Bostitch N88rh


My N88 double shoots nails almost every other shot?

A. boom-nail, boom-nail, are you fighting the recoil, double tap, does this model have a sequential trigger available.
or
B. boom 2 nails. worn/bent drive pin? generic nails? have had a full case of nails that the angle was off just enough to screw things up.

from Bostich site
"The nailer’s lightweight design, powerful engine and ability to drive full round head framing nails makes it ideal for building with engineered lumber and drives into laminated beams with ease. "

Does this gun use clipped and full head nails?

If it has the gray colored trigger installed, it is sequential trip.

If it has the black colored trigger installed, it is contact trip.

And it shoots round head plastic collated 21* nails.
