The nails work fine but were sent in a flimsy plastic box which broke in transit. As a result, the nails fell into the shipping envelope and some of the strips were torn. Many nails cannot be loaded into the nail gun and are useless. If I wasn't in a hurry to finish the job I would have sent it back. Those 316 stainless steel nails are expensive and it annoys me that so much is wasted. An old-fashioned cardboard box would be a better container.
