the paselode is the gun to go with, but it's heavy and retails around 400.00. It's a first class tank.
the bostich is ok, much lighter, but feels like it'll break easier, I bought one for around 200.00 and it still works, not to high on bostich guns though. but the price.......
never used the hitachi or the adapters you can put on framing guns.

The OP is about guns that shoot joist hanger nails, not framing guns. They are not very much $. Sometimes refered to as palm nailers.
It's not 4 nails, it's 400 +/- on larger decks. As has been proven w/ framing guns, using a gun is much faster than hand nailing. Joists can be nailed w/ 2 1/2" Tecos using the Hitachi. That's 8 nails per hanger driven by a gun in a matter of seconds. To say nothing of elbow wear and tear from swinging a hammer (and the occasional bashed fingertip!)It doesn't take me very long to hand bang four Tico nails in a joist hanger, the ones in the joists have to be hand banged anyway with 16's.
