Abstract

A nail-driving gun includes a safety rod disposed movably on a front end of a barrel, and a trigger member disposed movably on a handle. Upon actuation of the safety rod and the trigger member, the barrel shoots a nail therefrom. When the safety rod is pressed against a wall prior to actuation of the trigger member, the gun can be operated in a single shot mode, in which the safety rod is prevented from returning to its original position due to a positioning pin that is attached movably to the trigger member. When the safety rod is pressed against the wall after actuation of the trigger member, the gun can be operated in a continuous shooting mode. The safety rod and the trigger member are actuated by one hand that holds the handle.
