Recommended nail to hang T111 on a 2x4 shed? Better way of phrasing the question... Should I buy a 15 ga. nail gun... or a larger gun? Note: Have wife... must justify purchases... you know the drill... you all have helped before... ;)

I do not think 15ga will cut it -- use 2 3/8" nails -- 8d if I remember correctly -- your gonna need a framing nailer to shoot them
8p Galvanized Gun or hand nail Dave
I would either hammer or shoot a 8d nail. Ring shanked are a better choice....
This is a damn good reas> Recommended nail to hang T111 on a 2x4 shed?
I used Stormguard #6 ring shanks by Maze (Bottom of the page):
