ok, 16 gauge nail gun seems to double tap every so often. I can be nailing and it will end up shooting two nails. Don't know if I screwed up or not but any ideas what is causing it?
I started using it the other night, ran out of nails, grabbed some more, could have sworn I got the 16 gauge, but grabbed the 18, jammed. Clear it put the right ones in it works fine. Next night works but the tip wasn't always springing back. Light touch would release it. Figure, well haven't oiled it for awhile. Drop a little oil down, works fine but now I occasionally get the two nails that I mention. Everything seems locked down. When it does this it sticks up less than 1/16th of an inch. When I tap it down I can see that there are two nails.
I've used a decent number of nail guns so I don't think it is my technique.
