I am looking deep deep into my minds eye and I see no resemblance between a nail gun and a AK 47 ::)

I don't have a picture of the AK-47 version, but here's the M-16 Dewalt nail gun ;-)

If they don't know what a nail gun looks like what makes you think they have ever seen a AK 47 :-\

The next thing you know "Hilti guns", fire 22 blanks with nail loads for concrete and terrazzo floors, will have a NICS check to purchase

Was it a overzealous employee? And/or just a dumb a** employee.
Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

I think I would rather be shot with a 22 then take a nail form a hilti... more so the ones that use 38 blanks.  I know from exp that if you don't put the retaining washer on they will go right thru the 2x4...  no 22 can do that.
I always break all the clay pigeons,  some times its even with lead.

Being shot with it isn't the worst part, the worst part is when the Paramedics use a cat's paw or claw hammer to take it out. YEOW!

you really can't pry those nails out( unless they are in the 2x4, the heads normally snap off)... you pretty much have to break the concreate by hitting them side to side.   ;D

It is open carry for nail guns, in Colorado. ;D

Unfortunately this is the kind of paranoia that afflicts many antis.  They don't know jack about firearms, just that they are "bad."  I know some people that you can't even talk to them about guns because they are that paranoid of them.  You would think you were trying to talk to them about participating in incest.
When the Heller decision was being discussed in the news, Juan Williams on FOX news was basically saying he was afraid of them, and more violence would result.  I doubt he has any shooting experience.  I once saw Dan Rather call an M-1 carbine that was shown in a video news clip an AK-47.
Of course an AK-47 probably has a bigger, more sensational fear factor with the antis and the general public.  Dan Rather knows the difference between the two, or at least he should having been a corespondent reporting from Viet Nam.
I find that accuracy in news reports both about firearms and firearms law in sorely lacking.  These people don't due their homework and background fact checking.
Geraldo Rivera doesn't seem to know that differant barrel lenghts are available for the AR platform and that LEO can have short barrel lenghts and full auto.
I'll stop ranting now.
