From the Manufacturer
The NT50AE2 is the ideal 18-gauge finish nailers for trim work, furniture and other finish applications. It accepts 5/8- to 2-inch, 18-gauge fasteners. The new selective actuation switch lets the user easily select bump fire actuation for quick brad nailing when precise placement is not required. By simply flipping the switch, the user transitions to sequential fire for specific nail placement. At only 2.2 pounds this nailer is well-balanced and lightweight to make finish work a breeze. The elastomer grip adds comfort while preventing slippage. The visual nail reload indicator located on the magazine alerts the user when nail quantities are low so that blank drives are avoided. The NT50AE2 features a tool-less, easy-to-clear nose for quick and simple nail extraction should a nail jam during use. It has been engineered with the safety behind the narrow nosepiece and a short center height to allow for nail placement in hard to reach areas and into tight corners. A simple turn of the depth of drive dial allows the user to easily adjust the drive depth, accommodating woods of varying density for a professional finish every time. The new no-mar tip on the nose protects the work piece from markings. An easy to use 360 degree adjustable exhaust port keeps dust, debris and oil off the finish project.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Tool, December 10, 2006

By	Josephine J. Willard "Joanne" (El Paso, TX USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is one of the best tools I have ever had. Operates flawlessly every time. I use Bostich nails/brads because they are easier to find (all sizes up to 2") and the nailer works perfectly. The "height" adjustment is easy. The "jam release" mechanism is great - but the tool has never jammed. Excellent Product! James Willard

5.0 out of 5 stars So far so EXCELLENT!, September 20, 2006

By	Tim Taylor "Buy more tools" (Northeast US) - See all my reviews

The price was more than right. This is an excellent deal. I used Milwaukee brads for it, and no jams so far. It would be nice if it had a better tip on it though. Comparing price and value with other brands, I would buy this one again. Up until 6 months ago I never knew Hitachi made good tools. Hitachi is my preferred brand for pneumatic right now. The only guns I probably wouldnt buy are their framing nailers, only because the PC is so much cheaper and does the job so well. Buy this gun, you can't go wrong. Along with the tip, the thing that really puzzles me is, I can go buy a $20 no name gun kit, and IT INCLUDES OIL IN THE CASE! (not to mention a couple thousand nails) Here I buy a Hitachi, and not a drop. How about including a small bottle of oil guys? The fifty cents it would cost the company would be well worth it to build greater brand loyalty.
