It looks like these 316 stainless steel nails are working great until I put them in my Porter Cable 790 pistol. So I compared them to my original 18 gauge Porter Cable nails. After some observation and attention to detail, I note the following: 1) the uneven position of the nail heads in the nail strips. Some of the heads weren't straight or vertical for want of a better word; 2) glue residue (which seemed to be the biggest problem) along the edge of the nail; 3) Slightly shorter than a standard 18 gauge stud nail. So I scraped the remaining glue off the nail at the end of the strip and found that the gun could pierce multiple nails: I scraped the outside edge and the right and left sides of the nail. However, the gun would not have hit them all. I believe it was the nails that didn't have a bare head that caused a different amount of jamming. So if you own a cordless brad nailer with porter cord (PCC790 type 2) I would avoid these nails. They just don't work.
