time you want to shoot it it basically just makes you shot very fast. If you only had to press the trigger once to shoot multiple then yes it would be automatic.

I don't recall anymore what caused my father to buy a model similar to this one in the mid-80's. Still works though it's been deep in a box for some decades and needs a good tear down. Even so, I used it earlier today! Maybe after I show it some love it will fully drive with the yellow loads. No matter what, this is so much cheaper and faster than using a hammer drill and tapcons. I really hate them.

Thanks Adam. Just a word about lubricating the gun afterwards; WD-40 is not a lubricant (well, initially it is, but not really) but a solvent. When you spray it on anything it actually dissolves any lubricant that was there. Better to use Tri-Flow for lubrication.

"Any kind of penetrating oil" *sprays WD40* WD40 isn't a lubricant... It's a WATER DISPLACER. It dries up.

Andrew G here we go. It does displace water. It is a lubricant. It dries up as any other.

He said a penetrating oil and WD40 is a penetrating oil. If it stops rust that can serve the same goal as lubrication as rust would increase resistance.

Quick question. What do you think of the MAXtools high pressure nail gun? Would you make the switch if it meant saving time and money? 200-500psi. Can drive nails up to 5.5inches into steel or concrete. The full system with the high pressure gun and compressor is about $2k last i checked. The main benifit over a ramset is it is continuous. No need to reload on every single nail. No need to buy proprietary blanks and nails. It seems overall a better system. What are your thoughts?

Used one of these and after a couple of shots I had police officers swarming my property. That Ramset was loud af. I forgot to call the local police to alert them that I was going to be using a Ramset. My neighbor had identified a suspect she saw shooting a gun. She got egg on her face when it was just me using the Ramset. I apologized to her as I didn’t inform her that I would be using a Ramset. I didn’t use it further, I just used a masonary drill and made holes for concrete anchors which worked out well. PS: Cops just laughed about it and left.
