Best Answer

It is a gun that shoots 3" to 3" in nails. It's used in rough framing for the structure of your home to connect 2x4/2x6/2x8 etc... to each other. You will also use it with 2" nails to attach sheathing to the framing. It is not used for finish work as the nails and nail heads are big and can split wood. It is used for strength.

A compressor which can provide 100 to 120 PSI (pounds per square inch) with sufficient flow (depends on the CFS [cubic feet per second] requirement of the nailer) will due.

Can a Nail gun be used with 2x4s?

Depends on the nail gun. A power nailer that is intended for applying siding or roofing shingles would not work, but heavier nailers are used for 2x4 lumber. Check the makers specifications for the nailer. And be careful- if it will drive a nail through a 2x4, it will drive a nail through you.ANS 2 -Actually, the framing nailer is one of the most common tools used in 2x 4 and 2x 6 building construction. Mine takes strips of 2 3/16 to 3 1/2 nails angled at 28-30 degrees. This is certainly the commonest nailer that I see anywhere in the construction industry. - And yes, they can be dangerous. Be careful.
