Metabo HPT NV90AG Coil Framing Nailer
Score: 82/100Rankings
The Metabo HPT NV90AG(S) is a lightweight pneumatic coil framing nailer designed for siding and light framing applications. It features a side-load magazine for quick reloads and tool-less depth adjustment. The absence of a dry-fire lockout is a notable trade-off for its lightweight design.
The NuMax SFR2190 is a lightweight pneumatic framing nailer designed for DIY homeowners and light hobbyists. It features a magnesium body and tool-free depth adjustment, making it a cost-effective choice for fencing and deck construction. However, it lacks the durability and detailed specs required for heavy commercial framing.
