Customer Reviews

Got it, used it, love it!!
Well, after reading all the reviews and checking them out in person at local suppliers, I bought the Makita AN611. Sweet!!!!

It's about 1 pound lighter than the Bostitch, makes it easier to carry and use. It load easily and operating it is quite easy. I was especially impressed with the ability to adjust the depth setting of the nails without needing a tool. I'm working with cedar. I drove a few and make my adjustment and drove some more. No muss, no fuss.

Love a tool that lives up to it's billing. Mine cost $350. at a local supplier. For that amount of money, when I'm done I can resell it for 50% and feel great.

Best engineered nailer ever!
I needed a siding nailer for Hardiplank siding. After reading a few reviews I opted to try the Makita AN611. This nailer is absolutely the best engineered nailer I have come across. I own several Porter Cable, Bostitch, Dewalt and Bosch pneumatic nailers and staplers and each have their plus and minuses. The Makita has NO minuses I can find.
Canister loading is a snap, and the hinged head eliminated any need for disassembly of the head should it jamb (shouldn't be a problem for this tool).
Depth setting are plentifully (9 settings) and easily accessible.
Very convenient selector provides sequential or bounce fire. No changing of triggers or mechanical adjustments.
Exhaust adjustable 360 deg.
Rubber guard on housing to protect tool and eliminate scratching of surfaces.
Relatively light considering the quality.
Nice rubber grip and well balanced.
I have often wrestled with tools and surmise that the engineers that designed the tool never actually had to use it.
The folks at Makita have got this one right!
It's a bit pricy, but it is a specialty tool and other siding nailers are comparably priced. This one also comes with a case, another bonus...

Flawless Nailer
I spent a few days researching coil siding nailers. I needed a nailer that could do both cedar shingles as well as siding. After researching all of the guns, this one fell into a mid range price with excellent reviews. I bought the gun and it is extremely reliable and works great. It is lightweight, has perfect balance, and can be handled for hours. It took 5 minutes to make the depth adjustments on the material and the gun fired each and every nail perfectly. My only disappointment was that there were no local dealers. At first getting nails seemed a challenge. However, once you tell the local suppliers that type of nail to get, just about everyone stocks the nails. Another great choice for nails is the web, where I saved 35% ordering via the web.
