Hey everyone! I just ordered a DWF83PT and noticed it mentions 'paper collated.' I'm a bit confused and wanted to ask if this model can also work with plastic collated nails. Any insights would be appreciated!

Unfortunately, you can't use plastic collated nails with the DWF83PT. This model is specifically designed for 30 degree paper collated nails, as indicated by the 'PT' in its name, which stands for paper tape. If you need plastic collated, you'd want to look at the DWF83PL model instead. Also, plastic collated nails typically come in a 21 degree angle, which wouldn't fit either.

Thanks for clarifying! Do you think the DWF83PL would be a better choice for framing a garage?
