Editorial Review:
Here's a tough-as-nails nailer and a hardworking compressor perfect for the professional carpenter. The framing nailer has a 75-nail capacity extruded aluminum magazine that Bostitch says will survive falls, though we didn't try that for ourselves. We can tell you, though, that even though it weighs 8 pounds, it balances well and doesn't strain the user. Depth adjusts easily, and hungry toe-nailing teeth really take hold for slip-free use. It reliably fires 2- to 3-1/2-inch clipped head nails for use in framing, sheathing, siding, fencing, trusses, decking, pallets and wood to masonry. Powering this nailer is a 2.5 horse, six-gallon oil-lube compressor. At six gallons, it's not huge, but for nailers, this is plenty. We like that it's ready to use right out of the box, with all the air line and accessories you need to get started. Maintenance is important: You'll need to open the drain valves a couple times a day and oil it in the morning and at noon, and it'll serve you well.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste
Customer Reviews: Avg. Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0  jason pare': 
Waited several weeks for delivery. Once I called on it it then showed up too late for a job. Packaging looked like it came via IRAQ. Compressor was covered in oil and all gauges smashed. After reading other reviews I learned that no matter what the brand these types of tools are being shipped damaged way too often. Amazon should address this. When you spend 500.00 plus on a tool and wait several weeks the last thing you want to do is open a destroyed item, then they tell you it will take another month or so... more info
Good Value and Good Quality: 
I was looking for a framing nailer combo to finish my basement because the thought of toe-nailing a few hundred linear feet of wall by hand didn't appeal to me at all (maybe I'm a wimp, I'll admit it). I originally ordered a Porter-Cable combo, but the delivery date kept getting pushed out, and after three weeks of waiting, I decided to buy this Bostitch.
I am very pleased that I did. It shipped immediately, and at the time I ordered, it came with a free cap stapler. I sold that on Amazon (sold in... more info Combo Pack is for the Pro: 
This set up represents a good value for the experienced user. Mine arrived with a broken gauge which they promptly sent another so no big deal. I missed getting a free finish nailer by a month which had been available as the same package - in my experience if you see a deal you like on Amazon don't wait too long ( for example now the Delta air cleaner on my dream list has gone up 50 bucks in two months...) to make the purchase.
Compressor comes with a 25 foot hose; too short for framing but you should... more info
