Our take on the Hitachi NR90AES1M Round Head Framing Nailer, 2" to 3-1/2"

The Metabo HPT NR90AES1M is a pneumatic framing nailer that drives plastic-collated round head nails from 2 to 3-1/2 inches. At 7.5 lbs it is among the lightest tools in its class, and it adds a selective action trigger for switching between contact and sequential fire, tool-free depth adjustment and a sawtooth safety tip. Exterior head bolts let you open the head for clearing jams and servicing with less downtime. It suits framers, deck builders and crews who want a light, serviceable nailer, and it competes with the big-name framing guns on weight and maintenance access rather than on extra electronics.
