I have a Canwood Industrial Nail gun CNW 30517 No. 0000128 and I would like to know if it uses 28 or 31 degree stick nails. There is another number, 02.87~03.4, above a symbol of a nail. I am not sure what this means either.

I cannot find any references on the gun other than the above numbers.

It is a framing gun.

Anyone know?

Thanks,

Joe

Searching Canwood Industies, I found a tool site that carries their product. House of Tools - Warranty (http://www.houseoftools.com/content/houseoftoolscom/information/warranty.htm#warranty02)

The nail symbol is for minimum length---2-7/8" long, and maximum length---3-3/8" long. Be safe, G

There is also a nail length on the gun 50-90mm or 2"-3 1/2".

I have tried contacting House of tools and they have never answered my emails.

I would think that one could put an adjustable sliding t-bevel on the magazine, turn it until it's parallel with the nose of the gun, and then figure out the angle based on that.
