But hacks with nail guns, especially framing, can create a call-back nightmare in un-nailed sheathing throughout a building, in no time.
In this thread, nail guns are sort of analogous to the power winders used by some photographers, back when. In the hands of skilled pro's, they probably put the new tool to good use. In the hands of hacks, they just made many, many more, bad photos.
