Customer Rating:      Summary: Flawless performance Comment: I bought this siding gun after reading everything I could. Ablolutely no surprises! We've sided 2 homes so far without a hitch.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Awsome siding nailer Comment: This gun rocks. I bought it based on a few reviews I read and it far exceeded what I expected. All the features make it a tool I will not part with ever.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great gun, but go back the toothed nose as standard! Comment: I've owned this gun for a couple of years now and honestly, I couldn't ask for a better gun. Well, I could but I doubt I'd get it. This gun is well balanced and a pleasure to use, even all day long. I've used it to side my house (cedar clapboard) and the only problems I've had with it were my fault.
Like another reviewer, I got a gun with the round tip and not like what is (still) pictured. I contacted Makita and they told me that I'd have to talk to the people from where I purchased.
I contacted Amazon.
I have to say that my experience with Amazon's CS (to this point) has been top notch. I explained my problem with the CS rep and she was very understanding and helpful, and well, it must have been my lucky day because as fate would have it, the Makita rep was supposed to be there that day. She (the CS rep) said that she'd call me back and she actually did.
I caught a break, I got my tip for free and like the other reviewer, I too had to take the gun apart to replace the tip. Not exactly the thing you want to be doing before even firing one coil through.
Anyway, the gun is great, the depth setting is easy and is very consistent. I like the dual (and locking) trigger too. I can't say this is the best gun out there at any price since it's the only coil siding nailer I've used, BUT... if being the best means performing flawlessly, then this gun IS the best... at any price.
It's a five star performer for sure, but Makita needs to get on the ball with this one and put the non-round nose back on there as the regular tip. For that aspect alone I'd knock off a star... maybe two.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great Tool Comment: Have owned this gun for a few years and it always produces on the job. It is light and well balanced and it hardly ever misfires or jams. If you are doing cedar shingles or building fences, this gun is a great choice.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great Nailer Comment: I replaced the wood siding on my house and workshop with cement fiberboard. This nailer really helped make the job go smoother. It is a little inconsistent as far as depth of drive so I just underdrove a hair on purpose and hammered flush, just so I didn't overdrive the nails. This nailer never jammed once. Very well built and light. I would definitely recommend it to anyone doing any siding work, cement fiberboard or wood. Another great tool by Makita.

The non-slipping nose on this siding coil nailer is the ideal shape for diagonal nailing. No more scratches, thanks to the tools non-marring nose adapter. The built-in air filter system prevents debris from entering the tool, extending tool life and reducing down time. The 9 quick-dial depth adjustment settings ( in increments of 1/16in.) give you precise control of nail depth. Operating PSI: 65 - 1020, Fastners Used: Siding Nails, Fastner Sizes (in.): 1 1/4 - 2 1/2, Adjustable Depth Contol: Yes, Coil or Strip: Coil, Inlet Size (in.): 1/4, Min. Hose Size (in.): 3/8, Case Included: Yes, Tool Length (in.): 5, Tool Weight (lbs.): 13 1/6
