| Hello,
Just bought a new nail gun that uses 34 degree nails. These exact nails seem to be very difficult to find in stores. I read on a review of the product that other nails with close enough angles have been used with success. I have seen 33 degree nails at Rona and similar stores at a good price. Will 33 degree nails work OK without damaging my nail gun? Thanks for your help. Jacques. |

| I'm not going to be able to help you either way, but you should probably post the brand and model# of the gun you bought. |

| My guess that nails designed for the gun would be your best bet. Where are looking? You might need to find a store that caters to the building trades. Does the manufacturer have a list of dealers in your area? |

| I suspect that any nail that's collated in the same way (wire/plastic/paper) that's very close to the right angle will work. Probably the only way to know for sure is to try a strip, so ask in advance if you can return the almost full box. |
