There are many reasons to recommend Porter-Cable's well-constructed 2-1/2-inch, 15-gauge angle finish nailer. For starters, there's an easy-to-adjust depth-of-drive wheel that lets you modify the gun's countersink to the task (switching from pine, say, to oak). There's also a quick-release nosepiece, which makes clearing out jams a snap, and a conveniently angled aluminum magazine with a reinforced steel guide rail. (Some users have complained of unintentional double-firing with the standard trigger; if this is a problem [ours worked great, no misfires of any kind], you can always request a restrictive-fire trigger--which requires releasing the trigger between firings--by calling Porter-Cable at 800-321-9443. Porter-Cable will send you one free of charge.) We used this nailer to trim out windows and install a roomful of crown molding; the angled magazine, of course, makes this gun much easier to maneuver than straight-magazine models in these sorts of applications. The DA250AK weighs more than some of its competitors, but it's also significantly less expensive. --Jon Groebner

Have had this gun for four years, and had no problens with it's performance. As a professional woodworker it gets a lot of use. my only qualm is the rubber tip. While it protects the surface you are nailing, it easily slips of the end and after tht is easily lost. Ther are times where taking it off (rough construction) is a bonus, it lives in place the majority of the time. It has never jamed, it drives commandingly and the adjustable depth of drive tip makes it a snap to consistently set the nails when changing from dense hardwoods to softwoods. If you aren't carfful it is possible to double dribe a nail, or drive two nails in advertently. The newer model of this gun has solved this problem. It is a good buy and a great gun

I have been working with this gun for a year now. I work with pine sideing a lot. There is not a better gun out there. The depth ajustment is very accurate. I have the trigger that only lets you fire once so I have never had a double fire. I highly recommend this gun and trigger.

As a professional house-builder I am VERY impressed with this gun. It shoots through the hardest oak with no problem. Like all pneumatic nail guns, it can be touchy in the hands of someone who doesn't know how to use it. All nail guns will "double shoot" if not handled properly. My only advise would be to practice until you are comfortable using the gun, or stick to a hammer.

This product has performed flawlessly for me. The depth adjustment is really easy to adjust. I have had no problems with double-firing or jams. I am using Senco/Accuset nails and they have worked perfectly. The tool is well made and sturdy. I highly recommend it.

I bought this gun to do finish work in the dining room. I am pleased with it so far, no jams no other problems. It took a little getting used to as I have never used a "Fire Restricted" trigger that comes stock on this gun. I was used to the "Bump Fire" type trigger so it took a little getting used to to get the trim in tight to the wall first then pull the trigger. Small issue in an other wise great tool. I read that the bump fire trigger is available from the Manufacurer for free, so I may order it. Porter Cable has yet to let me down in it's tools.
