      Force = Mass * Acceleration.

      A nail gun does not have the same amount of explosive power that a shotgun does, and it is typically mechanically limited to driving the nail head flush with the surface of whatever it’s attached to.

      Shotguns do not have the precision or the initial driving force of a nail gun but they have a lot more follow-through when they do hit.
