Hey everyone, I'm considering getting the DeWalt DCN920B nail gun, but I'm specifically looking for 3 1/2" nails. Does DeWalt manufacture these nails? I couldn't find a part number on their website. If they don't make them, what other brands of nails have you had success with in this nail gun? Thanks for any help!

I've been using Senco nails in all my nail guns, and they are really durable. They might cost a bit more, but you get what you pay for!
I really like DeWalt tools, but I had a tough time with their 21° nail guns; it was hard to get the nails to sink properly. I switched to Milwaukee, which performs great, but the price is a bit high. In the end, I opted for a Metabo HPT nailer, which works perfectly for 3 1/2" nails. I even found one on clearance at Lowe's for around $200 with the battery and charger!
I had good luck with Senco 3.5" nails. I ordered a case from a site like Nail Depot. To be honest, I prefer buying nails from brands that specialize in them, and DeWalt doesn't actually make nails, so I look elsewhere for quality.
