Overview
The Freeman PCN65 is a pneumatic coil nailer weighing 6.5 pounds, built to run off shop air rather than a battery. Freeman's coil nailers target framing and sheathing work where high nail capacity matters more than cordless convenience.
Coil nailers like the PCN65 trade the smaller magazine of a strip nailer for a coil-fed drum that holds far more fasteners, cutting down on reload stops during framing or decking runs. Freeman positions its pneumatic line as a lower-cost alternative to the major nailer brands, aimed at contractors and serious DIYers who already have a compressor.

Who it's for
Framers, deck builders and remodelers who already run an air compressor on site. Anyone without a compressor or hose setup will need to add that cost before this tool is usable.
Pros and cons
- Coil magazine holds more fasteners than strip nailers
- Reasonable 6.5 pound weight for overhead use
- Suited to high-volume framing and sheathing work
- Requires an air compressor and hose to operate
- No nail size or PSI specs listed
Performance notes
As a pneumatic tool, the PCN65 depends entirely on the compressor supplying it, so its real-world driving power tracks the air pressure and volume available rather than any onboard motor. At 6.5 pounds it sits in the typical range for a full-size coil framing nailer, light enough for overhead work but substantial enough to handle repeated firing.
