The box is decent too, with a fair bit of spare room and not a stupid blow moulded case like cheap tools/all older tools came with. This HiKOKI gas nailer is the successor to the Hitachi NR90GC2 Nailgun and features a high visibility magazine and easy access fuel cell chamber.

I'm considering the purchase of a Hitachi finishing nailer too, I shan't even look for at other brands. Some reviews say the battery is awkward but I don't really have a problem, yes the pasalode is an easier battery load but that's about it! The HiKOKI (formerly known as Hitachi) NR90GC2/J8 cordless gas nail gun is a fantastic alternative to the Paslode IM350 nailgun.Framing is not something I usually do so almost laughed at the hanging hook at first, but it quickly proved to be a great feature and the perfect size, it can easily be swung out of the way in either direction (it can also be switched to the other side for left handed users. The NR90GC2/J8 features a longer trigger stroke for safer use and a reduction in misfires, dry firing lockout again to help prevent accidental nail fire and a soft grip handle for improved control and reduce user fatigue. Have fired around 4000 nails so far and only two misfires, both of which where related to the paper on the nails and not the gun, a quick push on the loader and it's back in action.

The tool does the job easily and the depth can be adjusted, which is great for different applications. It is fitted with a quick load rear access magazine and a two action nail feed; simply drop in the nails and pull back the feeder. As if this wasn't enough the Hitachi NR90GC2/J8 also has an easy access fuel cell chamber and is amazingly easy to clean, so you can spend less time looking after your gun and more time using it.You can calculate your postage charge for Hitachi NR90GC2 Cordless Gas Framing Nail Gun before you checkout. Li-ion batteries, for instance, and gives you mains power without the hassle of cords, as well as extra safety with no trailing leads. We will exchange or refund within the first 30 days if a manufacturers fault is found with this product. I have used Hitachi and paslode gas nailers and dewalt battery nailer, this far exceeds them all, very little kick back, good nail penetration unlike dewalt. I had a GT90CH for 5 years as my main gun - more powerful than the equivalent (at the time) Paslode IM90 - and today I still have two Rawl WW90CH guns (one fairly new, the other a bit of a nail).
