The nail gun is to be used in tight spaces where hammers, pneumatic nail guns, and portable nail guns will not fit. The intended market is for homeowners renovating their houses. The short length and lightweight, compact frame make the CNG7 ideal for this market. The CNG7 is designed with minimum material waste and fewer parts than other nail guns.ETDIn CopyrightNail GunCompactPortableThesis
